On April 1, the YouTube channel Mdromeda Studio uploaded the seventh episode of 'Reckless Dining' under the title "Tell Me Your Wish – Cooking for Girls’ Generation."

During the episode, Ji Ye Eun revealed herself to be a devoted fan of Girls’ Generation, expressing her excitement at Hyoyeon’s appearance.

She shared, "I still remember how I used to rush home in middle school to watch 'Girls’ Generation Goes to School.' I had Girls’ Generation photos on my pencil case, and during lunchtime, I would play their songs and dance."

Hyoyeon playfully asked, "What dances do you know?" Ji Ye Eun then performed "Beginning," a track from Girls’ Generation’s first full-length album, singing along as she danced. Hyoyeon was impressed, saying, "That song is from 18 years ago, and even I barely remember it—you're a true fan!"

At one point, the production staff mentioned, "Didn’t you once dream of becoming a Girls’ Generation member?" To this, Hyoyeon asked, "What role do you think Ye Eun could have taken?"

When Ji Ye Eun responded, "The maknae," Hyoyeon subtly referenced former member Jessica, saying, "There was a spot available. One position was open..."

Jessica departed from Girls’ Generation in 2014. Since leaving SM Entertainment, she has been active under Coridel Entertainment, balancing her singing career with her fashion brand business. While she no longer actively promotes in Korea, she continues her activities across Asia.

Notably, in August last year, while Girls’ Generation members gathered to celebrate their 17th anniversary, Jessica marked the occasion alone, drawing attention.
