Previously in April, Sunmi found herself embroiled in a controversy regarding her attitude at the airport, after reportes accused her of shunning them in embarrassment. Sunmi then went on her Instagram and clarified: “I didn’t know there would be reporters because that was a personal schedule. I didn’t bring any manager and only went with my younger brothers, and so couldn’t communicate well. I’m sorry. I was always bright at the airport, but I was so embarrassed this time.

The controversy soon drew attention from the public, with some defending Sunmi as the reporters were intruding on her private schedules, while others threw criticisms at her. 

Now, at her comeback showcase, Sunmi finally reunited with the reporters after 2 months, and delivered an outstanding performance with an extremely bright and energetic appearance. The female idol also took a little longer for the photoshoot time, even asking the reporters: “What more can I do?

Reporters also came up with the term “Sunmi Pop” for songs with a musical color unique to only Sunmi. At this, the female soloist said: “Recently, I’ve been thinking deeply about the definition of ‘Sunmi Pop’. It seems to be distinguishable. Even with bright and exciting music, there always seems to be a feeling of sadness in some way. The songs are really fresh and bright, but I feel a cool energy somehow. I think this is the musical element that truly distinguishes ‘Sunmi Pop’ from other songs.

I think there are many people who have been with me since I was young. I’m very grateful for that.
