Haru*Hana Magazine - March 2019 issue

Lee Chaeyeon
DOB: 11th January 2000, Blood type: A

What do you want the fans to call you as?
<Feather Chaeyeon> because there’s a phrase, “Hane-chan”? or just calling me by my name, Chaeyeonie, is also good. Hane-chan is also cute.
(T/N: Hane means feather in Japanese)

When was your first time performing in front of people?
I showed my dancing for the first time during sports/field day when I was a middle school student. That time, I did a cover of Secret sunbaenim’s Madonna together with my friends.

When was the first time you told the people around you that you wanted to be an idol singer?
I told my parents for the first time when I was 12 years old. At first, I liked being a dancer more than being a singer. As I dance, naturally, being a singer became my goal. My parents didn’t disapprove and instead they cheered and supported me.

The first-most member that you got close to?
During PRODUCE 48, I got close to Saku-chan. While we were in A class, I saw her looking anxious and asked, "Are you okay? Are you tired?” and from there, we started talking more. From that time onwards, we practiced <Nekkoya> together and I thought that she really is a hard worker.

If you were to go on a holiday in Korea with WIZ*ONEs, where would you want to go?
I want to go to Haeundae beach in Busan. There, I want to eat raw fish together, showcase our performances, or otherwise I want to see WIZ*ONEs do a talent show (laughs).

- Members describing Chaeyeon -

Yujin: Merry-go-round
She’s considerate towards everyone around her, and somewhat her soft image reminds me of one.

Sakura: Potato
When she’s first rooted firmly in the soil, you can’t see anything on the ground during that time, but you’ll eventually see her bloom flowers and bear fruits.
(T/N: Sakura described Chaeyeon’s charms as flowers and fruits)

Eunbi: Cotton flower
She exudes a warm and enveloping feeling. She’s very considerate.

Chaewon: Energy drink
She looks refreshing when she dances with her long arms and legs.

Hyewon: Feather
She looks very light like a feather when she dances.

Wonyoung: Feather pen
Her nickname is ‘feather’ and also because she dances really well.

Yena: Red bean water
Chaeyeon drinks red bean water everyday, so every time I look at her, she reminds me of red bean water.

Nako: Maidenhair/Ginko tree
She has a calm aura.
