Jiu Facts
She was raised in Daejeon alongside her younger brother.
Her name in English is Lily.
Growing up, she listened to a lot of songs by the girl group Fin.K.L which eventually tweaked her musical passion at an early age.
Jiu is one of the 5 members that were initially chosen to form the girl group MINX. The other 4 members were SuA, Yoohyeon, Siyeon, and Dami. Later, in November 2016 after MINX had been defunct, it was announced that Happy Face Entertainment had included singer and dancer Handong as well as Gahyeon into the group and relaunched the girl group under the title Dreamcatcher
As a part of MINX, Jiu contributed her vocals to the release of its debut single album under the title Why Did You Come to My Home on September 22, 2014.

In the past, she was ranked number 95 on the survival show Mix Nine.
She made her first acting appearance in a cameo role in the short web drama, Hororong Story in 2016.
She enjoys going shopping and scavenging for tasty but healthy food, especially seafood roles. Besides that, Jiu also likes to wander about while listening to music.
Jiu is very much into dancing.
She prefers to not go overboard with her makeup and applies cosmetics that appeal to her natural beauty.
Jiu is very close to her parents and once stated that if she could live like anyone it would be just the way her parents live.
She is not much of a movie or TV series buff.
If she could change one habit about herself it would be to not try and finish up leftover food on the table even though she is full.
Jiu would like to travel across the world on tour with the Dreamcatcher girl group.
During an interview conducted in June 2017, Jiu stated that she would like to receive a “newcomer’s award”.
