Recently, in an exclusive interview with Allure Korea, the leader and lead vocalist of the popular Asian girl group TWICE – Jihyo continued to show her love for League of Legends, when she asserted that the game itself is which brought joy to her after hours of intense activities as a female idol. Excerpts from an interview on Allure:
When Jihyo gets home after completing yet another grueling day of being Jihyo — international pop superstar and main vocalist of South Korea’s best-selling girl group, TWICE — she changes into her coziest pajamas, ties her hair up, slips on her wire-frame, blue-light-protection glasses, and delves into the world of League of Legends. In the game, players join an ensemble of misfit “champions” who battle to dominate a map.
But that’s after this interview. Jihyo still has 45 minutes left today to be Jihyo, the leader of an ensemble of gorgeous idols singing and dancing in hopes of conquering the world. We’re inside a windowless photo studio on a tranquil, residential hill in Seoul’s fastest-paced neighborhood, Gangnam. Around us, the windows of plastic surgeons’ offices and home-decor stores glitter into the evening. In the process of un-becoming Jihyo, the idol is peeling off her custom crystallized Unistella stick-on nails one by one and stacking them like tiny pancakes. Just 15 minutes ago, those nails coordinated with lilac, geode-like lids and a printed seafoam organza high-low blouse that Jihyo swirled in like she was filming the promo for flamenco night on a Korean version of Dancing With the Stars.
The moment she entered the public eye, Jihyo became the internet’s focal point, her life constantly being picked apart: her word choices, weight, facial expressions, relationships. She is probably aware I’m doing it to her right now. Soon she’ll be in her happy place: at home with League of Legends. Online gaming lets the 23-year-old return to anonymity, even if it’s only for a few moments a week. “I’m always tense and cautious about how people see me. But when I’m playing online games, I can feel the truest to myself,” she says through an interpreter, sinking back into her chair and clasping her hands. “Nobody can judge me through [the screen]. That’s why I feel most comfortable.”
In fact, the story of Jihyo playing League of Legends has been discovered for a long time by the fan community, but due to respect for the singer’s small privacy, the gamers are not too keen on finding info her at the Korean server.

A lovely story of Jihyo when she first entered the Summoner’s Rift was when she told fans that she was “scolded” because she was just starting to play and was too bad, without knowing that it was actually just a provocative line that Riot pre-programmed in the Bot.
