Yuqi, a member of the popular K-pop group (G)I-DLE, appeared on KBS2's 'The Seasons - 10CM's Heart-Warming' (hereinafter 'The Seasons') and showcased her diverse charms as a solo artist.

Introduced by 10CM, Yuqi kicked off her performance with a sweet rendition of 'Always Remember Us This Way,' the OST from the movie 'A Star Is Born,' captivating the audience with her smooth vocals. She later revealed her past as a hip-hop dancer, who passed her audition with that skill, and expressed her affection for hip-hop, which she had kept hidden since her debut.

Notably, Yuqi spontaneously created a rap name with 10CM and even played the guitar herself while performing 'Love is Six Lines' together, creating a special harmony. She also passionately sang her self-composed rock song 'Hurts,' conveying deep emotions, and later delivered a powerful hip-hop swag performance with the title track 'M.O.' from her solo single, receiving an enthusiastic response.

The title track 'M.O.' from Yuqi's first single 'Motivation' quickly climbed the charts both domestically and internationally upon its release, signaling a successful start to her solo career.

Yuqi serves as the main rapper and sub-vocalist for (G)I-DLE, significantly contributing to the group's musical identity with her exceptional rap skills and distinctive vocal tone. She actively participates in songwriting and composition, further developing her capabilities as a singer-songwriter. Yuqi is also often referred to by fans as a 'vitamin' due to her consistently bright and energetic demeanor.
