Seoyeon Thought She Was Doomed.
As mentioned, Seoyeon rarely had opportunities to appear on Japanese television.
In other words, there were very few chances to fix her image if something went wrong.
The last time she appeared on a variety show in Japan, it was before she became widely known.
But this time was different.
Her various recent activities, combined with the buzz from Kyungsung Lady, had significantly increased public interest in her.
In fact, for most Japanese viewers, this variety show was likely their first proper impression of Ju Seoyeon.
