You guys know G-Idle, right?

I mean, how could you not?




There have been a couple of shockers with this group. Originally, it was a shock to the fans that the group's name was pronounced Idle, and not G-Idle, despite that being their name.
Now just recently I was scrolling through the Youtube comments for Senorita, where I found this comment.

Oo-ki? :sanathink:

So I did some detective research. Top secret, mind you. I searched through G-Idle videos and pointed out the parts of sentences where they said her name. Looked at youtube videos on how to pronounce her name. Read the hangul. And it was all in fact correct. Her name is in fact not pronounced Yu-ki, but Oo-ki.

You learn something new everyday. I always pronounce most names wrong, especially Asian ones. : D
Thanks for clearing this up, Because I was looking at the name like O.o <------- the entire time reading your op.

That's quite similar to Dowoon. It's not pronouced Do-woon, but Do-oon. Oo-ki, not Yoo-ki. It did throw me off a bit at first though haha
