Oh My Girl member Mimi reveals the moving behind-the-scenes of her first solo launch 11 years after debut, commanding the studio.
Today (the 2nd) at 10:30 p.m., MBC's Radio Star will be featured as a "K-예능 The Odyssey 2026" special with Ryu Seung-su, Cho Hye-lyeon, Kasamatsu Sho and Mimi appearing.
That day Mimi shared her feelings about embarking on her first solo activities 11 years after debut and unleashed the behind-the-scenes of her new song in which she poured everything she wanted to do. She raised expectations by revealing that she incorporated into this album the DJing skills she cultivated for a full three years after starting it as a hobby as a key point. Then, when she gave an impromptu lesson on the key choreography of the new song in the studio, Ryu Seung-su, Cho Hye-lyeon and even Japanese actor Kasamatsu Sho all stood up and began dancing on their shoulders as if spellbound, creating a spectacular scene.
Mimi's surprising "otaku" daily life was also revealed. Mimi, who dreamed of becoming a cartoonist as a child, reportedly owns more than 1,000 comic books and sometimes coolly buys about 100 at a time, astonishing everyone.
In particular, an unexpected side effect(?) caused by her intense love of comics and a "born single" talk followed, turning the scene into a sea of laughter. Mimi took it upon herself at the scene to verify with Kasamatsu Sho whether the immutable romance formula in Japanese shoujo manga is real, and the two's strangely exciting chemistry, like a scene from a shoujo manga, reportedly heated up the studio.
She also showed off an unusual "dessert glutton" side. Mimi confessed an extraordinary appetite, saying she has eaten up to 15 ice creams a day and up to six cream buns at once, and said that thanks to this love of desserts she even became a judge on a bakery survival show. She went on to reveal her own "favorite cream bun combination," which embarrassed the cast, and an impromptu tasting was held on the spot, piquing curiosity.
Meanwhile, Mimi suddenly released her first solo single "Bish Bash Bosh" on the 20th of last month. As her first solo single 11 years after debut, Mimi not only showed a new side but also consolidated a firm identity by bringing together the musical capabilities she has built up.
"Bish Bash Bosh" emphasizes the core keywords "ready," "self-assurance" and "bold energy" and captures the true side of artist Mimi. It is a hip-hop track featuring a heavy break-beat-based rhythm and bass, and Mimi added authenticity by participating directly in the overall production as well as writing and composing.
