The Channel S entertainment show ‘Playing With Sister’, which will be aired for the first time on the 28th, depicts the first meeting of five female singers, including Chae Ri-na, Lee Ji-hye, Ivy, Narsha, and Choa.

On this day, Choa picks up each of the older sisters who are ‘seniors in the music industry’ and moves to the venue for the unity rally. At this time, Lee Ji-hye asks Ivy, “She was all from a group, but Ivy was a solo singer, so I guess there must have been something different about her.”

Ivy said, “I’m lucky that there are no disputes (between members) since I’m alone,” and “I was surprised to see girl groups fighting in the practice room in the past.”

When the word ‘conflict’ was mentioned, Lee Ji-hye turned to Ivy, who made eye contact with her, and said, “You’re talking about me, right?”, and started talking about the conflict with Seo Ji-young, a former member of the same group.
Amid bursts of laughter, ‘eldest sister’ Chae Rina also continued her self-destructive jokes, praising Ivy by saying, “Ivy stood out so much since her debut. Her visuals were unrivaled,” and then lightly hitting Ji-hye Lee’s knee, saying, “We were a little disappointed with our faces.” He says.
In response, Narsha asks to be told exactly who ‘we’ are, and Chae Rina replies, “Narsha, you should join ‘us’ too.”
Meanwhile, the members who arrived at the accommodation gathered in a garden full of hydrangeas and had brunch time. At this time, the five members become closer as they reveal the story of how they each became a singer and the behind-the-scenes moments of their prime. Chae Rina is especially curious about the debut story of youngest member Choa.
Choa confesses, “When I was a high school student, the company I was a trainee at closed down, so I worked part-time in IPTV sales for a while.” Although she had a hard time becoming a member of a girl group, she candidly reveals the emptiness and burnout she felt after gaining popularity, the issue of her leaving the group, and how she felt during her hiatus.
After hearing the story, the four people send sincere sympathy and encouragement as seniors in the music industry, and Choa strengthens her resolve by saying, “I will work hard and create Leeds from now on.”
