In a broadcast, THIS singer drew attention as she acknowledged that (G)I-DLE Miyeon looks like her. Can they pass as long-lost sisters?

On February 18, KBS 2TV's "Boss in the Mirror" featured Park Ki Ryang, a soloist-turned-cheerleader. As a brief background about her, she debuted in 2016 as a singer with "Lucky Charm."

Despite decent success, she reached the height of her career after transitioning to cheerleading and is now Korea's best and most popular cheerleader.

Park Ki Ryang Reacts on (G)I-DLE Miyeon's Uncanny Similarities With Her

In the show, Park Ki Ryang was shown during her cheerleading team's routine rehearsal with Deep N Dap Mina Myoung.

In particular, the team and the cheerleader were practicing their new cheer song to (G)I-DLE's "Queencard" when Park claimed:

"I've heard that there is someone who looks like me in (G)I-DLE."

Hearing this, Park's teammates agreed and made remarks such as:

"You do look like Miyeon."

Park Ki Ryang, who confirmed that she was aware of the comparison between them continued:

"She does give off that vibe. When she debuted, some articles said Miyeon looked like me a lot. But in my opinion,  when I saw her, I didn't think that she looked like me."

Hearing this, Park's teammates disagree and said:

• "There is definitely a resemblance. Aren't you both incredibly beautiful?"
• "You do look like Miyeon."

However, Ki Ryang jokingly corrected:

"Since I was born before her, it's more appropriate to say that Miyeon looks like me."

Park Ki Ryang, who is also known for her outgoing personality drew laughter by confidently saying:

"It’s flattering to be compared to someone as pretty as Miyeon. But I don't think that Miyeon who resembles someone as pretty as me is bad either."

Park Ki Ryang Opens Up About Activities as Singer

While Park Ki Ryang initially debuted as a singer before cheerleading, she confessed hardships she experienced that led her to focus on her current career and leave the music scene earlier.

"When I rose to popularity in the past, I was offered to launch an album. I didn't only dance, but I also sang ballad."

She continued:

"At that time, I shared the cost with the company, and it cost 100 million won ($75k). I spent all the money I had saved at that time."

Although she risked all of her savings, her debut wasn't completely well-received by the music industry. She then started anew with cheerleading and confessed she was initially criticized and people predicted that she would fail again.

"More than my debut as a singer, I took on the challenge with the mindset of opening a path for younger cheerleaders, but I am upset because people around me keep telling me that I failed.”

However, she proved them wrong by having a skyrocketing career in cheerleading by working with various teams. Now, she created her name as one of the best cheerleaders.
