The group had a unique concept of having a limited time contract. The aim was to have all members gain experience, build a fanbase, and hopefully return to their original agencies with a slight boost. After nearly three years of shared music and experiences,

該組合有一個獨特的概念，即簽訂限時合同。目的是讓所有成員積累經驗，建立粉絲群，並希望在稍有起色的情況下回到原來的經紀公司。經過近三年的共同音樂和經歷、

IZ'ONE disbanded on the 29th of April 2021, allowing each member to embark on their own career path. It's been three years and six months since IZ'ONE disbanded, and a lot has changed.

IZ'ONE 於 2021 年 4 月 29 日解散，每位成員都開始了自己的職業生涯。IZ'ONE 解散至今已有三年零六個月，發生了很多變化。

If every member went under the Nugu radar, I wouldn't be making this video. But surprisingly, they're all doing really well. Some definitely more than others, but with the original goal of the group in mind, this might've been the best possible outcome. Back in the days I wouldn't think the group was that impactful, but with where we are now, it's kind of crazy how IZ'ONE's presence is still prominent today. I'm not saying they weren't popular at the time,

如果每個成員都在努谷的雷達之下，我就不會製作這個視頻了。但出乎意料的是，他們都做得很好。有些人肯定比其他人做得更好，但考慮到這個組合最初的目標，這可能是最好的結果。在過去，我並不覺得這個組合有多大影響力，但在我們現在的位置上，IZ'ONE 的存在至今仍很突出，這有點瘋狂。我並不是說他們當時不受歡迎、

I just didn't think three years later we would still feel their influence even after all that's happened. This video is from a WIZONE's perspective, so if you're looking for a simple rundown of the members' current careers, this might not be your thing. There are plenty of boring videos and TikToks out there if that's what you want. But if you're looking for something funny, light, and maybe a little emotional, from the eyes of a fan, then this video is for you.

我只是沒想到，三年後的今天，我們依然能感受到他們的影響力。這段視頻從 WIZONE 的角度出發，所以如果你想簡單瞭解成員們目前的職業生涯，這可能不是你的菜。如果你想看無聊的視頻和 TikToks，外面還有很多。但如果你想從一個粉絲的眼中尋找一些有趣、輕鬆、也許還有點情感的東西，那麼這個視頻就是為你準備的。

My name is Winter Rosie, and I've got a lot to say. But before I say any of those things, let me tell you about today's sponsor, Fashion Chingu. If you've been watching me, you probably know who they are by now. But if you don't, let me sum it up to just three words.

我叫 Winter Rosie，我有很多話要說。但在我說這些話之前，請允許我向大家介紹一下今天的贊助商--Fashion Chingu。如果你一直在看我的節目，你可能已經知道他們是誰了。但如果你不知道，那就讓我用三個詞來概括吧。

Their time in IZONE became a part of their past, and as they each stepped back into the spotlight, it was their chance to show how much they'd grown as reborn idols. Of course I had to begin with mother herself. A lot of us expected at least half of the group to debut as soloists, and personally that was a worry for me. Being a soloist in the K-pop industry is not for everyone, and when

在 IZONE 的時光已成為她們過去的一部分，當她們各自重新回到聚光燈下時，這是她們展示自己作為重生偶像成長的機會。當然，我不得不從媽媽本人說起。我們中的很多人都希望至少有一半的成員能以獨唱歌手的身份登場，而我個人對此也很擔心。在 K-pop 行業中，並不是每個人都能成為獨唱歌手。

I used to look at the lineup, I only really thought 2 or 3 members would be able to make it as one.

我以前看陣容時，真的以為只有 2 或 3 名成員能合二為一。

But whoever they were, I think we can all agree that one of them had to be Eunbi. From her first ever group to Produce 48, to IZONE, and now to her solo career, it's safe to say she carries herself very well. She's always been a favorite, someone who I believe really deserved to be on the final lineup. She shows immense skills, talents, entertainment, visuals, a genuine character, and quite literally everything that makes an ideal idol. As for her solo music, I wouldn't say I'm always her biggest fan, but when I do enjoy it, it's genuinely amazing. Tracks like Door, Underwater,

但無論他們是誰，我想我們都會同意，其中之一一定是 Eunbi。從她的第一個組合到 Produce 48，到 IZONE，再到現在的個人事業，可以說她的表現非常出色。她一直是我的最愛，我認為她真的配得上進入最終陣容。她展現了無與倫比的技能、才華、娛樂性、視覺效果、真性情，以及成為理想偶像的一切條件。至於她的個人音樂，我不敢說我總是她的忠實歌迷，但當我喜歡她的音樂時，她的音樂確實讓人驚歎。像《Door》、《Underwater》這樣的歌曲、

The Flash, and Glitch are some of the best K-pop songs I've heard, and even some of her b-sides like

The Flash 和 Glitch 是我聽過的最好的 K-pop 歌曲，甚至她的一些副歌，如

Proquis and Magnetic are great. And when it comes to on-stage skills, she's always been a performer, and you could never take that away from her. You look at her and you immediately see that she's someone who knows what they're doing. She's a pro, she's a veteran, and she definitely deserves to be an idol.

Proquis 和 Magnetic 都很棒。說到舞臺技巧，她一直都是一個表演者，這一點你永遠無法從她身上抹去。你看她一眼，就會發現她是一個知道自己在做什麼的人。她是一個職業演員，她是一個老手，她絕對配得上成為偶像。

Yuri has had quite the career. Her journey actually started with a different survival show called Idol School, which had formed the group Fromis 9. She unfortunately got eliminated, and continued training under Wake 1 Entertainment. Eventually she went to produce 48, and I guess you could say the rest was history. I might have forgotten, but I'm sure there were some talks that Stone Music had plans for a girl group that Yuri would join after IZ1. But looking back at it, that was probably just Kekla. So basically she had nowhere to go but solo. I was skeptical at first, because I thought, how is this little kid going solo? She's going to die out there. But then I remembered, this girl can hit a note or two. Easily one of the most recognizable tones of the generation, and like I said is able to sing fucking well. With that in mind, I just had to wait for the music itself. And holy shit was it amazing too. Release after release after release, this girl didn't stop. I love all the soloists for sure, but if I had to choose whose music was the best, no doubt I'd give it to Yuri. Only problem is, she is never here. Look, as a whiz one, I'm used to Yuri just disappearing once in a while. But this is just ridiculous. I would understand if you were starring in the second season of the biggest Korean drama ever made.

Yuri 的職業生涯相當輝煌。她的演藝之路其實是從另一檔生存節目《偶像學校》開始的，該節目曾組建了 Fromis 9 組合。最後，她參加了《48》的製作，我想你可以說剩下的就是歷史了。我可能忘了，但我肯定有一些說法，說石頭音樂計劃讓 Yuri 在 IZ1 之後加入一個女子組合。但現在回想起來，那可能只是 Kekla 的計劃。所以，她基本上只能單飛。一開始我很懷疑，因為我想，這個小姑娘怎麼能單飛呢？她會死在那裡的但後來我想起來，這個女孩能彈出一兩個音符。她是這一代人中最有辨識度的音色之一，就像我說的，她唱得

But come on, I'd love to hear more music.

但拜託，我想聽更多的音樂。

Yujin has proven a bajillion times that she is a K-pop idol through and through.

Yujin 已經無數次證明，她是一個徹頭徹尾的 K-pop 偶像。

It's actually mind boggling how good she is at everything that I don't know where to start.

事實上，她在所有方面都做得很好，讓人匪夷所思，我都不知道該從何說起。

She is an insane performer and entertainer to say the least. And in my opinion, she's one of the best results to come out of the IZONE project. Thing is, she's always been good. We've all seen the potential she had during IZONE. But I guess what really makes her shocking now is how much of a fucking monster she is on stage. This girl is overflowing with charisma and skill, only comparable to professionals. Like a level 100 player going through tutorial, she is fucking everything and everyone up all the time. Not to mention her growth from being the second youngest member to the leader of IVE of all groups. As a whiz one, I always saw her as that playful girl everyone adores. And now as a dive, I don't think I'd even try to look at her direction.

可以說，她是一個瘋狂的表演者和藝人。在我看來，她是 IZONE 項目的最佳成果之一。問題是，她一直都很優秀。我們都看到了她在 IZONE 期間的潛力。但我想，現在真正讓她令人震驚的是，她在舞臺上是一個多麼該死的怪物。這個女孩的魅力和技巧無與倫比，只有職業選手才能與之媲美。她就像一個 100 級的玩家在學習教程一樣，無時無刻不在破壞著每件事和每個人。更不用說她從所有組合中第二年輕的成員成長為 IVE 的領導者。作為一個小天才，我一直把她看作是大家都喜歡的俏皮女孩。而現在作為一名潛水員，我想我甚至都不會去看她

Well of course she's obviously the same person, but you can't deny the aura change after all she's been through. I know most people talk about how drastic Chaewon's transformation was, but personally,

當然，她顯然還是原來的她，但你不能否認她經歷了這麼多之後，氣場發生了變化。我知道大多數人都在說彩媛的轉變有多大 但就我個人而言

I thought Yujin's was crazier. I really hope more people get to acknowledge her as an idol.

我覺得鬱金香更瘋狂。我真的希望有更多的人承認她是偶像。

She's honestly one of the best doing it right now and I need y'all to see that.

老實說，她是目前做得最好的人之一，我需要你們都看到這一點。

I don't see a timeline in any dimension where Won Young didn't become an idol.

在任何時空裡，我都看不到元英沒有成為偶像的時間線。

She is the very definition of what an idol should be, and that is the reason why she is as popular as she is. Coming from someone who actually treats Won Young as a person, the thing that made her the biggest member to come out of IZ one is her mindset. She is honest to everything, to herself, and to everyone else. I'll always remember that one live she did years ago, where she basically just talked and gave some simple yet honest advices about life and stuff.

她是偶像應有的定義，這也是她如此受歡迎的原因。從一個真正把元英當人看的人來說，她之所以能成為 IZ one 最大的成員，是因為她的心態。她對一切都很坦誠，對自己坦誠，對大家也坦誠。我永遠記得幾年前她的那場現場直播，她基本上只是在哈拉，並就生活和其他事情給出了一些簡單而又誠實的建議。

And that, out of a lot more moments made me realize, whatever it is this girl wanted to do as a career, whether as an idol, a model, a news anchor, I knew she was going to live it the best way she can. We all know she's got the right skills to be an idol, but no one would call her the best at anything. So why is she so famous? That's just it, not everyone can be the best.

這讓我意識到，無論這個女孩想從事什麼職業，是偶像、模特還是新聞主播，我知道她都會以最好的方式去實現自己的夢想。我們都知道她有成為偶像的能力，但沒有人會說她在任何方面都是最棒的。那她為什麼這麼出名呢？就是這樣，不是每個人都能做到最好。

Won Young is someone who focuses on being the best version of herself, and I think a lot of people find that mindset inspiring. That's not even to discredit her as an artist. She's a great star on stage, she's held the pen and wrote music, she's a great entertainer, and ultimately someone who does her best with what she's given. I don't know what war Starship had to fight that they were lucky enough to get these two under them. This combination was an instant road to success.

元英是一個專注於做最好的自己的人，我想很多人都覺得這種心態很鼓舞人心。這並不是要貶低她的藝術家身份。她在舞臺上是一位偉大的明星，她曾執筆寫過音樂，她是一位偉大的藝人，歸根結底，她是一個盡其所能的人。我不知道 "星船號 "經歷了一場怎樣的戰爭，才有幸將這兩位納入麾下。這樣的組合是一條通往成功的捷徑。

And so I actually don't blame Starship for wanting IZ one to disband quicker than anyone else.

是以，我其實並不責怪 Starship 希望 IZ one 比其他人更快解散。

Like Tobi and Shaq, Spongebob and Patrick, Chae and Yeon, Yujin and Won Young will always be that duo.

就像 Tobi 和 Shaq、海綿寶寶和 Patrick、Chae 和 Yeon 一樣，Yujin 和 Won Young 永遠是那對組合。

I think we can all be honest and agree that Hyewon wasn't exactly the best idol, and so I was probably more curious about her route moving forward more than anyone.

我想大家都會坦誠地同意，蕙園並不是最好的偶像，所以我可能比任何人都更好奇她的發展路線。

To my surprise, she chose to release music. And to an even bigger surprise, the music was good.

令我驚訝的是，她選擇了發行音樂。更讓我驚喜的是，她的音樂很好聽。

It's nothing exciting or anything, but it's a nice little winter album for sure.

這不是什麼令人興奮的東西，但肯定是一張不錯的冬季小專輯。

She didn't promote in music shows or anything like that, but this little project made me think that she could make this a career. She may not be the best performer, but she could sing when she wanted to. A career where she just releases music from time to time would suffice, but I guess she had other choices. That one album was more like a gift to fans that wanted to hear her sing again, and I find that sweet. Maybe she came to a realization that the idol life just isn't for her, and to be honest that's probably the best choice. Even if I thought that she had potential to be better, it is ultimately up to her on what to do as long as it made her happy. Another clear path for her was acting, which she seems to be pursuing now. And if that doesn't work out, she could always model. With a face like that, a career is almost guaranteed. But ultimately, whatever path she chooses, as long as it makes her happy, that's a true win.

她並沒有在音樂節目或類似的活動中進行宣傳，但這個小項目讓我覺得，她可以把這當成自己的事業。她可能不是最好的表演者，但她想唱就能唱。她的職業生涯只需要不時發佈音樂就足夠了，但我想她還有其他選擇。那張專輯更像是給那些想再聽她唱歌的歌迷的禮物，我覺得這很貼心。也許她意識到偶像生活並不適合她，老實說，這也許是最好的選擇。即使我認為她有潛力做得更好，但最終還是要看她怎麼做，只要能讓她開心就好。對她來說，另一條明確的道路是演戲，她現在似乎也在追求演戲。如果這條路走不通，她還可以做模特。有這樣一張臉，職業生涯幾乎是有保

Yena is what I'd call a natural born entertainer. Her bright energy always made her a joy to watch, and that was her standout trait in IZONE. I figured that if she played her cards right, she'd thrive in her next path. If she had joined a group, it would likely have been in Everglow, but with both having established identities, it might not have worked well. Thankfully, she chose to go solo, and I think she's had the most successful solo career of all the IZONE members so far. In both music and variety, no one is stopping this woman. She's just such a vitamin that you can't help but like her. Her music has also been key, showcasing a unique charm and style that only she can pull off. A strong identity is crucial for a soloist, and Yena is just that girl. Smiley, good morning, nemo nemo, and so much of her music just screams

Yena 是一個天生的表演者。她的活力總是讓人賞心悅目，這也是她在 IZONE 的突出特點。我想，如果她能好好發揮，她會在下一條道路上茁壯成長。如果她加入一個團體，很可能是在 Everglow，但由於雙方都有既定的身份，可能效果並不好。幸好她選擇了單飛，我認為她是迄今為止所有 IZONE 成員中單飛事業最成功的一位。無論是音樂還是綜藝，沒有人能夠阻止這個女人。她就是這樣一個維他命，讓人情不自禁地喜歡她。她的音樂也很關鍵，展現了只有她才能做到的獨特魅力和風格。對於獨唱歌手來說，鮮明的個性至關重要，而耶娜正是

Yena, and that makes everyone like her more. The quality is consistent, the energy is always nice, what is there to not like? Just like Hyewon, she hasn't really been focusing on music, rather not at all. Minju has always been a simple person, whatever it is she wants to do, she will do it. And naturally there's the kdrama root. To her credit though, she's taking this path seriously, with several roles already under her belt and more on the way.

耶娜，這讓每個人都更喜歡她。品質始終如一，活力四射，還有什麼理由不喜歡她呢？就像 Hyewon 一樣，她並沒有真正專注於音樂，而是根本沒有。敏珠一直是個簡單的人，無論她想做什麼，她都會去做。自然而然，她就有了 kdrama 的根基。不過值得稱讚的是，她在這條道路上走得很認真，已經出演了幾個角色，而且還有更多角色在路上。

She was always the actress face of IZONE. With her past experience and a clear ambition to make it big, I think she'll get there sooner or later. But honestly it would've been also nice to see her continue as an idol. I always saw her as someone with potential. Had she gained more confidence in herself, I'm sure she would make up to be an amazing idol. In fact, some people saw it, as she was offered a contract by this little company you may or may not know about. Of course, it was still up to her on what she'll do, and she thought her time as an idol was over. And as long as she's comfortable with what she's doing now, I wouldn't ask for anything else.

她一直是 IZONE 的女演員形象代言人。憑藉她過去的經驗和想要大紅大紫的明確目標，我認為她遲早會成功的。但老實說，如果能看到她繼續做偶像也很好。我一直認為她很有潛力。如果她能對自己更有信心，我相信她一定能成為一名出色的偶像。事實上，有些人已經看到了這一點，因為有一家小公司向她發出了合約，你可能知道，也可能不知道。當然，她要做什麼還得看她自己，她認為自己的偶像生涯已經結束了。只要她能適應現在的工作，我就不會要求別的。

Minju wasn't the only one asked by that little company. In fact, two other members had the opportunity to get in it. And unlike Minju, they took it. I could make a 10 hour in-depth thesis on why I think Chaewon is the best idol ever, but I'll keep that to myself. No but seriously,

被那個小公司邀請的不止敏珠一人。事實上，另外兩名成員也有機會加入。與敏珠不同的是，他們抓住了機會。我可以寫一篇長達 10 個小時的論文，深入探討為什麼我認為彩媛是有史以來最好的偶像，但我還是不說了。不，我是認真的、

Kim Chaewon is amazing. Unlike Wonyoung and Yujin, we didn't really know Chaewon would end up in a group, let alone under HYBE. I mean there were some talks of her joining Rocket Punch, which in hindsight I'm grateful never happened. The next option was obviously solo work, which I also couldn't imagine. She's always been a good team player, and I really think she needed to be in a group for her to showcase true greatness. It was months of speculating, but lo and behold, she disappeared for 7 months. As a Chaewon stan that was probably the worst days of my life. By early 2022 I just gave up thinking she chose to live in the countryside or whatever. That would've disappointed me, because I knew this woman had a lot more up her sleeve, and damn she did. She's always been the hidden gem of the group. Everyone's first bias in IZ

金彩媛真是太棒了。與元英（Wonyoung）和宥真（Yujin）不同，我們並不知道金彩媛最終會加入一個組合，更不用說是 HYBE 旗下的組合了。我的意思是有一些關於她加入 Rocket Punch 的討論，事後我很慶幸沒有發生。下一個選擇顯然是單飛，這也是我無法想象的。她一直都是一個很好的團隊合作者，我真的認為她需要在一個團隊中才能展現她真正的偉大。我們猜測了好幾個月，結果她消失了 7 個月。作為彩媛的粉絲，那可能是我一生中最糟糕的日子。到了 2022 年初，我放棄了這個想法，以為她會選擇住在鄉下或其他地

ONE was always someone else, but the deeper you got into them, you realize there's a diamond waiting to shine. That has always been Chaewon in IZ ONE. We knew how good she was in that group, but when she got that jet black bob, it's almost like we didn't know who she truly was.

ONE 總是另類的，但當你越深入瞭解他們，你就會發現有一顆鑽石正等待著你去發光。IZ ONE 中的彩媛就是如此。我們知道她在那個組合裡有多優秀，但當她留起那一頭烏黑的波波頭時，我們幾乎都不知道她到底是誰了。

It's how she went from singing about sunshines and flowers, to shaking ass on stage. Like Luffy going gear 5, she just went above and beyond what anyone imagine, and that makes her oh so fucking impressive as an idol. Like a cat, this girl has 9 lives. She's done everything any human could ever do in a lifetime, and yet she is still grinding her ass as an idol. She's like our DJ returning to play Dr. Doom, she just wants more of it. She is in her 13th year as an idol, and she's still going full time. That, is insane. But unlike them, she isn't exactly trying to prove anything anymore. I can see from Kira's eyes that she isn't her to be the best at anything.

這就是她如何從歌唱陽光和鮮花，到在舞臺上搖擺屁股的過程。就像路飛昇上 5 檔一樣，她超越了所有人的想象，這讓她作為偶像令人印象深刻。就像一隻貓，這個女孩有九條命。她做了人類一生中能做的所有事，但作為偶像，她仍在磨屁股。她就像我們的 DJ 回來玩毀滅博士一樣，她只是想要更多。她做偶像已經第 13 個年頭了，但她仍在全職工作。這太瘋狂了。但與她們不同的是，她不再試圖證明什麼。從基拉的眼神中我可以看出，她並不是什麼都想做最好的。

She's here to simply entertain people as an idol, and I respect that. She didn't really have to do it, but since she likes the fun and thrill of being an idol, she goes with it. Yet at the same time, she's still willing to improve in a lot of ways. Comparing her produced days to how she is now, really puts into perspective how much she's evolved. Especially coming from an industry that prioritizes entertainment more than skill. And her best quality? No matter how big she's gotten, she never brings down other people. Which is apparently a simple trait not everyone possesses.

她來這裡只是為了作為偶像娛樂大眾，我尊重她的想法。她其實沒必要這麼做，但因為她喜歡當偶像的樂趣和快感，所以她就這麼做了。但與此同時，她仍然願意在很多方面不斷進步。將她出道時的樣子與現在的樣子相比，確實能讓人看到她的進步。尤其是她來自一個娛樂至上而非技術至上的行業。她最好的品質是什麼？無論她的地位有多高，她從不貶低別人。這顯然是一個簡單的特質，不是每個人都具備。

This combination of Sakura and Chaewon really was unexpected. They weren't exactly the closest during IZone, nor were they from the same backgrounds. Yet seeing them now I can't imagine them being separated. Especially with the success Le Seraphim has gotten over time.

櫻花和彩媛的結合確實出乎意料。在 IZone 期間，他們並不是最親密的人，也不是來自相同的背景。但現在看到他們，我無法想象他們會分開。尤其是隨著時間的推移，Le Seraphim 已經取得了巨大的成功。

I'm glad they got to be a part of it.

我很高興他們能參與其中。

I won't even pretend that I know anything from Nako's career in Japan.

我甚至不會假裝對 Nako 在日本的職業生涯有任何瞭解。

Apart from being a member of HKT48, I don't know what she's doing. I mean I am a Kpop fan so you can't really blame me. But from the moments I do see her, she's looked pretty happy. Unlike Sakura, she probably never thought her future was in the Kpop industry. Which is understandable. But during

除了是 HKT48 的成員，我不知道她在做什麼。我是 Kpop 的粉絲，所以你不能怪我。但我看到她的時候，她看起來很開心。與櫻花不同，她可能從未想過自己的未來會在 Kpop 行業。這是可以理解的。但在

Produce and IZone, I always thought she was one of the Japanese idols that could actually make it big in the Kpop scene. Everyone liked her. She's got potential. So I did kind of see her being here. But again that is all up to what she wants to do. I really apologize for not knowing any more than base level information. I know she's done some acting gigs as well, but whatever it is she does, I just hope it's the path that makes her the happiest. She's had a pretty long career as well, and so I know I can trust her judgement.

Produce 和 IZone，我一直認為她是真正能在 Kpop 界大紅大紫的日本偶像之一。每個人都喜歡她。她很有潛力。所以我覺得她會在這裡。但還是那句話，一切都取決於她想做什麼。很抱歉，我對她的瞭解僅限於基本資訊。我知道她也做過一些表演工作，但不管她做什麼，我只希望這是她最開心的一條路。她的職業生涯也很長，所以我知道我可以相信她的判斷。

If there was a member no one would hate I think it'd be her. Because you'd kind of be a terrible person to do so. It was quite long till we saw Chaeyoung as an idol again after the disbandment.

如果有一個成員是沒人會討厭的，我想那一定是她。因為你會覺得這樣做很可怕。解散後，我們過了很久才再次看到作為偶像的採英。

I mean she did do that street woman stuff that really helped her gain more traction, but that was more of a show rather than a career. At times I thought maybe she just gave up, but there it was. She re-debuted back as an idol. She was the last soloist to debut, and was also the last member to re-debut for a long while. If I'm being honest,

我的意思是，她確實做了街頭女人的工作，這確實讓她獲得了更多的關注，但那更像是一場表演，而不是她的事業。有時我想，也許她只是放棄了，但事實就是這樣。她以偶像的身份重新出道。她是最後一個單獨出道的成員，也是很長時間以來最後一個重新出道的成員。老實說

I never saw her as soloist material. She's a great dancer, a pretty solid vocalist, but I didn't know what else she'd offer. More specifically what she'll do with her music.

我從不認為她是獨唱演員的料。她舞跳得很好，唱功也很紮實，但我不知道她還能做些什麼。更確切地說，我不知道她在音樂方面還能做些什麼。

But as time went by, I slowly got the gist of her style. Dancing is her strongest point, and I really liked how her skills as a dancer is elevated through the music she releases.

但隨著時間的推移，我慢慢了解了她的風格。舞蹈是她的強項，我非常喜歡她的舞蹈技巧是如何通過她發佈的音樂得到提升的。

It's upbeat, pop, catchy, all essential needs for a great dance routine if I meant that correctly.

它歡快、流行、朗朗上口，如果我沒說錯的話，這就是一個精彩舞步的所有基本要求。

And also, some of her songs are kind of ambitious, and that really surprises me as it gives her a unique twist. Now that I think about it, she's always been the kind to surprise everyone around her, and that's always exciting.

此外，她的一些歌曲有點野心勃勃，這真的讓我很驚訝，因為這給了她一個獨特的轉折。現在回想起來，她總是能給周圍的人帶來驚喜，這總是令人興奮的。

She may not be the favorite of everyone, but I wouldn't be shocked if she gets better in the future.

她可能不是每個人的最愛，但如果她將來變得更好，我也不會感到震驚。

She may not look like it, but I swear this girl has surprised me in many ways I couldn't imagine.

也許她看起來不像，但我發誓，這個女孩給了我很多想象不到的驚喜。

Like Sakura and Nako, she also was a J-pop idol, just wasn't as experienced as the other two.

與櫻花和奈子一樣，她也是一名 J-pop 偶像，只是經驗不如其他兩人豐富。

Yet, during Produce and even IZONE, Hitomi slowly revealed herself as someone very capable.

然而，在《Produce》甚至《IZONE》中，瞳慢慢展現出了自己的能力。

She's not the best singer, but she'll sing. She's not the best dancer, but she'll dance.

她不是最好的歌手，但她會唱歌。她不是最好的舞者，但她會跳舞。

And she may not look like a rapper, but if they needed one she will.

她可能看起來不像說唱歌手，但如果他們需要，她會的。

She ticks every box of what it takes to be a solid K-pop idol.

她具備了成為一名優秀 K-pop 偶像的所有條件。

So when they disbanded I was hurt, because I didn't want to lose her to J-pop.

是以，當他們解散時，我很傷心，因為我不想讓 J-pop 失去她。

I didn't exactly follow her J-pop career after the disbandment, but what I saw in IZONE was a girl who had the skill and guts to be a well performing K-pop idol.

解散後，我並沒有完全關注她的 J-pop 事業，但我從 IZONE 身上看到的是一個有能力、有膽量成為出色 K-pop 偶像的女孩。

So when I say I was excited to see her back in the business, I genuinely meant it.

所以，當我說我很高興看到她重返演藝圈時，我是真心的。

I have this gut feeling that Hitomi has the potential to shine even brighter than we can imagine. And with the debut of Say My Name, that could honestly be possible.

我的直覺告訴我，瞳有可能比我們想象的更加閃耀。隨著《說出我的名字》的首播，這的確有可能實現。

5th gen just started, Hitomi is young, and she's got a whole career in front of her.

第 5 代剛剛起步，瞳還年輕，她的職業生涯還有很長的路要走。

I won't make any bold predictions or anything, but in the future, if I ever see her on the top, know that I've been here and been saying.

我不會做任何大膽的預測，但在未來，如果我看到她登頂，要知道我一直在這裡，一直在說。

I don't usually make videos like this, because 1. It's kind of a niche topic these days, and 2. It's just me yapping for 20 minutes about a group most of you don't care about anymore.

我通常不做這樣的視頻，因為 1.最近這個話題有點小眾，2.2. 這只是我用 20 分鐘嘮叨一個你們大多數人都不再關心的群體。

Yet, I think it was a nice introspective on a future I couldn't imagine years ago when these girls were together. And I think a disbandment like theirs is unique because not everyone goes through this. Usually a disbandment means the end of a career for most of the members.

然而，我認為這是一次很好的反思，反思多年前這些女孩在一起時我無法想象的未來。我認為像她們這樣的解散是獨一無二的，因為不是每個人都會經歷這樣的解散。通常解散意味著大多數成員職業生涯的結束。

I know other produced groups went through it too, but when did we see almost every member have a solid career after a disbandment? It's almost unheard of. The biggest takeaway here is that IZ'ONE really was just a moment for all of us, and yet it was still a great time.

我知道其他製作團體也經歷過這種情況，但我們什麼時候看到過幾乎每個成員在解散後都有穩固的職業生涯？這幾乎聞所未聞。這裡最大的收穫是，IZ'ONE 真的只是我們所有人的一個瞬間，但它仍然是一段美好的時光。

Would I go back? Fuck yes, in a heartbeat. But even though I miss them a lot, I know you can't just turn back the time. But still, I'm not that sad about it, and that says a lot.

我會回去嗎？當然會，絕對會。儘管我非常想念他們，但我知道時光不能倒流。但我還是沒有那麼難過，這說明了很多問題。

Sometimes I'm even thankful they did disband, and I'm glad this is how I feel right now.

有時，我甚至慶幸他們確實解散了，我很高興這就是我現在的感覺。
