Recently, she was asked by Jeong Hyeong Don on an episode of Dr. Oh’s Golden Clinic if she had a student who she thought could beat her in terms of dance talent. Before answering, Lia gave a disclaimer saying that all the people she trained danced well, but if she had to choose, she’d single out TWICE‘s Momo as the one who could surpass her.
