KISS OF LIFE created a buzz before they even debuted, with the talented members making a name for themselves within the industry long before they were in the group.

Pre-debut, Belle worked for SM Entertainment as a songwriter and has songwriting credits for multiple artists, including LE SSERAFIM and (G)I-DLE‘s Miyeon.
She went viral after singing the verse she wrote for LE SSERAFIM’s song “Unforgiven” on a radio program.

Thanks to the song’s success, Belle won a composer’s award only ten days after her debut but revealed to Lee Mujin that she wasn’t informed of the feat until after the award had already been accepted… by someone else.

Belle was awarded the “Grand Prize For 100 Proud Koreans” award in the composer’s category, which she was informed about in the middle of KISS OF LIFE’s showcase.
After her manager revealed Belle had won the award, she was then told that her father, Shim Shin, who was a popular singer in the ’90s, accepted it in her place.

Belle shared that she searched for articles about her award after the showcase ended, only to hilariously see media photos of her dad “proudly holding up the award.”

Belle recently opened up about her relationship with her father and how becoming an idol made her view her upbringing differently.
