![]() ![]() It’s funny to me, because I am so heavily involved on social media. It was a little bit difficult emotionally.Īs well as your cyst, you went viral on Twitter for your twirl in the Miley lip sync – how does that feel? Then your body is left kinda hollow, you know? You just feel a bit empty and like you’ve lost your purpose, so it took me a little bit to find my way back into the reason why I wanted to continue doing this. All that momentum and all that excitement and the stress went away after that. It was everything that I wanted to do – right? I wanted to be on Drag Race so bad and I did everything that I could to be ready for it. How did you feel overall after your elimination? I guess that’s another blessing in disguise because I was going through so much at that time. I don’t know how it would’ve been if I stayed longer. When I did come back home after shooting, it took me at least another week to actually feel 100%. I mean… Honestly though, I was going through so much that I don’t know what would’ve happened if I stayed because I would’ve continued to be in pain. I feel robbed because I wanna hear what you have to say on every runway… And there was no explaining my look, so I had to explain something! It just all came out. Yeah! Ru said something about that stage really brings a lot of emotions and feelings, and especially if you’re in the bottom two, you turn into survival mode where you feel like you just have to share as much as you can to explain your look. When you’re in those situations, it’s like word vomit. So at the time when I said it, I kinda felt like, ‘Why did I even mention that?’ Then after watching the first episode and seeing the reaction, it made me feel, ‘Well thank god! At least I shared that.’ You never know how they’re going to edit it, if it will be in or out. I didn’t think it was gonna be such a big deal. Oh my gosh! I guess so, a medical condition turning into a blessing. Would you say that your cyst was a blessing in disguise? You know what? Now I feel like I should just grow another one! Everyone’s been asking me so much and I think they’re disappointed that it’s gone! I feel like they want me to say, ‘It’s getting bigger and large and in charge.” Hi Soju! I know you’ve been asked several times but how’s the cyst? “Everyone’s been asking me so much and I think they’re disappointed that it’s gone! I feel like they want me to say, ‘It’s getting bigger and large and in charge.”ĭoes it make sense now? In celebration of her short but iconic appearance on the Emmy Award winning series, we caught up with the Shot With Soju host to discuss her time on the show, Asian representation on mainstream TV, and why we need to have a discussion about the “politics of drag”. “You know what? Now I feel like I should just grow another one!” she tells us. However, like Miss Vanjie, the queen became a viral sensation and the subject of hundreds of memes, which is why we had to ask about it. ![]() Good for her! If you’re unfamiliar with the Korean performer, we’ll provide a little backstory: last week, the star made her debut on the 11th season of RuPaul’s Drag Race and told the world all about her cyst.Īfter losing out on a lip sync to The Best of Both Worlds by Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus against Kahanna Montrese, Soju was told to sashay away by Mama Ru. Yas, you read correctly, Soju wants another “oozing” medical condition. “Everyone’s been asking me so much and I think they’re disappointed that it’s gone.”
