She mentioned that she discovered there was an error when she came across certain articles talking about it. The mistranslated comment in question was Jihyo saying that they, “ didn’t realize that all members have renewed their contracts until right before the official announcement.”
c @chxrleththey didn't know all of them renewed that's why sana was so excited that day waking us up and telling us to check the news and posting an ot9 photo.

Although the mistranslation did not lead to much harm, TWICE’s Jihyo wanted to clear the air.

She wanted fans to know that all nine members of the group knew that it would not be easy to have everyone on the same page. She clarified that it wasn’t that the members did not know anything about it until the agency posted an official announcement, but that they were unsure about the renewal until the contracts were brought to them.

TWICE s Jihyo explains the mistranslation in the Grammy Magazine interview
TWICE's leader's message explaining the mistranslation (Image via Twitter/wooritw) TWICE's leader, Jihyo's comments on the group's contract renewal, recently became a talking point on the internet. As per Grammy Magazine's translation, the nine members did not know about the contract renewal until the official announcement by JYP Entertainment. However, that was far from what had happened.

I didn’t mean that we didn’t know about our contract renewals until the official announcement.” She then gave a detailed explanation behind her actual answer, which might have gone wrong in translation. “ I meant that none of us really knew how the renewal would go until the contracts were actually drafted and we sat down to sign them. T-T I was trying to explain that it’s not at all too easy for everyone to be on the same page.” She added,
“ It wasn’t necessarily guaranteed that we’d all want to renew—which is fine because it’s our lives!

I wanted to emphasize that it was super important that we were able to make our own decisions. But I think the interview ended up being translated otherwise. Anyway, I wanted to come by and clarify in case there are ONCEs out there who also read the articles.” TWICE’s Jihyo then added her message with a forever OT9 message, reflecting the group’s strong bond, saying,
“ But, yeah whatever!
