After a successful K-pop career, Tiffany Young is ready for the solo spotlight. “It’s incredible to hear when your older sister says, ’Man, you wrote the soundtrack to my life.’'

Tiffany of South Korean girl group Girls' Generation is seen at HERA Seoul Fashion Week F/W 2017 on March 28, 2017 in Seoul.As a member of Girls' Generation, one of K-pop’s most popular groups, Stephanie Young Hwang — who performs as “Tiffany Young” — has had a part in 15 albums, 16 chart-topping singles and about 1.8 billion views on YouTube.

But Hwang, 29, had always wanted a solo career, and when the group’s contract ended in 2017, she decided it was the best time to take a hiatus from it and return to the United States. Her groupmates understood, she said. “I’m proud to say that Girls’ Generation — that over 10 years and our discography — it was always about growth,” Hwang told NBC News. “Between the girls and I, we had this trust where I said, ‘Yeah, if you want to put a Girls’ Generation project together. That’s always going to be something I want to do, so let me know.’”Thus far, Hwang has been happy with her decision. She released her debut EP, “Lips on Lips” on Feb. 22 and the record hit No. 2 on iTunes’ U.S. pop chart.
