Amber Opens Up About Creative Ambitions, New Projects at KCON 2016 LA: Interview

Onstage and as a member of f(x), Amber has been known as the spunky, always-smiling rapper for the multinational girl group. Offstage, she's still spunky and rarely breaks from a smile when meeting with Fuse backstage at the final day of KCON 2016 Los Angeles, telling me about how she's taking advantage of having Pokémon Go in America and already hit Level 12 during her trip. But get her talking about her ambitions as a musician and you suddenly see a more collected side to 23-year-old, revealing deeper depth to the artist as she refuses to label herself and is instead focused on learning how far her creative ambition can take her.

Rocking a '90s-inspired T-shirt with Kurt Cobain's likeness, Amber reflected on what her KCON performance represented (including nailing a difficult belt note in "Borders"), her latest artist ventures (video directing and a web series), what's next for f(x) and more.
