Career
NistA and NistY were trainees at South Korean companies.[2] The two are deeply involved in the entertainment, music, and publishing industries. Their international education, combined with their work alongside people from diverse nationalities and backgrounds, has made them familiar with multicultural societies.[3]
NistA performed "Octopus's Dream (Thai Version)"[4], a single from DGRIDAPICTURES's global album "Octopus's Dream", released on May 5th (Korean Children's Day) and distributed by Warner Music Korea. The project aims to share the song's supportive and empowering message with children around the world, encouraging them to pursue their dreams with confidence.[5] Octopus's Dream was originally sung in Korean by singer-songwriter Ahn Ye-eun and first appeared on her third album, "OOO".
In addition to her screen presence, she also creates cartoons, comics, and related materials; writes novels, fiction, and scholarly articles (mostly in English); and produces music and choreography. She occasionally does translation and interpretation work as well.[3]
2022–2024: Blackforce
NistA and NistY were revealed as 3rd generation members of a Thai girl group, Blackforce, on November 11, 2022.
While part of Blackforce, she took part in several prominent events, including Japan Expo Thailand (the largest all-Japan event in Asia)[6][7], the Thai-Japan Iconic Music Fest (the biggest Thai-Japan music festival in Thailand)[8], and the Bilibili Anime Carnival 2023.[9][10]
She additionally received invitations to numerous press screenings organized by major Thai film production and distribution companies, including Sahamongkol Film[11], along with Thai anime licensing companies such as DEX.
2024–present: PRINCESS KILL
Before joining Blackforce, she was already active in the entertainment, music, and publishing industries. Following the group’s April 2024 disbandment[12], she and her twin continued as a duo under their original name, "Princess Kill".
