Convert tuple elements into separate strings

Question

I have a dictionary which contains tuples, which in turn, contain strings & integers. I want to convert them to series of strings separated by comma.

new = [('POU5F1', 13), ('BICD1', 11), ('VEGFA', 10)]
links = [', '.join([t[0] for t in new])]
print(links)

How can I convert this to the following format:

 print(links)
 ['POU5F1', 'BICD1', 'VEGFA']

Hope this code can help:

new = [('POU5F1', 13), ('BICD1', 11), ('VEGFA', 10)]
links = []

for i in new:
    links.append(i[0])

print(links)
