Story: ID: Hae-woo nim. Title: My confidence that may pierce through the floor. What should I do? My appearance, grades, and relationships too. I am really stressed lately. Celebrities have great bodies and faces too. Even when I look around the streets, there are so many people with amazing bodies. But why can’t I take good care of myself? How can I increase my confidence? I thought I was working hard, but when comparing to others, I’m nothing. 

CNU: It’s not like that… Hmm… Why do you think that? But concerns like this… I think anyone has these. Even for myself. I’ve had these types of concerns. Anyone else too. Jinyoungie, Sandeullie, Baro, and Gongchanie as well. They all may have concerns like this… Hmm… What I can say for you is… Hae-woo nim. There is no one as special as you Hae-woo nim. There may be people who are better than you at certain things. For instance, people who have more money than you, who are a bit better-looking, who are taller… that’s definitely possible. But in human beings, people have something more special to them. So, when looking at money, appearance, relationships, grades, studies… I think there’s more than that. For Hae-woo nim, believe that there is something special that only you have. That is all I can say for you. Even I feel that way sometimes. A couple of times a day, a month… I experience a slump. When I was younger, I thought I was the best singer in my neighbourhood, my hometown. (laughs) It was a childish thought. But at that time, I was like that. I thought, “I will definitely become a singer. I am really good.” I was immature. Then, with my very close friend, we went out for a singing competition at a university. We went to a national top-song youth competition. We went… and I fell through. But my friend won first place… when we went together. I had a mental breakdown. I really thought I was good at this, but I was just a frog in a well. So, for a while, I had a lot of concerns. I wondered if I should leave my hometown. I thought about it seriously. But, after having those concerns, I attempted many things like going to academies in Seoul, and participating in auditions. What I want to say is… those concerns! After being in that serious slump, you have those concerns, right? I think those concerns are very important. Even Hae-woo nim, you’re in the midst of some concerns. I think these concerns are an important aspect. There are people who don’t have such concerns in these situations, so I think compared to them, Hae-woo nim you are amazing. Just the fact that you are having these concerns, it means you are going to be able to improve moving forward. So please don’t feel discouraged, and soon, things will get better. So I hope you think this way too. This is what I wanted to say.
