The Intricate Journey of Self-Management: Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun Opens Up
Seohyun reveals her strict self-discipline during her Girls’ Generation years
Seohyun’s Dedication Beyond the Limelight
On a recent episode of the YouTube channel ‘Sad-Like Hyung Shin Dong-yeop’, Girls’ Generation members Hyoyeon and Seohyun made a special appearance and the conversation turned deeply reflective as they reminisced about their time together in the iconic girl group.
According to Hyoyeon, Seohyun often provided more than sisterly advice; she offered guidance that even Hyoyeon’s own family did not. Laughing, Hyoyeon confessed, “She would advise, ‘Don’t meet that guy,’ to the point where I didn’t want to tell her about anyone I was dating because she would criticize and try to keep me from going out.”
Shin Dong-yeop chimed in, praising Seohyun for never being involved in scandalous rumors, highlighting her disciplined nature. Hyoyeon admitted to tears in a previous heart-to-heart conversation, revealing how Seohyun saw Girls’ Generation as everything during her twenties.
The Struggles and Sacrifices of Being in a Girl Group
Hyoyeon candidly spoke about the inner conflicts, “I wanted to have fun, yet Seohyun would finish late-night schedules and head to the practice room to rehearse, then share what she learned with us.”
Seohyun expressed her devotion, saying, “(Girls’ Generation) was my everything,” while Hyoyeon admired Seohyun’s ability to control her emotions for the sake of the group, admitting her focus was always more personal.
Seohyun revealed, “I thought as the youngest, if I got into a dating rumor, it wouldn’t be right.” With a witty grin, she shared her assessments of people’s characters while hinting her protective stance towards Hyoyeon: “Didn’t I warn you a lot? You deserve better.”
A Glimpse into Seohyun’s Life Choices
The conversation took a personal turn with comedian Jung Ho-chul asking Seohyun about rumors circulating in communities about her declaring a vow of singlehood. Smiling, Seohyun explained her future relationship preferences echoing her character traits, “To some degree, it’s true. I want to meet someone like myself. I firmly believe such a person is out there.”
Seohyun’s words resonate beyond her popularity as a K-pop idol, presenting a narrative of determination and self-affirmation.
For fans and future artists, Seohyun’s story offers a lesson in dedication and how to balance personal desires with professional responsibilities.
