[@chasingfireworks]

7:38 actually johnny from nct went back and forth (chicago-korea) while he was a trainee! he would fly to korea every summer break, almost as if it were a summer camp, train for the break, come back and repeat. this is actually the reason as to why he trained for 8+ years, so if he had trained continuously, he probably would have made his debut earlier! so yes, it is possible, but i think you’re the one who has to pay for it, but i think it’s fine as long as your company and your financial situation is okay with it :)

[@LuvieIrene]

yup but what i'm talking about is a general way that trainees follow, of course there are exceptions

[@LuvieIrene]

welcome~

[@soel5655]

I think there are exceptions for some trainees so be going back and forth between SK and their hometown. I believe Johnny(NCT) has said his training period because of this though. He would go to school in the US and during the summer he would go to SK to train. And some companies do have branch locations in other countries such as Japan where, I guess, trainees train and aren’t sent to SK unless they are confirmed to be in the debut line up. Because often international trainees have to study Korean even if the aren’t in SK. Keyword: BELIEVE (I am not entirely sure about this)

[@LuvieIrene]

There are exceptions to every situation and what I shared was obviously the general circumstances

Well that is true, you have to go to Korea to be trainee. But I know I think Kazuha was s tuck in Netherlands, and she was unable to come to Korea, and Hube sedned trainer to Netherlands. So it's posiblle to train in your country, but they obviously are not going to do that to every trainee that doesn't live in Korea.

I really want to become a trainee/idol, but I’m torn between whether I should audition or stay in school. I know that you can go to school in Korea, but I wanna go to university afterwards, to study medicine. There’s international school for high school students, but is there “international” universities? Or will the company allow me to go to university anyways? I feel like by the time I go to uni, if I’m a trainee, then my Korean will be good enough to hold fluent conversations, but idk if I’d be able to understand the “technical” language for whatever degree I wanna pursue, for example chemical names or etc. Also unrelated to above, but as a trainee, can you have a part time job on the side? I know most people don’t have enough time, but if you feel like you can fit it into your schedule without it affecting your trainee life, would the company actually allow you to have one?

I have watched your video with thought, but my friend says she has a friend who is a sm trainee and she trains online (she's focusing on rapping) and she has to send a video of her dancing, rapping and singing every day. I was just wondering, because this video was one year ago and some things may be partially adjusted, and even if you said that being a trainee is like having a job- is it actually not possible to train online? Or is this just with sm? (I'll text my friend again when she's online) Also, my parents say that I need to at least get a degree in a specific university (that's not in Korea). Is it possible to study abroad as an idol while still promoting? I know you have mentioned it in your previous video, saying that you can while on hiatus and not promoting as much in a much later stage of your idol life, but what if your parents (just an example) want you to put study before everything else, and then focus on being an idol? I know that Chenle from NCT debuted at just 14 and studied at Beijing contemporary music school- I'm not really sure about his story (I couldn't find any results), so I would like to know more. Thank you so much if you have read to the end of my two horrifically long questions, and an even bigger thank you if you can reply to my questions. I have no idea if you have actually talked about those in your videos before, since I have just recently been watching your videos. Thank you for your information Irene, you are one of the most accurate providers of information out there. I will continue watching your marvelous videos and I hope you have a wonderful day
