APINK Chorong Reveals the Extreme Measures She Did as a Trainee to Save Money
Recently, APINK members Eunji and Chorong made a special guest appearance on the February 4 episode of TV Chosun's program, "Foodie Heo Young Man's Baekban Journey," where they traveled to Hwasung in Gyeonggi-do to find the best Korean dishes.
During the broadcast, Eunji and Chorong shared with host Heo Young Man the difficulties they faced before making their debut as APINK. Chorong especially surprised him when she revealed the extreme measures she had to do in order to save as much money.
"To save money, I would buy a lunch box from the convenience store and ate it for two days," Chorong revealed.

She added, "There were also times when I would survive off of one box of cereal for a month too."
Even after making their debut, Eunji and Chorong both confessed to having forgotten the importance of eating well as it was difficult to eat an actually meal due to their diets that had been going on for a long time.
The two idols then expressed their gratitude to the show "Foodie Heo Young Man's Baekban Journey," as it is the first time in a while that they ate three hearty meals in one day.
