"So, I have been thinking to myself, 'Is it right for me to keep working in this industry? Is this the right job for me?'" Moonbyul read.
However, Moonbyul feels like the risk of taking a break is too big, as she might have to potentially work her way up again to reach the same status she has now.
"But I am worried that if I take a break now, then I will have to start all over and build this whole career again," she shared.

"You haven't been well recently as well. You had even fainted a couple of times. You had tested positive for COVID-19, and I believe that you have been feeling worse after that. I know that you have been tolerating all these hardships together with your poor health. My heart broke seeing you," Cha Ri Na commented.
Bada also shared that she knows how Moonbyul feels, as she felt the same way decades ago and that many also felt exactly how she feels now. But above all, she reassured Moonbyul that it's okay to feel that way.
