@joyce_wyyy JANG WONYOUNG TỰ VéO VÀO ĐÙI ĐỂ GIỮ BẢN THÂN TỈNH TáO TRONG CONCERT. Luôn nghiêm khắc với chính bản thân mình, không bao giờ để bản thân lơ đễnh, có thể đứng trên giày cao gót 8-9 tiếng sau khi vừa đáp một chuyến bay dài, có thể ngủ 1 tiếng 1 ngày, có thể bay đến 3 nước khác nhau trong 3 ngày, có thể chạy từ tỉnh này sang tỉnh khác trong vài giờ, có thể vừa học thuộc kịch bản vừa chỉnh sửa lại bằng tiếng Nhật, có thể chạy đến 3 lần fansign trong 1 ngày và vẫn nhận ra gương mặt mỗi một bạn fan đã đến, có thể ốm, có thể đau ngay trên sân khấu khi phải liên tục biểu diễn ở nhiều nơi mỗi ngày, có thể tự cốc vào đầu thật đau để dừng khóc. Tất cả những việc đó, vẫn không thể làm Jang Wonyoung có bất kì một giấy phút nào không nhớ ra mình là một thần tượng, mình là người của công chúng. Cả nhóm đang chạy một lịch trình tour dày đặc đến khủng khiếp, xen lẫn vào đó là lịch trình cá nhân của em. Để giữ mình tỉnh táo, em đã liên tục tự véo vào đùi cho thật đau. #wonyoung #fyp ♬ som original - learn1ngs
