TWICE Jeongyeon Reveals Working Part-Time At Cafe During Hiatus + ONCEs Endeared by Idol's Activities

Jeongyeon shared in a program about her activities during her long hiatus from the group and ONCEs were happy to learn about the steps she made to recover.

On August 31, the newest episode of the "Investigator" was released. There, artist and guest Kangnam mentioned that he owns a coffee shop. This led Jeongyeon to bring up how she used to work as a barista, much to Kangnam's surprise.

Jeongyeon then recalled the time when she had anxiety disorder, which also led to her indefinite hiatus. The singer said that she became a part-time barista in her friend's family cafe, where she worked from 6 am to 4 pm.

Kangnam: "For real? That's great news! You worked hard to get to where you are now. You went through part-time jobs, school, and auditions all at once? And now you're a star. You should write a book!"

Kangnam: "Do you remember that time?"

Jeongyeon: "This is something I've never told anyone yet. When I had a panic attack, I had to take a break. And during the break, I worked as a barista at my friend's coffee shop."

Kangnam: "You did? You didn't just stay at home. You worked."

Jeongyeon: "I would go to the coffee shop at six in the morning and work till four in the afternoon."

Kangnam: "Wow, you worked hard."


ONCEs reacted to Jeongyeon's revelation and expressed how awesome it was seeing her in action at a cafe.

  • "Jeongyeon was a barista while on hiatus. That's pretty awesome!"
  • "Working at her friend's coffee shop must have given her peace of mind away from the idol life and given her time to rediscover herself."
  • "Yoo Jeongyeon, are there actually things you can't do? As if being an idol, MC, doing tennis, and boxing is not enough, now we know that you're also a barista? Hardworking queen!"
  • "Finally we have a chance to see Barista Jeongyeon in action. Last time, she really shocked other members when she mentioned that she's worked as a barista when during her break."
  • "It's great that you kept your mind busy with work at the cafe. I liked the idea that you didn't give in to thinking at home."
