How To Be As Determined As A K-Pop Idol

A K-Pop Idol is a famous person in the Korean music industry. These young people are highly regarded for their exceptional talent in various artistic fields, as well as their strong determination and undeniable charm.

So, what is their secret, you may wonder? Let’s dive right in!

Being A Trainee

They usually begin their training as a Kpop idol at a very young age, and it takes years before they are given the chance to debut. And by ‘the chance’, I truly mean that there is no guarantee that they will ever set their foot on a big stage.

This must be extremely anxiety-inducing as these young talented individuals have no certainty about their future.

So… how do they maintain such unwavering dedication for years on end, scarcely sleeping, barely eating, constantly exercising and improving?

Let’s discover the secrets to becoming as dedicated and determined as a K-Pop Idol!

An Extremely Strong Work Ethic

Kpop idols are well known for their tireless work ethics.

They get up early, put in a tonne of overtime, and go back to bed at one in the morning. Every day, they diligently stick to a strict schedule.

Some examples of this schedule include participating in physical exercise such as running, dancing, and gymnastics, studying languages to communicate with fans outside of Korea, and sticking to a strict diet.

Being an idol demands relentless commitment while continually exceeding expectations. 

Whenever the management asks you to complete a task, you should always make sure you complete twice as much work as they requested of you. Sounds incredibly challenging, doesn’t it? This, however, is how the artists increase their chances of potentially making their debut in the industry.

To truly become an Idol, it is essential to consistently challenge yourself and strive for personal growth each day.

Stick To Your Passion

During challenging times and when faced with long, tiring days, it’s essential that you recall what originally inspired you and what you want to accomplish in a span of six months or a year.

The training process for a Kpop idol is undeniably demanding and requires immense dedication, with a multitude of strict rules that must be followed. 

However, if your idols have achieved it and you look up to them as your role models and you are truly dedicated to the task, then you also have the potential to succeed. 

It may be hard to believe, but if you truly put your mind to something and stay focused on your goal, you may accomplish things you never believed imaginable.

A Love for Hard Work

In Korea, determination and hard work are highly valued traits and this calibre of perfectionism is customary in their culture.

They wholeheartedly commit themselves to studying and working relentlessly, prioritising their goals over weekends and holidays.

Keep going, even if you didn’t grow up in a similar environment. 

Working hard can be a source of passion and enjoyment, but it’s important to be mindful of not pushing oneself too far. Developing determination requires continuous training, just like muscle training does.

Start by making a commitment to never let sickness interfere with your work or school attendance. It is important to avoid staying at home if you are simply experiencing a bit of a headache, slight stomachache, or feeling a little bit under the weather.

A Word Of Caution
It will be best for your own well-being to stay home from school or work if you are experiencing serious health issues. Your safety should always be prioritised above all else, as nothing is worth jeopardising your health for, not even your biggest dreams.

Mental Resilience and Strength

Taking on a new challenge is a great accomplishment as it forces you outside of your comfort zone.

It’s easy to become invested in the thrill of getting started and envisioning your success. But once you move past the initial excitement, you’ll begin to encounter feelings of fatigue, fluctuating moods, uncertainty, and other unpleasant emotions. 

90% of the people toss the towel here. Please do not be one of them.

This is the stage where determination is KEY!

K-Pop Idols built up their capacity for resilience and unwavering determination by overcoming numerous challenges including physical fatigue, feelings of hunger, vulnerability, and emotional setbacks.

It’s important to understand that this journey won’t be a walk in the park, but you’ll never discover your true potential unless you take that first step.

Why not consider taking the first step today?

A Few Last Words About Determination

Rest assured that it is completely normal to feel discouraged and want to give up when faced with challenging situations.

Learning to be determined takes time and practice, and it is a journey that everyone goes through at their own pace.

Remember to be patient with yourself and have faith that you can develop the determination you desire. Having a strong sense of determination and a solid work ethic are qualities that can be developed by anyone. 

Any person can develop this quality, regardless of their background, occupation, age, faith, or any other factor that may cause doubt in their ability to learn it.

It’s important to keep in mind that maintaining good physical and mental health is crucial for cultivating determination.

Even the most straightforward alternatives, such as incorporating a 1k run into your routine every other day or diligently using your new eye cream every night, will increase your consistency and determination.

Stop putting off tasks and start pushing yourself to take on new challenges today.
