On the 23rd, MBC every1’s “STAR the Secret” will broadcast why it took such a long time for Hyori to become a graduate of Kookmin University.
Before Fin.K.L debuted, Hyori passed the test that only accepted 40 out of 2600 people that applied. With a ratio of 65:1, Hyori successfully entered the performing arts department of Kookmin University. Hyori’s 3rd year high school teacher said, “At first, it was harder for her to get into schools in Seoul, but her grades improved in the second semester.”
Hyori entered Kookmin in 1998. At the same time, pre-Fin.K.L Hyori was a chubby college student. She was a popular worker in the student’s cafeteria. At the time, she asked her professors for advice before appearing in SBS “Three Leaf Clover.”
However, the professor said, “Hyori’s mom came to look for the principal so that Hyori can have a smooth graduation process. She didn’t want her to stay in a state of failing. Finally, in the eighth year, she graduated.”

Date: 2009-10-22 06:12 am (UTC)Very true, but....I'm gonna be a bit of an elitist here and say that most of the time, their majors aren't that difficult (e.g. 2PM...Wooyoung, Chansung & Junho's major is Broadcasting, I believe). It doesn't make their degrees worth any less, of course, yeah... there are some degrees that require you to be a student full time and there are some you can get while simultaneously working and doing other things.

Date: 2009-10-22 12:27 pm (UTC)a) not the same fame as before
b) societal pressure to at least have a degree, especially in an academia obsessed society like S. Korea
c) personal satisfaction and personal expectations? a lot of these stars feel they just NEED an education. or want to finish what they started (12 years of school, 4 left, what's to lose?)
