Your idols are not just voices and dances, in their early
lives, they were “nerds” that excelled on their perspective schools.

2. Onew
Known as Onew in stage, this 23-year old leader of the boy
group SHINEe, is also a top student in school.
Onew said in an interview with audiences on their 20s as
they talked about how it felt to have good grades, “I’m actually really shy so I never thought I’d go into the field of
entertainment. But in high school, I started to practice my singing. But I also
studied hard. In my junior year of high school, I came in second place in the
whole school [in terms of grades].”
Even in before, Onew loved to sing but he never let his
academic fall because he also achieved the national highest score for their high
school SATs exams.
