JYP Entertainment‘s NiziU recently sparked a heated discussion among Korean netizens after sharing their experiences of grueling schedules during their Korean debut.
Formed through the survival audition program Nizi Project by JYP Entertainment and Sony Music Entertainment, NiziU officially debuted in Japan in December 2020. They entered the Korean market with a Korean album in October 2023. During a recent appearance on Japan’s Fuji TV variety show Pokapoka, members Nina, Mako, Miihi, and Rio discussed the intense schedule they faced when promoting in Korea.
The members described waking up at 2 AM, leaving their dorms shortly after, and beginning hair and makeup at a salon by 2:20 AM. They would arrive at the broadcast station around 6:45 AM to start preparing for their performance at 7:30 AM. Their day included rehearsals, filming dance challenge videos with other artists, a live broadcast at 6 PM, and a fan signing event before finally returning to their dorms around 10 PM.
Rio even noted that this rigorous routine sometimes extended for about two weeks, leaving them to catch sleep during brief moments of downtime.
These comments quickly gained attention after being shared by the Korean media outlet Sports Trends and sparked controversy on the popular community site TheQoo.
Korean netizens had varying opinions on the issue, with some feeling tired of stars constantly complaining about such hectic schedules. In fact, many claim that these conditions are inevitable due to music shows and their timings.
- “Korea has so many music shows, it’s inevitable.”
- “Did they even have such a schedule? I thought they stayed in their dorms because they weren’t popular.”
- “These comments are harsh. The demanding schedule for Korean music shows has been mentioned countless times.”
- “They must cram everything into a short trip, so sarcasm is expected.”
- “Do they have serious mental issues to be this sarcastic?”
- “Just appearing on one Korean music show means starting from early dawn.”
- “Why are these people so confident?”
- “When idols make a comeback, this kind of schedule is standard. What’s with the comments?”
- “Japan doesn’t seem to have as many music shows or content when idols make a comeback.”
- “When appearing on music shows, it’s always like this. The article mentioned harshness, but they were just describing their schedule.”
