Everyone dreams of various jobs until they find the right aptitude for them.
In the entertainment industry, there are stars who wanted to do something other than a work with spotlights as they do now.
In particular, on the occasion of Teacher's Day today in Korea (May 15th), the history of those who almost became teachers instead of celebrities is being re-examined.
Take a look at the celebrities who wanted to teach pupils by standing in the teaching group but are now standing in front of the public and displaying their remarkable talents.
Mi Joo
Mi Joo, a former Lovelyz member who is currently in her prime with a stellar performance in entertainment, originally aspired to be a kindergarten teacher.
When asked what she would have done if she hadn't been a singer at a production presentation for a web drama in 2016, Mi Joo said she would have been a kindergarten teacher.
Mi Joo, who said she studied early childhood education, enjoys singing and playing with her children.
Mi Joo, a "human vitamin" who generates energetic energy, is likely to get along well with the kids if she becomes a kindergarten teacher.
Ryu Jun Yeol
Before becoming an actor, Ryu Jun Yeol aspired to be a teacher.
"I originally intended to be a school teacher," Ryu Jun Yeol, who appeared on tvN's "On-site Talk Show Taxi" in 2016, gained notice.
Ryu Jun Yeol stated that he enjoyed meeting kids and admired his teacher.
However, Ryu Jun Yeol stated, "While I was thinking about my career, I adored watching movies and had an ambition of being an actor."
Ryu Jun Yeol, who also worked as an actor, added that he worked part-time at an elementary school, teaching students after-school classes.
Queen Wasabi
Rapper Queen Wasabi, who rose to prominence with her amazing rap skills and hot talking abilities, almost became a teacher rather than a musician.
Queen Wasabi, who graduated from the Department of Education and Engineering at Ewha Womans University, came on MBC every1 "Video Star" in 2020 and stated that she taught as a moral subject.
It was also surprised to hear that during his high school years, he was the top student in liberal arts.
Queen Wasabi's "twist" academic background drew attention, which is normally admired for its laid-back attitude.
Kim Min Ah
Kim Min Ah, a former weather forecaster who is known for her candid remarks on numerous broadcasts, dropped out of high school and enrolled at Gyeongin National University of Education.
Kim Min Ah went to college naturally because both of her parents were teachers, but once there, she prepared for the open recruitment test for flight attendants rather than the appointment exam.
Kim Min Ah thought she did not fit in as a flight attendant, so she became a weather forecaster.
Jeon Hyun Moo
Jeon Hyun Moo, an announcer-turned-MC, garnered attention by exposing his teacher's certificate, which he had prepared to become a teacher.
Jeon Hyun Moo stated in a 2013 broadcast that his dream of being the No. 1 was to become an announcer, but he obtained a teacher's license in preparation for failing the announcer's exam.
Jeon Hyun Moo chose reporters and professors as his future announcer job.
Kwon Jung Yeol
Singer Kwon Jung Yeol, whose lovely voice captivates women's hearts, dropped out of Yonsei University's Department of Education.
Kwon Jung Yeol previously stated, "If I hadn't been a singer, I would have become an alternative school teacher."
If Kwon Jung Yeol, who has a warm smile and a wonderful voice, became a teacher, he would be a huge hit with the students.
