Singer Chuu recently opened up about the difficult time she faced following a live performance controversy. The video of Chuu's guest appearance on the YouTube channel "Studio 777" was uploaded on November 7th. In the video, Moon Sang-hoon asked Chuu if she had ever experienced a slump in her career. Chuu responded by saying that one of the main reasons she believes she hasn't suffered a slump is because she hasn't achieved anything exceptionally amazing yet.
She explained that comments like, "You did great, why are you being like this these days? You must be suffering a slump", should come after she reaches her heyday. Chuu went on to share details about the controversy surrounding her live performance.
She revealed that it was her first appearance on a program as a representative of her group, and it was a radio show. At that time, she thought she just needed to have fun and sang leisurely, but it resulted in a live controversy.
As a result, she experienced depression and tried to avoid people. The incident affected her confidence in singing, and she would get nervous every time she had to perform. She considered it a slump in her singing career, but she has overcome much of that fear now.
Moon Sang-hoon then shared how he overcame his slump and offered advice to Chuu. Chuu also discussed her new song, "Howl", explaining that she was initially worried about not being able to showcase her bright appearance on stage with this song. However, she liked it because the lyrics contained what she wanted to say.
Chuu further admitted that these days, she no longer forces herself to appear bright on entertainment programs. She revealed that she realized she had been pretending to be happy when she wasn't feeling well. Moon Sang-hoon agreed, saying that he used to fake laughter even when things weren't funny, but now he believes people would appreciate authenticity.
Chuu shared that her friends also gave her similar advice, reminding her that it's okay to look worried or not be liked by everyone. They told her that it's not a sin to love and not receive love from everyone, and that people may dislike her, but not everyone will.
Chuu found comfort in these words. Overall, Chuu's confession about her past struggles and how she has overcome them serves as an inspiration to others in similar situations.
