[theqoo] THE REASON WHY IDOLS HAVE AN EXTREME SCHEDULE EVERY TIME THEY GO ON MUSIC BROADCASTS...

Because their schedule follows another schedule from the previous day, they go to sleep really late and already need to wake up at dawn for their new schedule

Even if they are worn out, they need to get hair and makeup done before shooting

It's still early but in order to get the perfect shot, they need to pre-record a few times

They need to wait and wait until other teams are done their pre-recordings

At the end of the waiting, the broadcast will finally start in the afternoon

In the same week, they will have 6 days of recording (The Show, Show Champion, M Countdown, Music Bank, Music Core, Inkigayo)

Depending on the idol, they usually repeat this schedule for 2~4 weeks

By the way, music broadcast shows only give idols a very little share for appearance fees. It's around hundreds of thousands of won (~ a few hundred USD)

Hair, makeup + other labor expenses can cost up to millions of won per fay (~ a few thousands USD)

Meanwhile, if the time allows, they will also appear on variety, radio and fan meetings

1. That's why nowadays, for idols who have seniority, they only promote for a week. If they come from a big company and are rookies, they would also promote shortly for 1-2 months. Seriously, both the idols and staffs are working so hard. But it's fun for fans to be able to watch their shows but..

2. I seriously wouldn't be able to do this even if they paid meㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ If I can't sleep, I get so cranky that there would be rumors about my bad personality spreading ㅠㅠㅠ

3. My bias has a comeback + Kingdom + drama + variety show + radio + other schedules so it's really obvious that he's having a hard time and I feel bad for himㅠㅠ... The staffs and my bias are both impressive

4. For real, it feels like appearing on music shows isn't effective at all. Of course, it's nice to watch their stages but for the whole day, all they do is wait.. they need to set up everything at dawn, wait and then wait again until they announce the #1..

5. That's why I'm satisfied even if they just give us 1~2 weeks of good quality stages.. It's Corona time right now so they are also leaving work earlier but if they have a comeback interview, they need to wait until the broadcast starts.... The staffs are having it hard too.. and I'm thankful for my bias too..

6. They need to either change the system or get rid of it

7. So that's why if they have some seniority, they don't appear as much.. because it's tiring

8. My bias only promotes for 2 weeks so I was sad but seeing this kind of schedule, I would've fainted even after 1 weekㄷㄷㄷ

9. But why do they have to do it this way?

10. It would be better for them not to appear in Korea broadcast if they hit big
