IU
During childhood, her parents were so deep in
debt that her parents couldnโt support both
her and her younger brother. So she lived
under her grandmother
She was also scammed by ghost companies
into paying them money thinking she was
accepted as a trainee.
She also failed auditions 20 times including a
JYP audition.
GOO HARA (KARA)
Goo Hara, despite looking like nobility was born
into poverty and added to this fact, her
parents divorced when she was only 7.
As a result, she grew up under her
grandparents. She was constantly bullied when
she was in elementary school and this caused
her to harden her resolve to become a singer.
SANDARA PARK (2NE1)
Sandara Parkโs struggles started from her
father who secretly had a family in Korea
besides her family. He eventually left them
taking all the money with him, leaving Sandara
to care for her family financially.
PARK JIYEON (T-ARA)
She had to work since she was 10 (or even less) as a
model and a child actress ...Her
father couldn't work properly
because he couldn't fix his
teeth....she was the bread
winner of the family....she sends
her whole pay check to her
family that's why she often wear
other members clothes. This
breaks my heart
(she haven't seen her father
since 3 years)
SUNYE (WONDER GIRLS)
Sunye was raised by her grandparents because
her mother died when she was very young and
her father suffered from a health condition that
kept him bedridden. In fall 2007, prior to
the Wonder Girls' promotions for their single
" Tell Me ," Sunye's grandfather died. In October
2009, her father was rushed to the intensive
care unit after his condition turned for the
worse. She took the first flight from New York,
where she resided at the time, to South Korea,
skipping out on numerous promotional events
to be with her father. On June 23, 2010,
Sunye's father died due to a chronic illness he
had been suffering from for over 20 years.
