The life of a K-pop idol is never easy, with endless schedules and little time to breathe. Recently, ENHYPEN’s Ni-Ki took to Weverse and went live. The K-pop idol didn’t show his face and talked about how tough it is to rest. He stated that even a day off doesn’t feel relaxing because work is always there. Ni-Ki also mentioned missing simple things like family trips or visiting his hometown. This sparks massive concern among fans.
His words hit them hard. They noted that the K-pop idol debuted with ENHYPEN when he was extremely young and since then he has been working nonstop. Some of them pointed out that he hasn’t had a real break in years. They feel his schedule is too demanding and has little room for personal time.
Many expressed their concern on the internet. They said it’s heartbreaking to hear him talk about missing home and struggling to rest. They hope he gets a proper break soon.
Further, some fans turned their frustration toward BELIFT LAB, ENHYPEN’s agency. They criticised them for not giving Ni-Ki and the group enough relaxing time compared to other artists under HYBE. They stated that it’s unfair for young idols to work without proper rest or time to see family, especially during holidays. Many fans added that the agency needs to prioritise the well-being of its artists.
Ni-Ki’s words have shed light on the intense pressure K-pop idols face. Therefore, fans are demanding better care and work-life balance for their favourite artists. They also want more agencies to focus on mental health and well-deserved rest for K-pop idols. Well, they are humans too and need time to recharge.
