Her honest confession sheds light on the intense pressures idols face behind the glamour and success.<\/p>\n
On a recent podcast on YouTube, the idol spoke candidly about her journey as an artist and the toll fame took on her as a teenager. Despite the group\u2019s growing popularity at the time, she admitted that the reality of juggling work, school, and constant performances pushed her to her limits.<\/p>\n

When the topic turned to how she handled fame at such a young age, Chaeyoung revealed that during TWICE\u2019s rookie years, she would sometimes sleep for only half an hour a day. This exhausting schedule continued for nearly a month. \u201cIf I slept a lot, it was like two or three hours,\u201d she confessed, recalling how severe the lack of rest had become.<\/p>\n
She went on to explain that the \u201cCheer Up\u201d and \u201cTT\u201d era was the hardest time of her career. At the time, she was still attending school while juggling back-to-back promotional activities, leaving her physically and mentally drained. \u201cThat was the hardest for me,\u201d she said.\u00a0 The fatigue eventually took such a toll that the idol began questioning whether she could continue her career as an idol. \u201cI was like, \u2018I can\u2019t do this,\u2019\u201d she admitted, recalling how close she came to giving up entirely.<\/p>\n
Her decision led to multiple disagreements with her mother, who encouraged her not to quit after training for more than three and a half years. \u201cMy mum said, \u2018Isn\u2019t it a waste that you trained so hard for three and a half years and now you\u2019re not even doing anything?\u2019\u201d she shared.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on those words, Chaeyoung realised she might regret her choice if she walked away from everything she had worked for. That moment of clarity and her mother\u2019s support gave her the push she needed to keep going. And it\u2019s true what they say, \u201cmothers know best\u201d, as years later, TWICE have renewed their contracts for the second time<\/a>, continuing stronger than ever.<\/p>\n Today, looking back, her story serves as a reminder of the immense dedication and resilience behind TWICE\u2019s success. It also highlights the personal sacrifices that often go unseen beneath the spotlight.<\/p>\n Watch the podcast here:<\/p>\n![\"YouTube](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760084949_914_hqdefault.jpg\"\/)
