mistressnicey 25,196 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 From my bias group... Dongwoon I actually think Beast intentionally comes back when there are no classes more or less for the past 3 years... mid-May 2011-Fiction August 2012 - Beautiful Night August 2013 - Shadow...

heuieuu 564 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I don't understand why idols go to college to study music or acting Why study it if they can already do it and get jobs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandyCane23049 44,319 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I don't understand why idols go to college to study music or acting Why study it if they can already do it and get jobs? Because they may want to do stuff later on, they can't be an idol or act forever. Like for instance Taecyeon basically has started his own brand with Okcat and if I remember he is majoring in business relations or management something in that area. Jun. K is in college too music related and he loves to compose/produce music same goes for Wooyoung he's in college for music too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dopamine 4,805 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Sunggyu, Dongwoo, Hoya, L, and Sungyeol graduated from a 2 year Practical Music program at Daekyung University earlier this year. They are all now at Hoseo University-- Sunggyu, Dongwoo and L are still Practical Music majors, and Hoya and Sungyeol are now studying acting. Woohyun is a Broadcast and Entertainment major at Dong-ah University, and Sungjong is enrolled at Kongju University, not sure what he's studying but last year he said he wanted to go into the video arts field.

K is in college too music related and he loves to compose/produce music same goes for Wooyoung he's in college for music too. I understand Taecyeon's decision, but I don't understand singers who have full contracts that go to college to get degrees in music when they have proved that they can sing for a living. After idol contracts end, companies sign people based on potential worth as a part of the agency, not whether or not they have better abilities than others. Even if a pretty irrelevant idol member gets a music degree from Julliard, after the idol contract is up, there will be very little offers by companies to take them in since they have very little chance of bringing in money based on their popularity when they leave the group (and most stars after being an idol end up going nowhere even really popular idols of popular groups) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimOppa 1,959 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 For EXO members .... Suho got accepted into Korea National University of Arts back in 2009-10 .... But he took a temporary absence for two years now to focus on EXO. Also, Luhan was an exchange student for Yonsei University back in 2008 (Not sure if he continued) That's all~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta77 985 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 TVXQ's Changmin has Bachelor degrees from Kyunghee University and Konkuk University ( Film and Arts) and is currently double majoring ( masters and Ph.d ) at Inha University. Yunho has a masters degree in music from Chungwoon University and bachelors degree from Myongji University. They have both been ambassadors for their respective universities.

Kwon wants to be a singer forever, that's why he chose to major in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Jun. K and Wooyoung are in school for composition in music, IMO Jun. K is already good in that area but maybe he just wants to get better than he already is.
