Nam Jihyun admits she caught the 'celebrity disease' right after 4Minute's debut ... "I changed after the members pointed it out"

According to a recent report by Xports News, former 4Minute's member Nam Jihyun shared how she overcame the 'celebrity disease' in a video titled 'She earned 11 certifications ... Why 4Minute's Nam Jihyun became a Barre instructor' that was posted on the Youtube channel '1ma2c' on the 4th.

In the video, Nam Jihyun shared updates on her life after leaving the entertainment industry and actively working as a Barre instructor. She said, "While promoting in a girl group, I learned at a young age that nothing in this world comes free and that rewards only come through hard work."

She added, "I was always in an environment where we were constantly compared to others. Ironically, I learned how to evaluate myself objectively through the process where success is determined by rankings." She then honestly confessed:

"I used to have the 'celebrity disease.' Our debut song became a huge hit right away. As 'Hot Issue' won first place on music shows, I fell into the illusion that everything I touched would succeed. I mistakenly believed it was all because I was superior."

 

Nam Jihyun revealed that the ones who pointed out her 'celebrity disease' were none other than her fellow 4Minute's members, saying:

"I'm really thankful to the members because they told me, 'Unnie, the staff have been saying that you've caught the 'celebrity disease.' At the time, I was only thinking from my own point of view and saying things like, 'I don't want to do this.' I thanked them for letting me know and fixed my attitude immediately."

Looking back, Nam Jihyun reflected, "I have always been a fairly direct person, but I think it would have been much better if I had the mindset of, 'Thank you for giving me this opportunity." She added:

"I was immature back then. Deep down, I thought I was good at everything. I was close to becoming a monster."

Nam Jihyun exposes shocking remarks made by a director

SOURCE: 포미닛 남지현이 폭로한 충격적인 감독

During the filming of my first drama, the camera director said, 'You ugly b*tch, stand in front!' But I stayed bright. I thought, 'I should handle this with the power of positivity,' and said, 'The ugly b*tch is coming~' and he responded, 'Haha, look at her.' After we finished, he apologized to me, saying he didn't know I was from 4Minute.

COMMENTS: 

-Reveal that director's faceㅡㅡ Wanted: Ugly camera director.

-What a f*cking jerk.

-So if she wasn't from 4Minute, it would've been okay to say that...?

-Even his apology is ridiculous. Does that mean he wouldn't have apologized if she wasn't from 4Minute?? who does he think he is to say something so carelessly like that?

-That's insane. That basically means if she wasn't an idol, he wouldn't have apologized.

-Her mental strength is amazingㅠ

-There really seem to be so many trash in that industry.

-?????? So it's okay to say that if she wasn't from 4Minute?ㅋㅋㅋ Th reason he apologized is so ridiculousㅋㅋㅋ He's crazy.

-Like his own face is so great...?

-?? Wasn't Nam Jihyun known for being the prettiest member of 4Minute in person? Which part of her is ugly??

-I mean... Is it okay to say that if she was a nugu actress then?? Life must be so f*cking hard for nugus thenㅠㅠ

-Ah... He apologized because 4Minute has fans...

-I guess you need to have that level of mental strength in order to survive in the industry.

-Whether she's in 4Minute or not, talking to a human being like that is the problem. That's seriously crazy.

-Is he insane? Hul.

Kim Soohyun consistently made inappropriate remarks to child actresses

이거 봤어요? 13살인 ㄱㅇㅈ님보고 ㄱㅅㅎ이 너무 애기로 봤었나봐요 실제로 보니깐 카리스마 있고 당돌하고 총명하고 어리게 안느껴지고 성숙된 모습이 기대되고 빨리 상대역으로 만나볼수도 있을거 같습니다
이래요 진짜 너무 역겨워요 13살한테 이게 할말이야? https://t.co/pIMiG58S6B pic.twitter.com/OfesTc12Um

Did you see this? He said to KYJ who was 13 at the time, "I guess I saw her as too much of a child. Now that I'm seeing her in person, she's charismatic, bold intelligent, and doesn't feel young. I look forward to her mature appearance. I think we might be able to work together as love interest soon." That is really disgusting. Is that something to say to a 13 year old? 

He suddenly went and hugged her without saying anything. The actress was visibly surprised. 

For reference, Park Eunbin was a minor at the time.

He suddenly rushed onto the stage from the audience seat and handed her a gift.

Everyone was confused. Even fans wondered why he did that. But yeah, I understand now.

That was very disgusting. I hope to never see him again.

His special connection with Nam Jihyun:

From 'Will It Snow for Christmas?' to 'Giant,' he has a deep connection with child actress Nam Jihyun (15). However, they never once had a scene together in 'Giant.' This was because Nam Jihyun played the love interest of his on-screen younger brother, Yeo Jingoo. He laughed and said, "It felt weird, like my woman was taken away by my little brother.”

He didn't do anything wrong here, but during 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay,' he only took photos with the child actress of the female lead character... He didn't take any with his own character's child actor;;

There are probably many more of these remarks that haven't been dug up yet....

theqoo

-These are all famous child actresses, for f*ck sake.

-🤮🤮🤮

-This is so creepy and disgusting.

-The fact that he only does this to child actressesㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm sure there are actually more victims out there.

-How could this even happen?

-I'm really worried since 'The Moon Embracing the Sun' had a lot of child actors. It was my favorite drama ever, but I don't think I can watch it anymore now.

-Ugh, this is insane.

-The first clip is really disgusting... Look at how surprised she was.

-Wanting to play as the love interest of a 13-year-old and calling a 15-year-old 'my woman'...ㅋㅋ How did he think it was right to say that?

-At this point, the whole industry must have known about his behavior.

-Why did he do that to Yoojung?ㅡㅡ This bastard f*cker. He only preys on minors.

-I feel bad for his co-stars.

-He’s been making it obvious this whole time, but no one noticed.

-This makes me so angry.
