[instiz] aespa said they sleep just "total 5 hours" in whole week during comeback promotions

i'm sure they are exaggerating but it's like normal people preparing for their finals/ important tests/projects. You gotta put the work in to finish it on time.

How?

Quote from Lulu_Key

companies should get the idols to attend 6 music show in a row

do 3 this week, do the alternate 3 next week

That's what i've thought about as well. Do The Show, Mcountdown and Music Core one week, then Show Champion, Music Bank and Inkigayo the next week. Then pick 3 more shows for the third and final week. This will allow them to perform for three full weeks but only 9 total shows, giving them plenty of time to rest and even do less strenuous PR activities like fansigns, interviews, variety, etc.

I suspect they probably mean in their own bed and aren't counting all the naps in the waiting rooms, getting their makeup and hair done, while travelling etc.

Still, it's horrible.

5 hours a week?? so around 30 min a day????

coming from someone who loves to sleep and absolutely needs it for her mentail health I straight up consider this abuse and they should absolutely sue their company

(alongside other idols in similar situations)

proper sleep is incredibly important not just for mental but for your physycal health too, it will broke them down eventually especially since their diet habits probably are not the most healthy either and the stress that comes with their work just the cherry on top

Isnt it 4-5 hours a day?

5 hours sleep in a week is very unrealistic

That's insane. How are people coping with so little sleep in a week's time?? I wasn't even aware this was possible

Promotion weeks must be so exhausting to them, yet still they shine in all the performances and public appearances during those times.

A K-pop idol's life must be top sport sometimes.

If aespa had 5 hours sleep, did their Managers have any sleep?
