How the heck to introverted idols deal with being around people ALL day without going insane?

bcos maybe they feel more comfortable expressing themselves on the stage

I have actually thought about this too. But I think since being a celebrity is a job they probably suck it up and deal with it?

When they start off, they are in a group with people you already know and any group is bound to have a few people that take the lead with variety and stuff. So as time goes they start viewing their environment differently and maybe get advices here and their from their seniors on how to navigate the industry.

P.S. this is my take on how introverted idols deal with celebrity life. Please feel free to correct me.

Suga just sleeps all day to cope XD There's recorded proof in BANGTANTV (BTS's Bamgtan Bombs) LOL~~

Wait lemme ask my wifey Irene...

Update: sha said fvck myself kdjdndjdd

respect to them honestly

the money helps

One of the biggest mysteries for me as well. Literally 80 percent of idols seem like and test as introverts. Twice is all introverts except for Sana, even Nayeon and Jihyo tested as introverts IIRC. Then you have people like Mina who dont leave the house for days or even weeks except to get food. Izone has maybe 2-3 extroverts in a group of 12.

Why would these introverts choose a career that is literally defined by social interaction? Like the social obligations literally never stop, even in those rare moments when you're alone at your dorm, you could have a Vlive or Insta scheduled.

I'm an introvert and I have to talk and touch so many people daily. It takes hours to calm my mind before I can sleep.

Beats me, I'm an introvert who is always around extroverted people and it drains me so I don't know how idols do it.

They have to endure it i guess, i mean they are the ones who choose that kind of life

And as an introvert, after dealing with a lot of people for an entire day i needed a week of alone time to recover from it.

You can just take out your phone and do your own thing until it is your turn, Idk

Even im surprised. when I go to someones house for a party or gathering, I always have this need to escape after 2 hours have passed, even if I know the people well.

I think introverted idols probably change their mindset regarding their career and just stick with it. it probably helps that a lot of groups have a mixture of extroverted and introverted idols. Like D.O doesnt talk much because, there is a Chanyeol, Baekhyun (who is also an introvert but loud) and Suho in the group.

Maybe other introverted members helps, or they make each other comfort. Like some introvert do enjoy crowd if they're with people they're comfortable with. For example, I'm able to spend a school music event talking with my friends at the back

Here's my take: same with us ordinary people, except since they live in a dorm, they'd have to manage their 'energy.' I don't think we always see them when they're doing Lives, besides, not everyone is always present on those. They'd either retreat to their rooms (if they're lucky to have one each, which I doubt) or to their personal corner. Once you learn how to effectively block the people around you, it becomes easier to co-exist with them even when you're not feeling it.

As for their jobs, it's part of what they do so they suck it up. Also, introverts don't always mean we're lonely or people haters; we tend to get fired up if we love and are passionate about what we do. We just need to recharge if things are too much. We also learn to adjust.

They just do it. I'm an introvert with social anxiety. So when I have to talk in front of people I die from the inside but as soon as I actually talk, I calm down a little. So they probably just suck it up because it's their job so they have to. I guess their love for being an idol is bigger than the fear. Because it can't be the money alone. Many idols were already rich

You can be an introvert and still learn how to deal with people. It’s just a matter of mental practice

Introverts don’t change their personality to try to fit in. They just a find a way to cope with it
