All these idols taking breaks because of anxiety disorders ... I never fully understood what that meant until I was diagnosed with it earlier this year. Its debilitating, and the stress in my life is minimal compared to what idols must face daily. Glad these companies are recognizing that and giving them the breaks they deserve. Just sad it took so long for them to start doing it

I'm so sorry to hear this, but I'm also somehow happy that nowadays more and more idols dare to talk about their real problems, their feelings, dare to say out if they need a break. I hope someday this can also help to change the current kpop system, where break is not allowed for many idols and they can't have private life without fans getting upset, where they can't be themselves many times.
