The famous male idol singer left showbiz after a scandal, suddenly became a gardener!
This male idol gave up the showbiz glory to do what he wanted.
After leaving Teen Top because of the livestream scandal of smoking and berating fans, male idol C.A.P also stopped working in showbiz. Up to now, the former idol has revealed about his current life through his personal YouTube channel. Different from the glamorous life of a celebrity, C.A.P is now turning to a gardener. This is hard work and he gets paid 50,000-70,000 won ($50) for an area of 330 square meters. Each month, C.A.P earns just over 1 million won (about $900).
This is a low income in Korea but makes C.A.P very interested in work and feel happy with life. As an idol, he earns more money but has many physical and mental problems. The former idol emphasized that pursuing what you want to do is more than financial success.
C.A.P revealed more difficulties when working in the entertainment industry. When he was a trainee, he practiced the same dance over and over from 10am to 10pm. The company’s strict management also causes stress to the former idol, such as having her phone confiscated and having to ask permission to go to a convenience store. When he debuted, C.A.P was also sexually harassed by female fans, causing his mental breakdown.
Those obstacles caused C.A.P to take sleeping pills for the past 5 years. The male idol used to get drunk but couldn’t sleep, had to take medicine to forget the emptiness when he changed from the perfect idol image in public to his real self. But now, his health gradually recovered when he left the entertainment industry and did a normal job.
