Minhyuk revealed that overcoming his fear of water wasn’t easy and there were several moments he felt he should simply give up.

Every time I would jump into the water, I would tell the instructor ‘I can’t do it.’ I would ask them to bring me back out of the water. I realized, however, that if I close my eyes and grit my teeth, I can do it. There’s nothing you can’t do. That’s what I learned, but I do feel like I would get scared to do it even now. But that’s the goal. The fear doesn’t ever disappear, but there is something to gain from it.

Despite Minhyuk getting a bit more used to the water, he admitted the water is still a bit scary for him, but he’s definitely progressing.

It still seems scary even now, but isn’t that the goal? It doesn’t eliminate the fear, but there are things to be gained.

I wanted to become a sweet man, so I wanted to get a Korean food license, but these days, my interest has dropped a lot.
