140218 B1A4'S LIFE GRAPH - JINYOUNG, CNU

# Jinyoung's life graph: King of positivism Jinyoung 

 

Leader Jinyoung's life graph is simple. To the point that he would express his younger days, middle school days and high school days as being easy. Jinyoung discovered his flair for leading early when he was elected as vice-president of the student body in 6th grade of elementary school. He expressed that he would promote and appeal to people ever since young, revealing the secret to having been elected as vice-president. His active predisposition also shone during his high school days. Even though he says high school passed easily, Jinyoung attended a foreign language high school, possessing an elite personal history. His photograph also won first place in a poll on Mnet's homepage, and was casted in various dramas as an extra.

Even though he had a fancy personal history, Jinyoung chose the moment from when his life started to be when B1A4 debuted. He expressed energetically as though he were a sports announcer, 'after debut, only happy things remain - and the graph keeps ascending due to us receiving our rookie award and holding a solo concert. Then there is getting first place on all 3 public broadcast music shows! Getting cast for 'Suspicious Granny! And it goes up up up with us winning our triple crown at age 24!" Jinyoung is not only receiving a lot of love with 'Lonely', but he is also spending happy days with the success of 'Suspicious Granny'. On 13 February he held a free hug event to thank everyone for surpassing the 5 million mark. Jinyoung commented, "It is my screen debut and I am dazed yet happy that the movie is doing so well. I think it was only possible with all the good seniors and staff. I will continue to work hard in future. Thank you to everyone who loved the movie, please watch it nicely".

The times that Jinyoung thought were difficult was only when he had to get up early when he was younger. He looked back on his younger days and said that it was really tough to get up in the mornings to go to school. However now, he is a member of an idol group that is so busy promoting that they have to take catnaps. This is as good as an assumption to how hard he works, and at the same time you can see the aspect of King of Positivism Jinyoung. Despite having faced with frustration many a times, he did not draw it out in conversation. "I have many positive thoughts, so I do not really bring up the unpleasant moments," he commented while expressing his excitement for the future, about what is to happen on his life graph. 

# CNU's life graph: Deep thoughts that others do not know about 

Looking at the way he pondered over how he felt when he was born, CNU seems to have the deepest thoughts amongst the B1A4 members. "The first point of my life graph is a random spot that is neither high nor low, on a white piece of paper," he said. "Was I happy when I was born? Was I thankful? I'm not too sure how I felt," he expressed as he started his life graph.

CNU spoke about the hard times they had before debut, commenting that after their debut he has only had good things happen to him. "A few friends and I formed a band by the name of Gaepgol when we were in high school, but we didn't have a space to practice in or musical instruments. Thankfully the music teacher bought us instruments so after much complications we managed to practice," adding on that he wanted to make sure of this chance to thank that music teacher.

His passion for music brought him up to Seoul. Even though he came up from Chungcheongbuk-do with a hopeful heart, his repeated failures in auditions caused him to be embarrassed to even look his elder sister straight in her face. However she patted him on his back and told him not to be disappointed upon failing the auditions, and it was then CNU gathered up more courage. He went on to win an award with a friend at a youth festival, and became a trainee. "I was really happy to even become a trainee because it felt like I was one step closer to dream," he said. CNU then honestly expressed his feelings through dotted lines. He explained that he had a hard time psychologically due to loneliness from being alone out of the town and the future being ambiguous. With the debut of B1A4, he removed those thoughts from his mind.

Even though he drew an ascending graph that expressed how B1A4 was all over the place winning rookie awards, first place awards and holding their solo concerts, you can see inconsistent lines that go up and down. CNU explained that among the continuous moments of happiness there are confusing and mysterious feelings mixed inside - he felt happy but it is hard to explain the situation. "There is pressure and a sense of responsibility to have to do better. There were times that I questioned myself if I was actually doing well," revealing his deep thoughts. He continued, "Every time that happens, the fans hold onto me. I will work even harder," thanking the fans.
