Seo In-young recalls hearing gossip in KAIST restroom during TV show filming

Singer Seo In-young revisited her time at KAIST, the prestigious science and technology university, recalling an uncomfortable experience during her attendance for a television show. While appearing on the 2008 Mnet program 'Seo In-young's KAIST,' she visited her 'alma mater' and reminisced about her experiences.

During her visit, documented on her YouTube channel 'Seo In-young's Redemption,' she met with friends from her university days. Seo reflected on their kindness in associating with her, acknowledging that some students might have questioned her motives for being there, perhaps suspecting she was only using them for her broadcast.

“

I heard gossip about me in the bathroom. While I was peeing, someone in the next stall said, 'Why did she come here?'

Seo recounted an incident where she overheard gossip about herself in a restroom at KAIST. As she was using a stall, she heard someone in the adjacent stall question her presence. Despite the hurtful remark, Seo expressed empathy, recognizing that her celebrity status and inability to fully commit to the academic rigor might have been frustrating for the dedicated students.

“

They were all diligent students, so it must have been annoying that I, a celebrity, suddenly showed up, couldn't keep up with study times, and acted like I belonged.
