What the staff thinks of TOP : The King of curiosity, he can feel with his body [~ Pt.Fourteen~]

At the beginning the member that disliked sports the most was TOP. Since we were unable to meet often, as expected the hardest person to approach was TOP. I think it was because of his role in <I am Sam> that he decided to start training. And so, we started to exercise together. Once he sets his mind on something, he will inquire about it in a scary manner. He’s the type that needs a reason to do something. Though, before that reason disappears, he will absolutely not set his eyes on something else.

He is very curious so once he’s curiosity is sparked, he’s the type that can’t resist. Once he has free time, he’ll go do strange experiments and would suddenly ask random questions. For example, he’ll call me in the middle of the night to ask “Ssabu-nim! I was curious so I wanted to ask. A 2-person portion of steak vs a 2-person portion of porkchop, which one has more calories?” Or he’ll tell you about “his personal experiments about whether eating 5 egg-whites (from boiled eggs) or eating only 2.5 boiled eggs (including the yolk) is more effective for building muscles.” Like this, he needs to personally experience it to be satisfied. If he achieves a good result, he will go at it even more passionately.

Honestly, a trainer isn’t just someone who tells how to exercise.When to sleep, when to get up, whent to eat and what you should eat, when to snack, what to do during vocal practice and dance practice, they must tell you how to deal with all the bits and pieces within a 24 hour day. If they don’t do that, then they’re not a trainer.

At beginning, TOP was the type of person who criticized everything about himself, it made him seem like a very burdened and depressed person. However, once he found the goal to exercise and to see results, it felt like he totally changed. Once he starts to trust you, he’ll have a little bit of aegyo and have a childish behavior sometimes.

One day he came to me and said “Ssabu-nim, I stole two oranges from the dorms for you”. He said this with a big smile and holding two oranges.
