whenever there’s an idol who i feel like i relate to VERY strongly, like i feel like they have a very similar personality to me and they react to situations and conversations in much the same sort of way that i would... they often end up leaving their groups :(

the two examples that come to mind immediately are Jiyoon from Weeekly and Jieun from Purple Kiss. apparently Jinni from NMIXX also has a similar mbti. i dont really care that much about mbti, i dont think it’s a perfect scientific thing or anything, but i do think it sort of generally indicates that people who get similar results to me have similar personalities to me, even if you could answer two different mbti tests on the same day and get two different results. anyway, whenever i feel like there’s an idol who i can just look into their eyes and see aspects of myself... i’m always kinda bracing myself for the news of them leaving their groups for mental health reasons. because damn man.... i get it. the kpop industry would be AWFUL for your mental health, especially if you’re already starting out with it being bad. i’m sad those members left their groups, but at the same time, i can’t blame them. they probably stayed longer than i would have, because they’re stronger than i am. 

also for what it’s worth, i dont know why Jinni left. im not sure anyone’s really stated anything about it and i’m not trying to speculate, and tbh i only really got more into learning about the NMIXX members during Love Me Like This, so i don’t know a lot about her. i’m just saying that recently i found out she was similar to me and i was like “oh. damn. yeah. that’ll happen.”

anyway. Mashiro from Kep1er is also someone i feel like i relate to super strongly, but i dont think there are any signs that she’s not doing well or anything. i just have an urge to be very protective of her. idk. anyway
