Female Idol Confesses CEO Threatened Her To Go On Extreme Reality Show
On September 17, Apink’s Hayoung appeared on a YouTube channel and shared how she went on the SBS variety show, Law of the Jungle.
In the episode, member Chorong revealed how happy they were at the new company.
I’m so satisfied that my new company welcomed me warmly and cared for me.
— Chorong
In July, Apink members Chorong, Bomi, Namjoo, and Hayoung moved to their new agency, With Us.

They also reminisced about their earlier years, as EXO’s Xiumin asked, “Didn’t you appear on many variety shows at the beginning of your career?”
Hayoung responded, “Eunji, Bomi, and Namjoo are energetic and fun, so they appeared on many shows.”
Hayoung and Chorong previously appeared on the extreme reality show, Law of the Jungle.
I wanted to go so badly that I volunteered to go. The hardest part was not being able to use the bathroom or shower. I couldn’t sleep well because my back was hurting.
— Chorong
However, Hayoung confessed, “I cried every day. I was the youngest, and the older members cared for me, but adjusting was hard. It rained so much that I even got blisters on my legs.”

When asked if Hayoung had also volunteered to go, she replied, “I didn’t. Our CEO, who is no longer here, said that they would cancel all my schedules if I didn’t appear, so I had no choice but to appear.”
Upon hearing this, Chorong responded, “Really?”
Meanwhile, APink debuted 2011 as a five-member girl group and released numerous hit songs, including “Mr. Chu” and “NoNoNo.”
