"SM asked me to teach their artists speech methods and attitude for interviews. I asked SM, "You want me to stop one's true colors from showing through?" SM said yes, and I began the teaching. I hit their stomachs for vocalization. Usually, people do chest breathing so it's hard to learn abdominal breathing. I held a handball ball and hit their stomachs with it. Once I hit the stomach, they're able to produce sounds while breathing abdominally."

4. [+25, -2] The way SM educates their idols is really interesting... I heard that they send funny trainees to the gagman Jun Yoo Sung.

5. [+17, -3] On shopping channels, there's always these hosts who have unlikeable looks and voice tones.

6. [+16, -23] Is she even at the level to teach speech?

7. [+7, -6] If it was a guy hitting girls' stomachs, he would've been outed on Metoo.

8. [+6, -0] Don't they learn abdominal breathing from their vocal training?
