On the November 29th episode of SBS 'Strong Heart', Wonder Girls leader Sunye revealed, "A lot of people started recognizing me after my public TV auditions, however, I wasn't unable to properly adapt to a new environment. My dad was very ill at the time. I was very concerned about the future during the most vulnerable years of my adolescence." As a long-term trainee at JYP Entertainment at the time, Sunye felt anxious thinking about the future once her family situation became difficult. She decided to audition for a music festival that was being held at her school in order to test her singing skills. Sunye challenged herself to perfect Whitney Houston's "Greatest Love of All" for the school auditions. This song is difficult to sing even under the best physical conditions, but Sunye, who was overcome with nervousness and anxiety, became ill. She continued to excuse herself to use the restroom during class -- there was no way she was going to ace the auditions. "I completely ruined my audition and I returned home to weep, questioning my identity. I began toying with the idea of suicide," she revealed. She opened the medicine cabinet and picked up any bottle. She dumped a heapful of pills into her hand and shoved as many as she could into her mouth. With tears still flowing down her cheeks, Sunye headed for her practice room after taking the pills. She began playing the piano and it was then that she regained her confidence and reclaimed her identity. She visited a doctor shortly after, and after explaining what had happened, the surprised doctor informed her that everything actually seemed to be okay. "Overdosing on any kind of medication usually poses a lot of issues but he told me everything was fine," Sunye said. "Everyone has their moments, especially during puberty where adolescents get lost and confused trying to find themselves, but above all, its most important to learn to love yourself," she concluded.
