During the November 10th installment of 'Name List 2014,' idol-actor Siwan and actress Kim Tae Hee revealed their outstanding report card during their school days, confirming their status as elite students.
On the 'Star's Masterpiece Report Card' segment, which lists celebrities to score in the top 1% on the admissions exam, Siwan and Kim Tae Hee placed 4th and 1st on the list. According to the show, Siwan consistently placed high during his middle and high school years and was accepted into Busan University, a top university in Korea.
Siwan's high school teacher stated, "He was good at studying and clever. He had good relations with his friends too." The ZE:A member himself also told the production team, "In school, I would get special lessons from a different school every week with a specially selected group of gifted students."
In addition, Kim Tae Hee, who ranked at the top of the 'Star's Masterpiece Report Card' list, was also revealed to be one of the elite students who scored 100% in all subjects all throughout middle school. Kim Tae Hee is one of the few celebrities who was accepted into Seoul University, the top University in Korea, as special admissions.
Her middle school professor stated, "During the 24 years of teaching, It was my first time seeing someone score 100% in all the subjects throughout 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year. It wasn't even the issue of placing 1st in the school, but because she had scored all 100s, there was no one to follow Kim Tae Hee's grade."
Kim Tae Hee also revealed that her secret to studying was to study at one's own pace, and to never give up. She said during her talk concert in 2013, "Rather than following the path that your parents or others believe to be successful, you should choose what you think you would do best in as well as what you like to do."
