April Kiss' Xiho reveals she used to be a model and a teacher

Posted by heartfacee5 pts Thursday, September 8, 2011

April Kiss member Xiho was revealed to have an interesting past. Currently, she is the main rapper of the group, but back in 2006-2007, she worked as a teacher for a high school in Daejeon. Having graduated from Gongju University with a major in social education, Xiho was recruited as a teacher for a year for the subject of social sciences. Going further back, Xiho was revealed to have been a magazine model during her high school years. Her parents were opposed to the idea of her becoming a celebrity, so she decided to focus on her studies. In the end, however, she went back to modeling and made a career in Korea as well as in Hong Kong. Shiho said, "I like a stable job like that of a teacher, but I gave it up to become a model and a singer, something I've wanted since I was young. I am trying hard to become a daughter my parents will be proud of. I will keep showing my improving image, so please cheer me on." Fans commented, "Teacher, model, and singer! So cool", "She really is good at everything. She must be an ambitious one", and "I wish I could get taught by Xiho." Meanwhile, this group is being called 'barbie-idols' because they all have Barbie doll-like figures. They are currently promoting their debut song, "Hello Bus". Source: DongA via Naver
