Momoland's Yeonwoo reveals she was struggling with anxiety

AKP STAFF

Momoland's Yeonwoo revealed that she was suffering from social anxiety, and that was why she was absent from the group's schedules for approximately a month. Yeonwoo developed anxiety after reading numerous mean comments on the Internet. She was unable to star in the upcoming drama 'Mung Bean Chronicles' although she was offered a role, because of this very reason. 

However, Momoland's label MLD Entertainment confirmed she was able to overcome anxiety and she would be starring in the new tvN series, 'Cheap Chollima Mart'. 

The series is expected to premiere on September 20. Stay tuned for updates.

Dude, one month is not enough to get over social anxiety. It's enough time for a label to badger you into 'getting over it' and going back to work...

Honestly it is not surprising at all with all the pressure and public criticism weighed down on kpop idols that some develop anxiety or depression, it's not right but unfortunately it's highly unlikely that it will change anytime soon.
