Kim Se Jeong honestly talked about her drinking habits on SBS’s variety show ‘Uh, but Like, Seriously!’
During the episode, I.O.I appeared together as a full group for the first time in 10 years since their debut. While talking about the members now being adults, Lee Su Ji asked if they had all tried drinking together.
Kim Se Jeong shared, “I really like alcohol”. She explained that she is not the type to drink heavily from the start, but likes to have a drink at the end of the day. She said, “When the day ends, I feel like I worked hard today if I have one drink.”
When asked if she drinks every day, Kim Se Jeong answered, “I drink about 2 cans of beer.” She added that sometimes one drink leads to another, saying she may then think about having “a little whiskey” or “just a little more”.
Kim Se Jeong also revealed that she used to drink after practice as a way to reward herself. She said, “My reward mindset was too strong, so after practice ended every day, no matter how tired I was, I drank one glass before sleeping”.
However, she admitted that the habit began affecting her condition. She said, “Because I drank every day, my brain was not working. It really could not continue.” She added that she is now trying to stop drinking for the sake of her practice.
Kim Se Jeong also explained why drinking gatherings are meaningful to her. She said she enjoys having honest conversations with the members, adding, “There are not many moments when we can have those kinds of talks. That time is very precious to me”.
