For aspiring K-pop singer Jeon Sung-won, 18, time flies like an arrow. During weekdays, he spends five hours after school taking vocal and piano lessons. On weekends and holidays, his practice begins at 10 a.m. and continues until midnight. Jeon has been repeating this routine for more than a year. 

It is physically and mentally strenuous. But Jeon cannot ease off, knowing how competitive it is to achieve his dream ― the number of aspiring singers in Korea is estimated to be more than a million, according to several industry sources.
