honestly op's words resembles me a little. i rarely mention it, but during my childhood and middle school i was in a dance ensemble and constantly dancing for 7 years (traditional, modern and ballroom). but i had to quit because of my family’s wish for me to focus on studying https://twitter.com/dearhyunjaes/status/1310206196477915137

it was my dream to become a professional, but i was just a kid and couldn’t say something against my family, so i had to quit dancing
and only after 10 years i started to attend classes and dance again as my hobby and after becoming a kpop stan

so yeah thanks to my idols, after many years i returned to something that i really like to do and enjoy a lot. while looking at juyeon and changmin i always gain some motivation and strength from them to keep improving my skills. they help me a lot not to give up

idk maybe it's too late for me now, my dream becomes just a dream, and i will not have a major in dancing but for now i just want to continue practicing and improving, so for the next time, when i'll have a chance to get up on stage, i can show to people the better ver of myself

the short summary of this thread - thank you, the boyz, for inspiring me and being my motivation
