A Kpop trainee gets candid about how he suffers from mental issues and tries to take his own life, as well as the process of getting therapy.
Beomhan, who trains under FM Entertainment, recently discussed his struggles with mental health during a live stream. He is a Chinese-American member of pre-debut group M.O.N.T Arena, who has attracted a lot of fans through various U.S events, and is known to be close with Boys Planet contestant Jay Chang.
Beomhan is known for his playful personality on social media, where he spends much time doing live streams and conversing with fans on various platforms. Despite making hilarious content, he has been very open about his mental health issues and even talked about his recent visits to a therapist and psychiatrist.
In particular, on March 8th, Beomhan revealed via a livestream that he recently visited a therapist and psychiatrist. While he admitted the therapist visit did not do much good for him, he says the psychiatrist “actually helped him.”
The male trainee also warned viewers with mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety and advised them to leave the stream, before confessing that he tried to take his own life back in 2022.
“And I was telling my therapist about it”, Beomhan said, adding, “And then she said to me ‘It feels like you couldn’t do it back then, but even though you couldn’t, you still feel dead.’ I was like ‘What the heck? Why did you say that?”
Throughout the entire talk, Beomhan tried to lighten the atmosphere through his sense of humor. The topic was difficult to discuss, so he later spoke about other things.
Seeing that Beomhan always shows a bright personality, many fans were surprised, showing their support by sending well wishes.
Beomhan’s story is an important reminder that mental health struggles can affect anyone, even those who seem to have it all together.
