Recently, a clip from BTS J-Hope’s sister’s YouTube video garnered much attention online.
| @hopeworld.7/Instagram Aside from being siblings, many felt that their drive and outlook on life were similar. In the clip from a video posted two years ago, she revealed how she overcame her time studying abroad.

“I lived with my cousins at my uncle’s house. Since I was with family, I didn’t feel lonely, but my cousins couldn’t speak Korean at all, so I felt slightly lonely and quite homesick.
If you’re lonely, write in a diary. There is no one else who will listen anyway. You need to endure it. You decided to study abroad and wanted to live an improved life because it’s the path you chose to learn a new language. You just need to endure it.
But being lonely is difficult. My mom told me not to call her if I’m going to speak Korean. So, I wrote a lot in my diary. There was a lot of cursing in my diary. When you’re lonely, I recommend writing in a diary.
And if you endure that time, you will have acquired skills that others don’t have. Look forward to that and endure to become a winner.”
— Jiwoo
Many fans were inspired by her message and felt that this type of mindset was in their family DNA.
넘 인상적이라 첨으로 끌어와봄
집안 dna에 있는듯..견디고 헤쳐나가고 버티는게 승자 똑부러지셔 고1때 한국인1도 없는 텍사스학교로 갔고 한국말로 할거면 전화도 하지말랬다는 어머니도 대단하시네ㅠ 네살차이니까 호석 초딩때인듯.. 집념의 dna 믿습니다🙏pic.twitter.com/5YM1sY0osM

Her message left a big impression, so I’m sharing it here. I think this is the family DNA. The way they endure, overcome, and persevere to become a winner. It’s amazing that she was the first Korean exchange student at her high school in Texas and that he mother told her not to call if she was going to speak Korean. Since she is four years older than J-Hope, this must’ve been when he was in elementary school. I believe in the DNA of tenacity.
Jung siblings really share the same trait.. "NEVER GIVE UP" and "it's all about pride" that's why they are very strict and firm in terms of goals and achievements https://t.co/MYUkJL8tXY

Dedication and grit really runs deep in Jung siblings. Their parents must be so proud https://t.co/kUNrvJg8nv

Actually she really gives off the impression na strong-willed sya, based on the few things i knew about her and her career. Just like hobi too, pursuing and enduring despite all the difficulties. Must be a family thing if they both have that trait. https://t.co/8T92D6aNMe

I love Jiwoo’s advice on writing journal. It’s how I do when I feel lonely I write journals. Also, I’m just surprised to learn Hobi has relatives in Texas and Australia. 😳 I’m wondering if their relatives still in Texas? This video was 2 years ago. https://t.co/RynzciAJIY
