Of dancers and performers

I saw a post on tumblr. About uh...Jongin..? I don't know who he is. His leg was injured and he was hurting but he continued to practice dancing. And someone commented about how professional he was.

Momiken on the other hand, caught a flu and didn't come to perform on Coming Soon. But nobody said anything except Odaijini which was what I said too. lol

Out of the two, who do you think is the real professional?

My take?

Momichan.

Not because I hate kpop lol

But. As a dancer, a performer, I think if you can't give your 100% why bother? People wants to see the best of you, not the, "HOMG HE'S HURTING BUT HE'S TRYING HIS BEST FOR USSSS." No. Well maybe sometimes people do want to see that. But I thought as a performer you'd want to display the best of you.

What would make that Jongin dude a professional is if he actually stops practicing. Mend his hurt. And watch the practice and once his leg is okay, quickly learn it all.

That is a professional.

Seriously by forcing yourself to do things your body aren't ready to do isn't going to bring you anywhere. It's gonna hurt more and more and in the end, your body will give up. And then you have to stop. For good.

Not something anyone would want. No?

Seriously. Some people needs to get their definition of professionalism correct.

Momichan, GANBARE!

Hurmm. Meaning of professionalism is very subjective and everyone has their own definition.

Sometimes, I dont get people's mentality on this matter. "OMG, he's injured but still continue to perform. OMG, he's very pro" Cut if off! This might send mixed signals to the fans.As much as they want to see their favorite artist onstage, many probably also don’t want to see him overwork himself for their sake.

I read some article about Koshi Inaba, he said something like this " Being a professional, you have to take care of your body well. That's your duty when you become a professional"

Well, I think Momichan is professional than the other in this situation.

Exactly. It depends on people's definition, but still..thinking that performing while being injured is a tad too much.

It's disrespecting to the body. And it could be dangerous too.

Koshi Inaba is so right. No matter what work you're in, you can't afford being careless and gets sick/injured needlessly that will delay your work. Be in a professional performer,or just some other profession.

And YAY 2 votes for Momichan! Sadly, thousands in tumblr is voting for the other dude. Le sigh..
