Tablo of the group Epik High recalled his school days.
On the 23rd, a video titled "Life counseling by Epik High in its 135th year of life" was released on the YouTube channel 'Epik High'.
In the video, Epik High's Tablo, Tuku, and Mithra listened to subscribers' life worries and spent time counseling them. They spoke candidly about a wide range of topics, from the anxiety of aspiring artists in the AI era to burnout, career choices, workplace harassment, fraud issues, and interpersonal relationships.
Among these, one subscriber suggested a balance game. The balance game questions were '5-year-old Tablo vs. five Tablos, 5-year-old Tuku vs. five Tukus, 5-year-old Mithra vs. five Mithras.'
In response, Epik High said, "First of all, there is no space on Earth for five Mithras. If you want them to fit in Seoul it would cost hundreds of billions, and they'd have to live abroad. The 5-year-old Mithra is being seen through his son, and that's not bad." Mithra said, "If it's me as five people, food costs would be enormous," drawing laughter.
Tuku said of "5-year-old Tablo," "I haven't experienced it, but I don't think it would be different from now." In response, Tablo said, "I was very quiet and didn't speak until I was about 8 or 9. Then I exploded because I realized I was funny," and added, "Some foreign kids at school bullied me and then burst out laughing at something I said. I thought if I did that I would be bullied less, so I started trying to be funny and then couldn't stop talking." Mithra expressed sympathy, calling it a "survival-type comedy style."
