original post: here

1. Johnny was still studying during his semesters and would go back during his vacations, so he would have a period when he wouldn't train at all during his trainee years

2. Kim Junsu was a trainee in another company before joining SM, so it's a bit longer than that 

3. Didn't Suho also attend Hanlim Arts Highschool in the middle, and they made EXO so he had to come back?

4. How can they endure more than 5 years? They were all babies... 

5. Seriously how do you wait for this long... Their mentality must've been so strong.. 

6. The people who trained for so long seriously...ㅜㅜ thank you for holding back 

7. Wow SHInee are amazing, the longest one was only 3 years 

8. This shows that debut is all about timing 

9. Right now, SMTR's Songha has been holding back for 10 years. How did he endure so much?

10. Wow Yuha took 8 years???
