Commonly referred to as SOPA, School of Performing Arts Seoul is among the most prestigious arts high schools in Korea. Many of its alumni are idols that you've probably heard of before, such as NCT's TaeYong, Stray Kids' I.N, and THE BOYZ's Eric.
However, have you ever wondered which idols currently attend SOPA? Here are 8 of them that do!
1. Kep1er's DaYeon
DaYeon is a member of SOPA’s class of 2022 under the school's practical dance department. One of Kep1er's first posts on Universe was a photo of DaYeon at school.

While on AYO’s “Comment Defenders”, Kim YeKang, a classmate of hers, said that other students would make fun of her. For this reason, she was surprised to see her take on the leader position in a team on "Girl’s Planet 999". She even went as far as to say that it wasn’t the DaYeon she knew! However, she also said that it was amazing to see her close friend on TV and it made her sad to see her cry on the show.
When interviewed over Instagram messages by a fan back in her trainee days, she was asked if she was satisfied with her school life at SOPA. Using this as an opportunity to express her unhappiness with being so busy as a trainee, she said that it's a shame that she rarely gets to participate in school events in her first year of high school.
2. fromis_9’s JiHeon
Said to be the smartest member in her group, fromis_9's "honey maknae" JiHeon is a member of SOPA's class of 2022 as well. She's enrolled in the school under the theater & film department and says that her favorite subject is history because she finds it fun.

Although she enjoys staying home and lying in bed, she seems to be a social butterfly at school! Sometimes, she does the choreographies to fromis_9 songs on TikTok with her schoolmates. Here’s one that she did with what seems to be at least a couple dozen of them!
