"I Must Become a Close Friend to Myself"... The Meaning of Rest Found by Jini Is Back in a Private Sauna

In the effort to fill every day with density, there are times when one needs to rest without any specific purpose. Singer Jini Is Back shared a sincere story about how to take care of oneself through time spent in a private one-person sauna.

The video released by Jini Is Back captures the process of visiting 'Sisu House', a one-person sauna located in Sinsa-dong, to take a rest. While enjoying the heat treatment, she used the amenities and sauna supplies provided in the private space, spending time entirely for herself. In particular, due to the nature of a one-person sauna, the core of this rest was the ability to use the bath or undergo heat treatment comfortably without being conscious of others' gazes.

"When it feels like I'm walking in place"... An attitude toward facing anxiety

While resting and sweating in the sauna, Jini Is Back opened up about the sudden worries about life that come her way. She confessed that although she tries to fill her days with different routines every day, she sometimes feels anxious that while everyone else is moving forward, she alone might be walking in place or even retreating. Her honest feeling is that these thoughts suddenly visit her every night before falling asleep.

However, to avoid being submerged in this anxiety, she asks herself questions. Through questions like "Is it absolutely necessary to live that way?" and "Does life definitely need a destination?", she maintains a mindset that it is okay to go a little slower. This is read as a comfort delivered to modern people who feel pressured by daily achievements.

How to be generous to oneself, "Lowering the threshold of happiness"

Jini Is Back connected the realization gained through rest to her 'attitude toward treating herself'. Reflecting on whether she has lived strictly with herself while being generous to others, she expressed her will to become her own best friend and enrich her life. In particular, her statement that "the threshold for happiness must be low" shows her attitude of trying to discover small joys in daily life without pushing herself too hard.

She also reminisced about memories with her family, mentioning a tumbler she has used since she was 20 years old. The experience of going to a performance with her family and the pride she felt at that time is one of the ways she finds happiness in daily life. She emphasized that in a busy modern society, acts such as going to a sauna, getting a massage, or drinking a favorite tea are essential processes for taking care of oneself, going beyond simply resting the body.

After finishing all her schedules, Jini Is Back said, "Tomorrow, I will fill the day to the brim again and fill my head to the brim as well," showing she is ready to return to daily life based on the energy gained through sufficient rest.
