“Wake up with anxiety” wow this is a whole mood for my quarantined ass
Hahaha
His packed schedule gave me anxiety haha
true. every morning you wake up and think " s*** it's still corona time" worry about your sick + elderly loved ones, cry a bit, convince yourself to get yourself together, force yourself to smile and pretend everything is normal and begin your day.
That is my mood even without quarantine.
AHAHA I cracked
"I usually wake up about 10 am"
wow... that's late
"Dance rehearsals at 10pm"
Wow... THAT's late...
"I go to bed at about 4:40 am"
WOW... THAT'S LATE......
please stay healthy
That perfectly describes me throughout this whole video
I feel like with artists in general everything is later, like a lot of times our lives revolve around night time, we aren't really day/morning people most of the time (of course there are exceptions, but that's the general idea)
Well, I guess Hyungwon really wasn't exaggerating when he said most K-idols only get 4 hours sleep :c
Wow i quite suprise ..he go to bed on 4.30 am ..
i was very... concerned throughout this video haha (quarantine = sleep @ 3am wake up @ 1 pm :))
I’m the one who got tired after hearing how INSANELY packed his schedule is
I got tired too
bruh i literally wanted just to like sleep after hearing that lmao... I was like oof he only gets five hours of sleep, and then i realized on school days [when we actually went to school :')] i got 5-6 on average lmao
Me too
I got a little headache too
I'm exhausted
"I'ts the immediate heart attack as soon as you wake up so you wake up with anxiety" I freakin hate this thing so i set my alarm as calm as twinkle twinkle little star🙃
Mine too. I cannot wake up feeling like I was chased around in a horror movie. That thought alone gives me anxiety
Gloria Nhan ikr! just let us wake up in peace
ptbdrsr I mean if it works for him! 🤣🤣 this guy is truly something else 💗💗
But can you really wake up with that? I need a heart attack as him to be out of bed at time 😅😅😅😅
I have music set, right now its JBJ95's Awake.....
“I look like a Sesame Street character and not the cute ones. The ones that’s rough around the edges” 🤣🤣 I cant even.
If he looks like that imagine how we all must look. Sheesh. I probably look like freaking Chucky. I can’t look at myself first thing in the morning. Can’t scar my self that early. Lol
Emaan Farooq LOL! I think we all look bad. This is why I need a picture of him to prove he looks rough around the edges. Lol
When I wake up I look like Chewbacca if he was drunk.
Spidey poutine Lindsey Ellis has a video titles My Monster Boyfriend. The first comment is about Chewbacca... Just letting you know that some people have very unique opinions about that Wookie 😂
Eric has been in my recommended almost everyday.... His team and the algorithm are hella doing a good job at pushing his image out there. HIS MUSIC IS DOPE TOO!
Big up Eddie!
IKR SAME
He has a name you know
Gloomy X moon Yes I know I use the term DUDE very loosely but if it makes you feel better , ERIC NAM is a very cool dude !
ikr he got me into his music
Is anyone else really disturbed by the fact that he only sleeps like 4.5 hours every night and still looks fLaWlEsS?? Like is he a vampire or what??
korean skincare and makeup does wonders. Also he drinks a lot of water. and has good genes. idfk he might as well be a vampire
makeup
Yes I am!!! If I only got 4.5 hrs of sleep I would look like a zombie
E Crespo I’m even worse... I sleep like 9 hours every night and still look dead lmfao 😫😂
He’s definitely a vampire
I would pass out on the street if i had his routine.
haha same
celine mood
im too lazy for his routine, the dancing i definitely couldnt do
same
Literally 😂😂😂
This man is literally so relatable like he talks r e a l s h i t. He doesn't try to sugar coat anything, and I think that's a lot of why me and so many other people love him so much
How does he only get less than 5 hours of sleep and not have a breakdown every three seconds?! Dude pls, sleep is important we worry about you
thats not even a bad amount tho im writing this comment at 5am uk time ...
i generally get 4-6 hours of sleep, its not that bad especially when you have coffee
Well, go look up for his skin care routine, then you would understand
@@yoonross ok wow I'm impressed I need to have 8 hours otherwise I'm dead
I guess different people have different sleep requirements. I heard that if you gradually lessen your sleep time, your REM is like more effective or you get into REM sleep faster or something like that but I wouldn’t recommend it 😅
“I look at myself in the mirror and I’m usually shocked at how I look. And then I tell myself it’s going to be okay and jump in the shower.”
- Eric Nam -
Wise words son, wise words...Keep telling yourself that and you’ll be okay. ;)
I thought that Eric woke up kind of late until I realized he’s up until FIVE AM
Sarah he replied to my text at 6am korean time i- J EHEHHDDHJD
I like called him at 4:30 am and he answered and I panicked so I ended the call and fell off a sofa
(Hk time btw)
Zhou Sang Mei wait how do u call him? And message him? What? Using insta? Confusion :c
@@dancesr1233 I called him using his phone number and to the surprise he does answer calls but usually just text him if his not busy he does reply
@@Damianitsme dont do that. Thats creepy and stalkerish. He has social media for fan interaction. Why use his personal phone?
Tell me how he looks 20 but is 31..... LIKE HOW?!
Rakchhya Gurung I had literally convinced myself somehow that he was 21... wow your comment was a mind blower 🤯
@@ifip6693 he's just proof asians don't raisin
It must be the skincare routine! 😀
😯😶he is 31!?!?!?!?!? WHAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?!
Rakchhya Gurung LoL I look older than him and I’m 17
see this is why he can’t text everyone back my boy eric is so busy creating content for everyone ❤️ LOVE YOU ERIC ❤️
But maybe he'll get to your text eventually... There's still hope, don't loose it 😘💜
aaliyahxexo 1TEAM
Me at the beginning: Oh he gets up at 10, that's so late! Love that he's so resting well!!
Me at the end of the video: Eric honey you need to get some sleep 😤
"Nobody looks good out of bed" says this ridiculously handsome charming man
5 hours of sleep?? “GET SOME MORE SLEEP ERIC”
DON'T BE SHY SLEEP SOME MORE
@@mingisfixon6452 Edvasian hahahaha
@@mingisfixon6452 LMFAO
eric's like "i wake up at 10 and do an entire shower and skincare routine plus coffee and breakfast and then i leave at 1030" meanwhile i'll wake up at 10 and am still contemplating my existence by 1030
lmao same
Eric nam keeps getting recommended ... I think youtube is trying to tell me something
Then I just spend the whole day either on my phone or eating
jackson--
same
“I would rather just be aggressive and get in there and get it done.”
He’s right. Nothing like gum bleeding at 10 in the morning😁😁😁
We aren’t worthy of Eric Nam. He has been spoiling us with content and live-streams! 💗💗❤️❤️
Wakeup at 10am: Dann, that is kind of lazy
Sleeps at 5am: You only get 5 hours of sleep?
I guess the studies I saw saying Koreans only sleep on average 4-6 hours a day are not kidding
Christopher Yiwei Liang okay so he replied to my text at 6am south korea time so he either stayed up that late or woke up that early-
that's why the suicide rate is so high
it's never THAT simple.
Complex issues have several parameters.
Being sleep deprived doesn't help, for sure.
But that's normal for many of them.
I understand why you need eye cream now.
eye cream is literally just moisturizer but thicker
Sally Hope 😂😂😂
@@urface7668 its actually thinner not thicker
How does he do it? I’m still tried after sleeping all day
Probably cuz u sleep too much or wake at the wrong time during your sleep cycle
Same, I realized recently I must really have breakfast in the morning to avoid feeling too much like that.
You are tired BECAUSE you sleep all day lol. Too much sleep is as bad as too little sleep
Seeing his gorgeous face in my subscriptions always makes me smile.
I just got into Eric Nam 4 days ago and there SO MUCH content being released! Thank you for feeding us content in quarantine Eric 😌✌️✨ I've binged HOURS. 6am is my bed time now lmao
One of the only celebrities I’ve seen on here who wakes up around the time as me 😂
This video gave me some newfound respect for Eric Nam. I have always loved his music but the fact that he does all this in one day while also only getting 5 hrs of sleep while also looking freaking amazing is just incredible! Like wow. I'm impressed
My morning routine is quite similar to Eric's... except for the fact that my routine kinda ends after I do my skin care routine.
ERIC 5 HOURS OF SLEEP ISNT ENOUGH
It really isn't, It's unhealthy, and it dosent matter if they are used to it or not, it's unhealthy either way. Also, Alot of kpop-idols only sleep 1-3, hours so atleast he gets 5?
Idk. I found that sleeping 5.5 hours is perfect for me. If I sleep any longer I tend to be tired the rest of the day. But if I actually wake up after 5.5 hours I feel more refreshed & energized.
N. Jinx but it’s not good for your health. The right amount of sleep is at least 7 hours. You can get less sleep sometimes but every day is not good for you. And look how tiring Eric’s routine looks. I don’t think you dance until 2 am 😔
@@Lea-tr1in I understand what you mean, but I also don't think you can hold everyone to how many hours are healthy or unhealthy. (Unless it's an extreme amount either way.) Everyone's brain & needs are different, for me sleeping 7 hours I would end up feeling groggy & slow. I'm also the type of person who could take a 15-30 minute nap & feel refreshed. Maybe his brain is so use to being active it gets restless if he sleeps too long. Idk. But as long as he's eating throughout the day & resting at least a little I think he'll be fine. He said he takes time to unwind after too. I do agree some idols need to take it easier & I hope they get more sleep, but Eric seems to take decent care of himself.
N. Jinx That’s right, everyone is different but he travel a lot ( he said himself it was tiring because of time line ) and he seems to be really busy in the day so even if at the moment he feels good, I don’t think it’s good for his health for the futur but who am I to say what’s good or bad 🤷🏻♀️
So proud of Eric. I've been in the Nam Nation for years now and look how far you've come.
0:20 HIM SMILING WHEN SAYING "wake up with anxiety" IM DEAD LMAO
Anyone else shocked that his time in the bathroom routine is less than 30 minutes, including a shower and blow drying hair? It takes me that long just to examine my face in the mirror.
Just listening to his schedule made me tired lol 🙃
10am wakeup time? FINALLY a realistic routine
He sleeps for 4.5 hours ...
Is that the only part you saw? 😂
I don't think you watched the whole video😅
Did the person in that stock video really just grab their toothbrush by the bristles?!!
I can't unsee it now
Waking up at 10am? Have I finally found a regular human being among all the super-power k-pop idols?!
Wait, he goes to sleep around 5am...
Am I the only one who thinks his schedule is packed beyond words.... He has the energy to watch TV after such a busy day and sleeps for only 5 hrs.... OMG....
Bless you! Stay healthy!
Eric saying no ones looks good waking up
You know he right, HE THAT ONE HONEST IDOL
This is why
You should stand eric nam
Lol I can't get over the fact he went to my dad's high school. He definitely has the vibe too, love it!
ERIC IS FEEDING US CONTENT DURING THIS QUARATINE. SO IF I'M SANE AFTER ALL THIS GETS OVER ITS BECAUSE OF THIS GUY
Eric Nam is around the internet these days and I'm lovin' it! *chef's kiss*
wooow, his schedule pre-covid was really jam-packed. Hi Eric, I hope you're getting all the rest that you can during this quarantine. And thanks for the great content in your podcasts BTW. I SO LOVE YOU ❤︎
Eric Nam: singer by day, comedian by day and night.
i love eric nam, he's a whole mood but also a KING
his schedule is insane and he still looks flawless!! Respect! Love Eric:)
The way that I have pretty much the same sleep schedule as him but he's a whole kpop idol really says something
Eric Nam’s Alarm routine is the EXACT SAME as mine!🤣🤣
Does he really take only 30 minutes to get ready in the morning doing all that stuff? Wtf Eric, teach me the way! I'm slow like a zombie when I wake up lol
Every where I go I keep running into another Eric nam video!!!
him: "wake up with anxiety" says it with a smile like 😀
I love that Eric is popping up everywhere now lol I love to SEE it
I'm just on a Eric Nam spree, watching all the interviews he's been in. he's so sarcastic I love it.
Eric is LITERALLY in my recommended every single day and im not mad lol
Eric is so relaxing to listen to and seems like he has a great personality!
Omg. He and his team works so hard T^T he deserves the universe!💜✨
"I look at myself in the mirror and I'm usually shocked at how I look." Eric is the biggest mood XD
ive heard of this guy and this is the first time i ever watched him and omg i haven't even listened to his music and i already love him
I can't believe he's turning 32 this year 🗿
I, too, hit the snooze alarm 5-10 times before getting up and will set my alarm for 30 minutes earlier than when I actually intend to wake up.
why is he so relatable 😭
“YoUr DoG sPeAKs ChINeSE?” Sorry. I had to.
Nathalya Rangel Gomez I’m new here. What is this 😳 sorry
Tia Saville it’s something he said a few years ago. th-cam.com/video/tM-99uLvk2I/w-d-xo.html this is the video, so you can understand better and laugh a bit 😅😅
Plot twist: the dog actually speaks Chinese
1:08 why did I just find out who he is and how is in love with this cinnamon roll
This man is EVERYWHERE 😥
0:17 looks like Eric and I have the same taste in alarm sounds sksjsfjk
everywhere I go... I see eric’s face....
like seriously, everytime I open youtube he’s starring in a different video.
I mean, i’m completely okay with it 😂 keep it up eric!
omg at 0:56 he said he went to the bathroom and check the mirror to see himself AND HE WAS SHOCKED TO SEE HIMSELF and told that everything gonna be okay. THAT THE POSITIVITY WE NEED FOR THIS CENTURY !!!!!!!!!! 😂🔥
For the people looking for Eric’s skincare routine. Here you go
How to not love him... He is soo funny and talented😹😻
How are KPOP idols not losing their voice when using it so much everyday? Both talking and singing nonstop.
Now I don't feel guilty for watching this at five am in the morning
I literally see Eric Nam everywhere and on every interview you can think of lol but I’m not complaining 🌚💜
but can we talk about that blouse #fashiongamestrong
Lina I honestly need it
0:51 that is a straight mood
The alarm sound is so true, I remember having it for my school alarms and every time I’d hear it, it would for real give me a heart attack. 🤦🏼♀️😂
I'm so glad we have more Eric Nam content and interviews but please be healthy and get lots of sleep!!♡♡♡
how does this man only get 4.5-5 hours of sleep, have a crazy schedule and tour the world and still look like he’s in his early 20’s like... what is this magic! if i don’t look this good when i’m 31 i’ll cry
I’d honestly fall asleep if it was someone else explaining to me how they be brushing their teeth . But it’s Eric Nam afterall . I can totally listen to him talk the entire day & not feel bored ❤️
oh my gosh bless, he works so hard and gets almost no sleep - we don’t deserve him 😭
Wow what a schedule. And i’m sure Eddie tries to make it as less packed as he can! I love seeing Eric on my recs page!
Why is Eric nam so relatable ,especially the gen z now like I love him
Eric Nam is always a mood and a half!😂❤️😂❤️
Aw Eric :( I hope he’s not too tired or stressed . So proud of you Eric but also please take care of yourself ❤
Eric Nam is everywhere and nope I’m not complaining!
When Eric said his doctor said your scalp dries up when air drying,
I realized why my scalp was so dry...
Man Eric is freaking everywhere.
i love his personality, he's so underrated.
Honestly it would be fun to hang out with/follow an idol over the day and see everything that goes on behind the scenes.
LMAO when he said " I tell myself it's ok and jump in the shower" I was like SAMEEEE
Me at the beginning of the video: 10AM, what a beatuful life
Me at the end of the video: wtf how does he do that???
LIVING for all this Eric Nam content on TH-cam🙌🙌
COWARD YOU BETTER COOK ME SOME BACON PANCAKES. 🥺💕
Eric is everywhere rn and I'm not complaining 🔥
31 y/o teenager❤️
I'm loving him more now that I know how hardworking he is - stan Eric Nam!
The only thing I’m missing is MOTIVATION
eric nam is everywhere and i like it
he looks so soft ! i bet he smells like vanilla !!
More like coconut
A little like vanilla and honey tbh. Or at least that's what he smelt like when I met him in Chicago
