Test-takers bundled up wearing coats and padding over their school uniforms, and members and fans cheering them on were also sure to dress warmly. Despite the early morning, they all look confident and ready to conquer the test!

Some idols, however, opted to not take the test and instead focus on their careers as entertainers. A few of those idols include TWICE's Chaeyoung, NCT's Haechan, Jeno, and Jaemin, and others.

No matter their decision or result, we wish them all the best!
