After securing her college spot, Seul Ki began to earn her own allowance.

It was stated that she never dropped below 2nd place in every competition she entered, earning the nickname Con-Seul Ki, a play on concours. With the money from wins, she also worked as a page-turner, a wedding and church pianist, and more to support herself.
