These stars seized the unexpected opportunity and became famous
Red Velvet Wendy appeared on the online channel KBS Kpop’s program “Limousine Service” on November 14th.
In this program, Wendy said she didn’t know much about idols and that her friend asked her to accompany at the audition, so she followed her. The idol said she was persuaded by her friend to register at the audition site.
At the time of the audition, Wendy sang “Moon Of Seoul” and this led her to pursue her career as an idol. In the end, she debuted as the main vocalist of the popular girl group Red Velvet in 2014 and is now loved as an outstanding vocalist representing K-pop idols.
V, a member of the world-class group BTS, also went to audition with his friend, but he got accepted and entered the entertainment industry.
In September, V appeared on tvN’s “You Quiz on the Block.” He shared that his hometown was Daegu. He recalled that a friend said he was auditioning, so he followed him, saying, “I want to see people from Seoul.” However, his handsome face was very noticeable to Big Hit officials, and V was offered an audition. V proudly passed, showing his versatile skills such as dancing, singing, and beatboxing. It is said that V was the only one who passed the audition and his friend failed the auditioned.
V entered Big Hit and debuted in BTS after a little more than 18 months of training. As of January this year, BTS had a career of 370 wins in total and 77 grand awards.
Singer and actress Suzy was also cast while preparing for an audition with her friend and she’s now a superstar.
The anecdote of Suzy getting cast by JYP Entertainment after participating in the preliminary round of Mnet’s “Superstar K Season 1” is very famous. At that time, a casting staff saw Suzy and thought she was so pretty and bright so they waited 8 hours for Suzy to complete the audition.
Suzy participated in “Super Star K Season 1” preliminary audition because of her friend LABOUM’s Soyeon. Through that opportunity, Suzy successfully made her debut first, while Soyeon couldn’t achieve her dream.
Despite the feelings of joy and sorrow, the two continued to be friends and maintained a strong friendship. Soyeon later challenged “Superstar K 3” and Suzy, who had already debuted with MissA and gained huge love from the public, appeared on the show to show support for her friend.
Suzy has been active under Management SOOP since 2019. She is currently carrying out activities as an actress and a singer at the same time. In particular, Suzy recently surprised viewers with her drastic image transformation and smoking acting in Netflix’s drama “Doona!”. As such, she has established herself as a star who can do well in both acting and singing.
