Everyone praised the person in charge of finding them and agreed they had a great eye.

I first got the Instagram DM casting me so I thought it was a fraud. H,owever, they called me after the DM, and they said they were from SM.

At first, it was a bit too difficult for me to go to Seoul alone…so I told them I didn’t think I could go. So they came to Mokpo.

I even took a camera test at some dance academy.
