He continued, “When I was in my last year of high school, my friend said he wanted to audition for SM Entertainment, so I went with him. Since I was there, I naturally ended up auditioning for the company as well, although I wasn’t prepared.” 

He went on, “The staff at SM Entertainment were like, ‘We’ll pass you on to another company.’, and that ‘another company’ turned out to be JYP Entertainment.”
