๐งธ my dream wasnโt actually to be an idol
๐งธ i wasnโt studying particularly hard eitherโฆ i liked playing guitar, but not enough to pursue it as a majorโฆ i was the kind of student who liked playing the guitar just as a hobbyโฆ.so you know how around 8th or 9th grade when you think a lot about your future pathโฆi was really thinking a lot over how my life was going to turn out. and right around that time, i got invited to a performance at an arts high school through my band and i ended up getting scouted at the celebratory concert
๐งธ i got cast at mystic & bighit and i actually wanted to go to mystic because i really loved playing the guitar so i was like โdad, i donโt even know what company bighit isโฆโ because this was before the (bts) hyungs became big so i was like โi want to go to mysticโ and my dad was like โbeomgyu, youโve practiced the guitar really hard and although you canโt danceโฆwhat if you joined bighit, worked really hard and became the center of a part?โ and since i was an attention seeker back then
๐ค everyone is like that when theyโre young
๐งธ yeah, i really loved getting attention so i was like โokay! iโll practice hard and give becoming a center at bighit a go!โ so i sealed the deal with bighit and on my way to seoul, the song โblood, sweat and tearsโ by the hyungs blew up
๐งธ thatโs when โbighitโ started getting really big and since i became a part of the debut line up as soon as i joinedโฆi practiced like crazy and debuted
๐ค your dad made the perfect judgement for his son and opened up the way for you
๐งธ thatโs right, i was really glad even with just the fact that he trusted me and sent me to seoul by myself
