EXO member Baekhyun took a trip down memory lane and shared a special moment from his trainee days with Lee Soo Man.
On September 5, the YouTube channel ‘Frugal Hyung Shin Dong Yup’ released a new video.
During the video, host Shin Dong Yup asked Baekhyun, “If you had been in a co-ed band with a vocal position, wouldn’t you have been really popular?”
Baekhyun laughed and replied, “I didn’t feel popular at all,” drawing some playful laughter from the crew.
He then recalled, “The girls in my class would say, ‘I really don’t like Byun Baekhyun’ when they saw me. I was quite mischievous. But during a retreat or something, a close friend would tell me, ‘You’re pretty popular these days.’”
Shin Dong Yup followed up, “You didn’t train for long before becoming the main vocalist, right?” Baekhyun said, “I was lucky. It’s true that ‘opportunity comes suddenly.’”
He continued, “During my trainee days, Lee Soo Man brought in some investors for a company tour. I was in the middle of a vocal lesson when he suddenly asked, ‘Are you the new trainee? Want to sing?’ I sang, and it went really well that day.”
Baekhyun smiled and added, “When you do something well or feel good about it, you sense it right away. At that moment, I felt like I was about to debut.”
