Singer Young Tak opened up about his past audition with JYP Entertainment and his journey towards a music career.

In a recent video released on Rain's YouTube channel 'Season B Season' on the 12th, Young Tak talked about his early days. He shared, “My father and uncle were professional soldiers. They suggested I follow their path, so I was getting ready to join the military when I unexpectedly found out about a music competition. I thought, 'If I win, I’ll celebrate with my friends,' so I entered and ended up winning the grand prize.”

Young Tak also recalled his move to Seoul at 22, saying, “I came here without much preparation and went to a lot of auditions. I even auditioned for JYP, but I didn’t make it.”

Struggling financially, he took on various part-time jobs. He remembered, “One day, I went to record a song for an election. It was Norazo’s 'Superman.' A few days later, the producer told me, ‘This song is doing really well.’”

Reflecting on his journey, Young Tak said, “I wondered if this was my chance to get noticed. Later, I worked on the song 'Why Are You Coming Out from There.'”

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
