Choi Yena mentioned her experience working with BTS Jin on MBC's entertainment program 'Radio Star.' The episode aired on the 8th as a special titled 'Survived the Feeling,' featuring Jang Jin, Kim Jihoon, Kim Kyungran, and Choi Yena. Choi Yena revealed that thanks to BTS, she had a world-class experience.
Choi Yena said she received a featuring offer for Jin's solo album. She said, "It was a song called 'Lover.' When I first got the offer, I thought, 'Why me?' But after listening to the song, it was totally my style. I was confident I could do well, so I said I would definitely participate." She added, "I also performed as a guest on senior Jin's solo concert stage."
Choi Yena explained that working with BTS made her realize, "World-class is different." She said, "It was morning, and they grilled thinly sliced pork belly for me, and I received ramen as a gift by the box. There were many other things too. The stage was huge, and the ARMY fans were the best." This experience left a great impression on Choi Yena, and her excited appearance on the show brought laughter to the viewers.
Also, on that day's broadcast, Choi Yena shared an episode from Waterbomb. She said, "I was invited to Waterbomb last year. It was my first time, so I was afraid of how much water I would get hit with." She continued, "So I called sister Kwon Eunbi. She gave me a lot of know-how. She said you must spray water on your outfit during fitting." Choi Yena prepared and went to Waterbomb but experienced a more intense situation than expected.
She recalled, "They even aimed water guns at my eyes. When I got excited and went closer to the audience, they deliberately sprayed more on my face. I thought, 'This won't do,' so I brought an umbrella to the next Waterbomb. After experiencing it, I gained some know-how," she laughed.
Kim Jihoon talked about his past experience of almost becoming a member of TVXQ on the show. He recalled, "I trained at SM. When I was a trainee, TVXQ and Super Junior debuted. Since my original dream was to be a singer, I auditioned and became a trainee, but there were so many talented people who sang well." Kim Jihoon added, "I thought, 'I can't be a singer.'" He said he seemed to have had the same thought at SM, and since SM was starting actor management at that time, he began acting.
The episode was filled with the cast's various experiences and humor, providing enjoyment to the viewers. Choi Yena's experience working with BTS and Kim Jihoon's story from his trainee days attracted much attention. The broadcast offered great laughter to the audience with the cast's honest stories.
