Actor-singer Lee Elijah confessed that he received numerous street casting offers during his school days.
The MBC entertainment program "Omniscient Interfere Point of View," which aired on the 4th, revealed the daily life of Ieliya, who is busy as a graduate student beyond actors and singers.
On this day, Ieliya said, "I started singing when I was a third grader in elementary school, and I did it until high school, and then I got vocal cord nodules. Through "Miss Trot 4," I tried again. My mother likes trot, so I decided to appear," he explained.
When asked by Yang Se-hyung, "Have you ever been offered a casting offer when you were young?" he said, "I don't really talk about it, but I got a lot of street casting when I was in high school. I also received my business card from SM, and I also had a meeting with Big Hit CEO Bang Si-hyuk in person," he confessed, causing a stir in the scene.

As for the reason why he did not challenge himself to become an idol at the time, he replied, "My parents told me to go to college first, but once I got out of it, it was hard to go back."
On the other hand, Lee Elijah surprised everyone by saying that he entered the acting department of Seoul National University of Arts. When alumni Song Eun-i and Lee Young-ja showed their joy, Ieliya said, "The seniors already know. It was nice to meet Park Seo-joon, a student in '07, who I went with, in my work," he said, drawing attention.
