Actress Kim Ji-won recalled her days as a trainee preparing for an idol debut in the past.

On the 29th, actress Kim Ji-won and Lee Jeong-eun appeared as guests on the web variety show "Salon Drift 2" on the YouTube channel "TEO TEO," where they shared various stories.

During a conversation about dance that day, Kim Ji-won revealed that she had briefly prepared for an idol debut in her childhood and learned to dance. However, it did not lead to an actual debut.

Looking back on the time, Kim Ji-won laughed and said, "There is a reason I couldn’t debut." When asked what part was disappointing, she calmly answered that it seemed to be not just an issue with dance alone, but a general lack of readiness overall.

An anecdote from her trainee days was also revealed. Jang Do-yeon brought up the story that at the time, when things didn’t go as she wanted, Kim Ji-won had said, "Beyoncé can do it, so why can’t I?" Kim Ji-won smiled awkwardly.

Although her idol debut fell through, Kim Ji-won’s love for music continues to this day. Lee Jeong-eun, who appeared with her, shared that Kim Ji-won often hums songs on set.

In response, Kim Ji-won explained that she lifts the mood with singing when she gets tired during shoots that require a lot of physical stamina, noting that it is a sign that she is very exhausted when she starts singing. She added that she also enjoys listening to and singing popular K-pop songs these days.
