Insoo’s Pre-debut Story
Insoo, who graduated from Anyang Arts Highschool with major in theatre and film. He dreamed of being a singer since young and wanted to join Anyang Arts High’s theatre and film studies which many stars graduated from, but he was eliminated and had to major in his second choice of dance.
“I thought I would definitely get into theatre and film, but it didn’t turn out the way I thought. So I went for the auditions of my 2nd choice of dance and the teachers told me to wear tights. At that moment I thought to myself that I should just give up, but at that time, Ryang-Hyun Ryang-Ha sunbaenims came to take an exam and their father told me ‘If a man chose his knife, would he even be able to cut anything?’ and he told me to just go for the audition even if it’s only once. In the end, I didn’t put on tights, but went for the audition in sweat pants.”
“Even after I majored in dance, I told the teacher that I wanted to be a singer and didn’t dance for 2 years. After lesson ends, my friends went to the practice room to dance while I went to the practical music school and took vocal and instrument lessons. Even outside school, I never told anyone I was a dance major and I lied to my parents a lot that I went for dance practice. At that time, my teacher was really angry at me.”
Insoo opened his eyes to ballet a year before he graduated high school and continued to dance with joy through college. But it’s hard for a male dancer to survive in the country. Insoo hadn’t even served his time in the military and he couldn’t guarantee his future and wanted to do ballet more than anything, but he realized his predicament.
“If I don’t dance continuously, my body will stiffen and you can’t save the feel and sense of dance. If I went to the military, I can return to it but I have no confidence of doing well. So I found my old dream of becoming a singer and took part in ‘Superstar K’. I went for the auditions and made it through to Super Week with much luck. I believe that these processes helped me debut with the name MYNAME and that it was a chance for me to learn.”
Insoo said it was a chance for him to learn from the many difficulties he faced up till MYNAME’s debut. They were lessons with goals and dreams. It’s the reason Insoo can enjoy this exhaustion.
