TXT’s Soobin Admits Lying About BTS During His Rookie Days

TXT's Soobin Admits That He Lied About BTS In His Rookie Days

TXT’s Soobin just revealed the surprising real reason he joined BigHit Music. It wasn’t just because of BTS like many thought. Instead, Soobin’s motivation came from none other than KARA’s Seungyeon.

Soobin shared that Seungyeon once said BTS’s Jimin was a junior artist who caught her attention. Hearing this, Soobin thought if he debuted as BTS’s junior, Seungyeon might notice him too.

The controversy began when Soobin admitted he had lied about BTS being his inspiration during his rookie days. He explained the truth behind his audition was a bit different.

When I was a rookie, I went around saying that BTS was so cool and joined Bighit Music because of them. Everyone knows by now that that’s pretty much just a comment for show, right? To be honest, I’m a fan of KARA, and Seungyeon said that BTS’ Jimin was the junior that caught her attention recently. After seeing that, I thought that if I debuted as his junior, Seungyeon would pay attention to me. So I auditioned with the immature thought that I wanted to be noticed by her.

Soobin has been a huge KARA fan for years. Before debut, he even attended KARA fan meetups and has openly expressed his love for the group since debut. Looks like his dream came true — KARA definitely knows about his fanboy feelings.

Fans quickly reacted to Soobin’s honest confession, appreciating his candidness and longtime admiration for KARA.
