'Radio Star' Nam Gyu-ri revealed she was a trainee at a major agency.
On the 6th episode of MBC variety show 'Radio Star' (hereinafter 'Ras'), Choi Daniel, Nam Gyu-ri, Ahn Ji-young, and Beom-gyu (TOMORROW X TOGETHER) appeared, and Nam Gyu-ri shared the behind-the-scenes story of S.E.S.'s debut.
That day Nam Gyu-ri, in response to a question that her joining gave S.E.S. a face, said, "I was a trainee at SM and YG but I couldn't debut as a singer," drawing attention.
Nam Gyu-ri recalled, "I turned 20 and was worried that if I couldn't be a singer at this age, what would I live on. I was the last trainee at Ryu Jae-hyun's company, and then my older brother called and said, 'Gyuri, do you want to go to the recording studio and sing one line?' so I went."
She continued, "The composer told me to sing just the two bars he was playing, so I sang, and he said, 'cry more,' 'with a thicker voice.' I sang while crying, and 40 days after debut we were number one," revealing S.E.S.'s debut song "The Scent of a Woman," which surprised people.
Kim Gu Ra said, "At the time they were famous as the female SG Wannabe," and Nam Gyu-ri said, "Originally S.E.S. planned to debut as singers without faces, but after I joined we decided to debut formally." Hearing this, Kim Gu Ra jokingly said, "She's naturally boasting about herself."
Nam Gyu-ri shared behind-the-scenes, "At the time the boss said the makeup done by a professional was really bad and told me not to wear makeup, so I did the first broadcast with no makeup."
