Seohyun's Predebut Video:
"The brutal and sweet interior of the showcase: Seohyun"
"Prior to the debut, the preparation of the showcase on September of last year was the hardest.
Its an event where the staff first sees and "rates" you. You're split into teams of 3/4 people, and put through a experimental stage.
It's extremely nervewracking because it is the moment when you can either be chosen to debut or be dropped.
Since 3 years ago, we went through this showcase with the CSJH and Super Junior members, and slowly they came to debut.
We were able to realize that we also had the potential to make it, after seeing CSJH and Super Junior, who we had trained with, become stars.
The first time I wore high heels was during the preparation of the showcase; and furthermore, we had to dance in them as well, so we put tape on the bottoms and practiced. Our feet were covered in blisters."
