Jungkook (BTS) revealed that he was favored by Big Hit and was recruited directly without audition?

In a recent interview, casting director Noh Min-mi revealed the behind-the-scenes story of how she recruited Jungkook (BTS). She said that the male idol received special favor from Big Hit , even being recruited directly without having to go through an audition.

Jungkook's (BTS) journey to becoming a global superstar has always been an inspiring story. Millions of fans believe that it is a combination of innate talent, extraordinary effort, and a little luck. But recently, a shocking revelation from the former casting director of Big Hit Entertainment has lifted the veil on the secret of Jungkook's process of joining the company, surprising many people. According to the share, BTS's youngest member received a special "favor", a rare privilege that any trainee dreams of.

Specifically, Ms. Noh Min-mi, a former casting director of Big Hit, revealed that Jungkook was the first trainee she personally recruited. Her role at that time was to "find rough gems and turn them into diamonds". She recounted her fateful encounter with Jungkook on the Superstar K show years ago. She recalled: "There were many casting directors at the scene. A boy caught my eye. His eyes were bright, he looked so cute, and I felt like he was shining. I was drawn to him like it was fate".

Determination to 'not lose' and the fierce race to win

In an unusual and unprecedented move, Noh Min-mi gave the young man her business card right away, bypassing the usual audition process. She said she was determined not to lose Jungkook. After consulting with Big Hit, she quickly contacted Jungkook's father and proposed a contract directly. Normally, agencies would set an audition date, but with Jungkook, she told his father directly: "Sign him now - he has potential."

This revelation shocked the entire entertainment industry. It not only showed Mrs. Noh's absolute trust in Jungkook's talent, but also proved that he was a potential star since he was a young boy. Mrs. Noh also added that many other companies had pursued him, some even waiting at Seoul Station to recruit him, but in the end, Jungkook's father chose Big Hit, a choice that was probably destined by fate.

Blind faith and the ultimate effort

Looking back on the decision, Noh Min-mi describes it as fate: "It was almost like a spell. I couldn't let him go. Signing Jungkook without an audition still feels strange." This story reinforces the idea that Jungkook's rise to stardom was not just about talent and hard work, but also a stroke of fate.

However, BTS's success did not come from luck alone. Ms. Noh Min-mi also talked about the boys' extraordinary efforts: "Back then, no one paid attention to them, but I believed that they would succeed. They practiced until their shoes were worn out. That's why I was sure they would succeed." This is proof that despite being "favored" especially, it is perseverance, persistence and constant dedication that are the decisive factors that brought BTS to the pinnacle of glory.

Mentorship and Pride

Today, as BTS continues to shine on the global stage, Noh Min-mi expressed her pride: "Even when I meet them now, they are still like the kids they were when they were trainees. Even though they are global stars, when we chat and laugh, I sometimes forget how famous they really are."

The honest story shared by Noh Min-mi touched the hearts of fans, not only because it revealed an interesting secret about Jungkook but also because it showed the affection and respect between the artist and those who contributed to their success. Despite being world-class stars, BTS still maintains their modesty and sincerity, which makes them even more special in the hearts of fans.
