When LE SSERAFIM debuted in 2022, they quickly became one of the hottest girl groups in the industry.
Yet, despite many of the members’ previous experiences, it wasn’t an easy path for the idols, and it was shown through a documentary. In particular, along with the members’ experience, the documentary showed a mystery trainee dancing with them.

Yet, it seems like Haruka didn’t give up and is ready to fight for a chance to debut. It was recently announced that HYBE and JTBC‘s newest show would be aired to find members for BE:LIFT LAB‘s newest girl group through R U Next?
In the images, Haruka has changed her name and now goes under the stage name “Ruka” but her charm and visuals were unmissable.
Along with the image profiles, each contestant released a video talking about themselves. Surprisingly, Ruka directly addressed her time with LE SSERAFIM and how just missing out on debuting with the group impacted her future.

Many even pointed to the similarities with ENHYPEN‘s Heeseung.
The idol initially trained alongside TXT and was thought to debut with them until he was cut and eventually debuted with ENHYPEN after going through the survival show I-Land.
