During the interview, Bada mentioned Rain’s height because he is known for being tall. According to his Namuwiki profile, he is 185 cm, or 6 ft tall. She asked him if he, too, had to put in twice the effort because of his tall height.

In response, Rain empathized and agreed that it was hard for him to be quick while dancing because of his height.

If you’re tall, it’s so hard to dance or be quick.

Rain also shared a specific incident during an audition, where he was criticized and even discouraged from pursuing his dream because of his height.

When I waas doing an audition, there was this incident where someone said, ‘Hey, why are you so tall? Your size doesn’t suit television, so just join a group or something.’ So I did form a group and it failed.

Rain and Bada’s discussion about their shared trait continued as Bada confessed that she was scolded while dancing in the past because of her height.

I was scolded a lot when I was young. I looked very stiff, and when I was already doing the ‘down’ move, but they told me to do the ‘down’ move… Telling me bend more.
