1. Former JYP Entertainment trainee Minyoung’s whereabouts
Minyoung is a former JYP Entertainment trainee who was supposed to debut as a member of 6MIX. However, 6MIX’s debut got canceled, and JYP Entertainment decided to create the show SIXTEEN, which is the show that formed TWICE.
In 2015, Minyoung was a participant in SIXTEEN but got eliminated in the final episode. After she participated in SIXTEEN, Minyoung seemingly disappeared from the public eye. That was until recently, as Minyoung opened up a YouTube channel and shared what she’s been up to.
After the program (SIXTEEN), I went through such a hard time, but now that I can smile and talk about it. There were so many chances for me to debut since I was in middle school, but those kept failing and failing, and that kept on repeating until my senior year.
But back then, I was already worn out by so many failed debuts, and it was a time that I couldn’t get myself together. But the company said that they were progressing with the survival program. I forced myself to participate in the program because I had no other choice. So in the program, I always looked depressed, unhappy…All the bad parts of me were shown in the program.
Even now, when I look at myself shown through the program, it makes me feel sad.

Minyoung also shared that after she got eliminated in SIXTEEN, she decided to take some time to rest and figure out what she wanted to do.
After the program ended, I almost gave up on music. I didn’t want to sing, didn’t want to do music anymore. So I stopped doing music for years… But at last, it came back to me again! Since I was in elementary and till my senior year, I always pursued this one certain goal of mine. But they all collapsed all at once, and so my mental collapsed too, so I needed to get myself back together too.
So while resting, I spent my time studying English; I took music lessons, and I tried many different kinds of jobs…and that kind of helped me to get through and overcome [everything].

However, it was difficult for them to reach out and find a female vocalist. The PD then asked Jimin to try singing the chorus, and Jimin did such an amazing job that they decided to use his voice!
So it went like, ‘You should try singing it, your voice could be even better,’ and we thought including a member’s voice would be nice.
