Taeyeon talks about getting into SM and her fear of cameras on 'Sketchbook'

Girls' Generation's talented vocalist and solo artist Taeyeon appeared on 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook' on February 19!

On this day, she was asked how she came to be a singer and responded, "I personally auditioned for SM Entertainment.  It was an audition through the best youths selection contest, and there, I was chosen for best singing.  I was in second grade at the time. When I first prepared to be a singer, I had no idea that I would be in a girl group like Girls' Generation.  I was only of the thought that first I should get into an agency."

She also asked about her last dream as a singer and she relayed that it was to continue singing in a healthy state so that it was not hard for her even she was ill or grew old. Taeyeon also talked about appearing alone on the music program, relaying, "Because everyone is looking only at me, I am extremely nervous and feel burdened.  I have a fear of the camera.  I can't think of anything to say when there's a camera.  For this album, I had no chance to promote [on air], but because it was 'Sketchbook,' I wanted to come out.  I felt like if it were 'Sketchbook,' a lot of people would focus and listen to my song."

She added with aegyo, "I wanted to see Hee Yeol oppa," so the MC hilariously replied, "If you're a woman, you definitely would want to," making everyone laugh.  Oh, Yoo Hee Yeol, never change.
