Former JYP trainee Song Min Young’s update revealed through KwakTube.

Former JYP Entertainment trainee Song Min Young, who appeared on Mnet’s survival show ‘Sixteen’ in 2015, recently shared an update on her life through KwakTube’s YouTube channel.

In a newly uploaded video titled “waking up as a 34-year-old student back in school - Japan,” Kwak Tube documented his experience attending a language school in Hokkaido while doing a homestay with a Japanese family to improve his language skills.

At the school, Kwak Tube was introduced to other Korean students, including Song Min Young, surprising viewers. ‘Sixteen’, the survival show that led to the formation of TWICE, had showcased Song Min Young’s impressive vocal skills, earning her significant recognition at the time.

Upon realizing her identity, KwakTube reacted with excitement, saying, “you were on ‘Sixteen’? I can’t believe I’m meeting a former JYP trainee. It’s an honor.”

In response, Song Min Young playfully dismissed the show, saying, “it’s not fun. Don’t watch it.” When KwakTube asked if watching it would be painful, she simply replied, “yes.”

KwakTube also asked if she had been part of TWICE’s final lineup, to which Song Min Young revealed, “I was originally in the group. I was in my senior year of high school at the time,” evoking sympathy from viewers.
