ENHYPEN's Sunghoon revealed how he debuted as an idol after a successful figure skating career.

On the latest episode of DIVE Studios' YouTube interview show 'K-Pop Daebak with Eric Nam', Eric Nam asked Sunghoon about the transition from figure skater to idol star. The ENHYPEN member revealed he was scouted by Big Hit Entertainment (now known as HYBE), but he had no intention to join a boy group.

Sunghoon explained, "I joined the dance group, thinking it would help me with my figure skating. I joined, but I didn't really have any intention to become an artist." He added that it was BTS who inspired him, saying, "It was motivating to watch BTS and other trainees training so hard. I got friendly with them, and that's when I started to want to be an idol."

Sunghoon then trained for 2 years before appearing on Mnet's 'I-LAND'. He said, "Working on my figure skating was personal work for me. However, an idol group includes numerous people working together. Now I have people to depend on instead of doing it all alone."
