Not all K-pop singers decided that they wanted to become one since young, and they did not picture themselves to become a singer in their lifetime.
These five K-pop singers are the living proof; they were scouted by management agencies to make their debut after accompanying their friends or family members to an audition.
1. V of BTS

At the time, the casting manager of Big Hit Entertainment suggested V to go for an audition.
V called his father to ask for permission, and he was the only one who had passed the Daegu audition.
2. Suzy

But the friend did not have any passion for debuting as an actor or singer, so he suggested Bae Jin Young to audition instead.
