On April 4 episode of JTBC's television show 'Knowing Brothers', WOOYOUNG made a guest appearance.

WOOYOUNG said, "When I was in middle school, I believed picking the right management agency was an important thing, because I didn't want to burden my parents in any way."
He continued, "Once, I got into this small management agency. They asked for money after I passed their audition. After that, I thought to myself, 'I'm only going to try JYP Entertainment from now on.' Getting into JYP Entertainment has always been my dream, so..."

WOOYOUNG said, "I wasn't a girl, but was super desperate to get into JYP Entertainment. When I got there, there were a bunch of girls lining up."
He went on, "But there were a few boys between them. I was able to gain courage after seeing them, so I decided to just go for it. I waited for like the whole day to audition, but I failed in the end."
He added, "I got into JYP Entertainment through another audition afterwards. It felt so unreal when I received a call from JYP Entertainment saying that they wanted to sign a contract with me. It also felt weird that everything that I had ever hoped for was done over a single phone call."
