Aespa’s Winter Surprises Lee Mujin With Stories Of Her Intense Audition Process
aespa‘s Winter was recently a guest on Lee Mujin‘s musical variety program, Lee Mujin’s Service, during which she performed aespa’s “I’m Unhappy,” Baek Yerin‘s “London,” Tori Kelly‘s “Confetti,” and a duet cover of J.Y. Park featuring Sunye‘s “Farewell Under The Sun.”
Between showcasing her impressive vocal talents, Winter opened up to fans about how she began her career at SM Entertainment.
Winter shared that SM Entertainment unexpectedly cast her at a dance competition, which surprised Lee Mujin.
After being cast, Winter decided she would pursue SM Entertainment’s interest in her, and she went for an audition.
Winter broke down the surprisingly intense audition process for MYs, which included camera tests and singing “tens of” songs.
The talented aespa member revealed that the process took a long time, and a practice room was set aside for her for 3-4 hours.
During that time, SM Entertainment’s team asked aespa’s Winter about the songs she knew and requested numerous songs for her to sing.
While Lee Mujin may have been surprised by Winter’s audition process, MYs shared that they hilariously understood why SM Entertainment would want to hear Winter sing for hours.
winter’s audition lasting 3 to 4 hours is all because she was blowing everyone away with her voice and they wanted her to keep singing it’s true i was there

They didn't do an audition. They did a solo concert at the audition. https://t.co/OO7HRbuu7e

I love Winter's audition story. Even though she was cast for dancing, they just kept on making her sing a bunch of songs for 2 to 3 hours 😭😂 Oh I know they found a gem of a voice.

what happened is Winter was scouted at a local dance show and SM was impressed so they had her audition only to find out she was an amazing singer. They LOVED her voice so much hence why she sang for so long because they couldn’t believe the singing talent they had just found
