A girl with 11 million views cast on the spot at Psy’s ‘흠뻑쇼’…Turns out, she was an ‘idol hopeful’

[Sports Chosun, Reporter Jo Yoon-seon] It has been revealed that the schoolgirl who received an on-the-spot casting offer at Psy's 'Summer Swag' is an aspiring idol.

The concert现场 video, released on Instagram on the 26th, recorded more than 11 million views in just one day and quickly spread across various online communities.

In the released video, the schoolgirl continued dancing while naturally enjoying the music, showing no sign of embarrassment or nervousness even in front of tens of thousands of spectators. Her confident expression and relaxed manner, fully enjoying the stage, immediately caught the attention of the audience on site and eventually led to an on-the-spot casting offer from Psy and a representative of P NATION.

Netizens who saw the video reacted by saying, "She already looks like a celebrity," "She has something special," and "She is made for the stage," showing great interest in the student's identity.

The person at the center of the buzz was confirmed to be trainee Kim Ra-hee, who is currently receiving systematic training with the goal of debuting as an idol. She has been steadily preparing not only vocals and dance, but also stage expression and performance skills, and a representative explained that the natural energy she showed at this Summer Swag event was not created overnight but was the result of years of training.

Gu Min-seok, director at BNB IDOL LAB, an idol-specialized training institution, said, "Ra-hee herself is still very surprised because it was something she never expected," adding, "She was always a friend who sincerely enjoyed the stage, but the fact that she did not shrink even in front of a huge crowd and fully showed her own energy seems to have led to such a positive result."

He continued, "Above all, this incident has prompted the student herself to strengthen her determination to move toward her dream with even greater responsibility," and added, "We hope you will continue to watch her grow with warm eyes."

Kim Ra-hee, who quietly sharpened her skills for what seemed like a once-in-a-lifetime moment, is currently drawing attention from various entertainment industry figures, and interest continues in what kind of stage she will appear on next to show her potential.
