K Crew Audition Release Form Name: Fill & Download for Free

AHHHHHH, this is one thing that I would not like to think about….But this would be interesting to answer.JIN -(b. 김석진 Kim Seok Jin on December 4, 1992)Jin was scouted by an SM Entertainment Scout but ran away because he thought it was a scam. The thing is that many people have said different times that he was scouted but it ranges from age 13 - 19. Another theory is that he was an Ex-SM Trainee, but he left somewhere in 2010 or something ??? This is very complicated and different people say different things about it. But it is true that he was scouted but ran away.If he went to SM it is possible that he would have debuted in either SHINee or EXO (according to the time range of him being scouted which was probably 2006–2011).In 2011 or something, He was scouted by a Big Hit Entertainment in Konkuk University and ended up in BTS.If He did not take the path of Music, He probably would have ended up as a Businessman or and Actor.SUGA -(b. Mar 9, 1993, 민윤기 Min Yoon Gi)Suga started off being an Underground rapper. By Age 13, He was already writing lyrics. He worked part-time at a Recording Studio at age 17 and began Rapping, Producing, Writing and Performing. He began a part of an Underground Hip Hop Crew called “D-Town” in 2010.In 2010 he auditioned for Big Hit Entertainment and was the second member to join BTS after Leader, RM.If He did not end up in BTS, He probably would have not been in an idol group since he is currently not related to any other Entertainment companies. He would have either continued Underground Rapping and end up like Epik High or something. If he did not do Music, then he could have been a basketball Player, Treasury (In Bon Yogaye Season 1, he did an amazing job as a treasury) or idk.J-HOPE -(b. 정호석 Jung Ho Seok on Feb 18, 1994)He started off as a Dancer. He was a part of an Underground Dance Crew “Neuron” and took dancer Classes at Gwangju Music Academy. He was relatively known before debut, Having won numerous local dance competitions and first place in a national dance competition.It is said that he was an Ex-JYP Trainee and auditioned in February 2009. It is said that he was either Rejected or joined JYP. It is said that He Joined Big Hit Entertainment at the End of 2010.There is a theory saying that He was transferred from JYP to Big Hit because Bang PD wanted him in Big Hit or JYP felt like he was fit to be in Big HIt ???.This is consuming my last 2 brain cells.But If he did end up in JYP and debuted, He would probably debut in Got7 in 2014.RM -(b. 김남준 Kim Nam Joon on Sep 12, 1994)He started of Underground Rapping since age 14 under the stage name “Runch Randa”. He began writing and producing rapping and released multiple tracks. In Early 2010, He was scouted by Big Hit Auditon through Rapper, Sleepy.If He was not in Big hIt Audition he would either become a doctor or something (not doctor his clumsiness would kill his patients, no joke). He scored the top 1% in the university entrance exams for language, math, foreign language, and social studies and has an IQ of 148 (there is a video where he solved an IQ 170 question in 11 seconds).If He did not take the studies route, then he could have been a rapper or something.JIMIN -(b. 박지민 Park Ji Min on October 13, 1995)During Middle School, He began studying and doing contemporary Dance. In 2011 he entered Busan High School of Arts majoring in Dance and was a top student in the modern dance department.In 2012, He was suggested to audition through a school teacher and ended up in Big HIt Entertainment and transferred to Korean Arts High School.If He did not end up in Big Hit, He could have maybe ended up as a pro dancer (which he technically is now).V -(b. 김태형 Kim Tae Hyung on December 30, 1995)He has always wanted to be a singer. He auditioned for Big Hit somewhere in 2011. He then moved to Seoul and entered Korean Arts High School.If He did not pursue Music then … (This is a hard one). He would have just ended up as your average south Korean Male citizen.JUNGKOOK -(b. 전정국 Jeon Jung Kook on September 1, 1997)This one is going to take me a long long long time…He auditioned for Superstar K Season 3 in 2011. He was rejected by the judges but was offered a chance to become a trainee by 7 Entertainment Companies.JYP Entertainment - He could have ended up in GOT7 ??? with J-Hope ????FNC Entertainment - He could have ended up in SF9 ???Cube Entertainment - BtoB or Pentagon ???Woolim Entertainment - Golden Child ???Starship Entertainment - Monsta X ???TS Entertainment - This company is so horrible, I don’t even want to talk about itand Last and best of all, Big Hit Entertainment.I mean, seriously. If I were Jungkook and Big Hit Entertainment was in their 2011 state, I would have gone with JYP or something (Big Companies…). But After Jungkook met RM and watched him perform, He made a decision that he will never regret.If He did not take Music, then He could have been an Olympic Swimmer ???But BTS is something that we cannot live without (Food, Water, Phones, and Shelters as an exception).If BTS did not exist, then it would leave a Black hole in the music entertainment industry and in people’s lives.Some of these things are just theories so do not ask me for confirmation and things to back it up. Except for Jin getting scouted, J-Hope auditioning for JYP and Jungkook with the 7 agencies.Let’s end this with a picture.

Shinhwa & BAP.Shinhwa is the other name for brotherhood. They filed a lawsuit against SM together, rejected attractive individual contracts, fought a long legal battle of 12 years, set up their own company, waited for every single member to go and return from their military service, and kick started a new stage of their career. Shinhwa debuted in 1998. Their last comeback was in 2016 with their 13th album. They are the longest running kpop band with no change in the lineup for 19 years. What else is there to say?And well okay I don’t know BAP that well but yeah. Just from the fact that BAP filled the lawsuit as a group, stayed a group after it was resolved (?) speaks volumes to me.Other groups would be:Sechs Kies. They debuted in 1997, disbanded in 2000, stayed friends and collaborated with each other many times for the 16 years they were apart, regrouped in 2016 with 5 out of the 6 original lineup (Ko Jiyoung, who stayed out of the group’s comeback because he has fully left the entertainment industry and has his own business and family to attend to, has voiced up multiple times that he’s always Sechs Kies’ number 1 fan). I would also attribute their closeness to the fact that most of them were friends way before they formed the group. Eun Jiwon and Kang Sunghoon knew each other since 1995 when they were studying abroad in Hawaii. Kang Sunghoon and Ko Jiyoung were elementary schoolmates. Kim Jaeduk and Lee Jaejin grew up together in Busan and were in the same dance crew, they auditioned together for Sechs Kies. It’s their 20th anniversary this year.Super Junior. No one expected SJ to be close, because hey, 13 people is a lot. 2 members have officially left the group to pursue a different career. A few others are tangled up in issues so they’re on a permanent hiatus. SJ brands themselves as a group that’s only “for show”, but they’ve never acknowledged any number except 13, no matter in what sensitive situation. This group decided to not release any new albums in the 2 years their leader enlisted (to honour his contributions to the team because seriously Leeteuk singlehandedly raised half the members and held the team together through the shakiest debut days), a decision not understood by many. Majority of the member trained together for 3–5 years before their debut. “We acknowledge that each other are different” is why they last so long. Only 2 more members have yet to complete their military service. They started out as a project group that was meant to disband after one year of activity. This year marks their 12th anniversary.TVXQ/DBSK. Some wouldn’t agree because they’ve been apart for longer than they’re together, but I’d like to believe otherwise. Junsu took Yunho home when Yunho was sleeping on the streets. When Yoochun first came from US, his residence was registered under Junsu’s household. I would think TVXQ share a very special bond because of their Japanese debut struggles. In 2006, SM sent TVXQ, who were at their peak in Korea, off to a foreign market: Japan. Japan was NOT receptive of kpop at all. TVXQ was left there, stranded for months, handing out flyers and albums on the street begging people to give them a listen. Most of them ended up with depression. They climbed to the top in Japan together, and broke all kinds of records for foreign singers there. The lawsuit was painfully hard to believe. They had amazing teamwork as 5 and it really shone through their acapellas (I’ve never heard any magic like how their voices blend together).GOD. 4 of the original 5 lineup suffered immensely from their company’s neglect in their pre-debut days (their dorms had no hot water, and at some point there wasn’t even water because the pipe was frozen). They had no money and their only source of livelihood was their eldest (Joon Park)’s minor earning. They debuted in 1999, and by 2006 the members went in separate ways but with a promise that they will reunite. In 2014, they kept that promise with their 15th anniversary concert. They had a few comebacks after that, and in early 2017 they had a tour too. This is their 18th year, with the exact line-up.I’d say most 1st generation groups are really close. Most started from the bottom, and held each other tight as they rose to fame and were overworked by the company. Most groups went their separate ways because they wanted to pursue a different music career from the group’s, but that wasn’t allowed back then. Most 1st gen idols I’ve seen have kept in contact with each other over the years.Another kind would be idols who started from small companies and eventually made it big. Groups like Infinite and BTS. Not only are they close with each other, they also share a closer bond with their CEO/producer and company staff.

@Philip Lesniak first thing, sorry for replying your request this late. I’m happy that I’ve done my exam this week!So, to the intro. Shall we start with the leader?RM / KIM NAMJOONHis real name is Kim Namjoon. He is the main rapper and leader. He used the stage name Rap Monster before announced to change it to RM on 13th November 2017. He said that ‘RM’ could bring anything the fans want to think of, such as Real Me. He is born in Ilsan, South Korea on 12th September 1994 (now he’s 25 yrs old) and is the tallest member in BTS (over 181 cm!)Also, he’s been asked many times why he is the leader (usually in Korea, the oldest one usually is a leader). He answers, maybe because he’s the first member. FYI, BTS is formed in 2010, they’re supposed to debut in 2010 but the original members constantly leave the group when PD Bang Si Hyuk decided to make their debut as idol group until he’s the one who’s left in the original lineup. Before debut, he was active as underground rapper. There are some videos on Youtube that showed him do underground rapping. (Fire rap!)In 2015, he released his solo mixtape called ‘RM’. I can say that overall, this mixtape portrays RM who often struggles when he decided to change from an underground rapper to an idol. He’s been dissed many times by fellow rappers because they said, “Doesn’t idol often makeup like women?” , “Idol doesn’t do hiphop?”. All of these questions make him struggle to stay strong. In 23th October 2018 ; Korea time, he release his second mixtape (eventhough he called it as a playlist), called Mono. Mono really made an incredible achievement. On 29th October, his mixtape jumped up to the spot 29 on Billboard 200, the highest charting Korean-act in Billboard 200. It almost same as Love Yourself : Tear and Love Yourself : Answer. Among all 7 tracks, I love MoonChild, Seoul and Forever Rain. Go check these out in Youtube! And a true fact, he participated in almost all BTS’s music as lyrician or producer. Last, he is a fluent English speaker but he just learned English through Friends (a program) by himself! He represents BTS to give a speech in Unicef last year.Enough with his AMAZING ACHIEVEMENT!Now, his personal life. RM is a genius! He has an IQ of 148. He was previously ranked in the top 1% of the nation in his high school exams. He speaks English fluently. RM’s TOEIC (The Test of English for International Communication) score was 900. Warghh, I envied him? *-*. Next, RM has nicknames. First,PinkMon. What? Yes, pink is one of his favourite colour! He often wear pink clothes. Just look at his Go Go performance on Music Bank. Then, he is the ‘God of Destruction’. Hmm, I think he’s proud with it? When he go on interviews, the most talked- example is spectacles. Just touch it and it’ll break into two parts! Also, there’s a cam where he makes the seat fall when he jumped excitedly (BTS received an award).In BTS Comeback Show in 2018, he said that he really loves ddareung-ie. (is the spelling right?) It is the name of public bicycles in Seoul. He would like to cycle in a park or shopping during his free time. RM is also a best friend of Jackson from GOT7, they have been friends since their trainee days. Jackson also said that RM doesn’t change since the old days.JIN / KIM SEOKJINHis real name is Kim Seokjin and he uses the stage name Jin. He is the main visual and vocalist. He is born 4th December 1992 (now he’s 27 yrs old). He is born in Gyeonggi-do. Jin auditioned for BigHit when a staff of this company saw him and claimed that his looks suit to be an idol. During this time, Jin didn’t have any music background and was studying acting. If Jin is not an idol now, he probably is an actor now. In Wings album of 2016, he has a solo song “Awake” which then charted at six on the Billboard World Digital Singles Chart. Then, on August 9, 2018, the second solo by Kim, "Epiphany", was released as a trailer for BTS' then-upcoming compilation album Love Yourself : Answer. The song charted high at four on Billboard World Digital Singles Chart. For Hwarang : The Poet Warrior Youth, he collaborated with V for “It’s Definitely You” as the original soundtrack.As 27 yrs old person, he is the oldest in BTS. However, I think that his cute childish behaviour is more than others (except BabyChim Jimin)! Jin often uses the phrase ‘World Wide Handsome’ to describe himself. (It doesn’t cringe me, it actually fits him? ^-^) .His assets are his broad shoulders and thick lips. Come on! Broad shoulders give credit to the masculine man.. The thick lips, yes! This is the main reason why he always do the flying kiss. If in Korea, the love symbol by fingers is often used, but not for Jin. His flying kiss melts away our dizziness (too sweet? Haha!)Jungkook also mentioned his role as the cook. Well, Jin knows how to cook. And fortunately, he cooks really well. If you watch their daily life, Jin is the one who always hold the laddle, spatula, etc. Jungkook said without Jin, they maybe cannot eat deliciously. Jin is just like a mom to them.SUGA / MIN YOONGIHis real name is Min Yoongi and uses Suga as stage name. He is born on 9th March 1993 in Daegu. Suga is the lead rapper of BTS. The stage name Suga (슈가) is derived from the first syllables of the term shooting guard (in Korean language). His position is the lead rapper. Before debut, he uses “Gloss” as an underground rapper in a hiphop crew named D-Town in 2010. As the first three line up with RM and J-Hope, he trained as a trainee for three years. But I’ve heard that he was actually joining the company as music producer.For his music career, he released a free self-titled mixtape through SoundCloud on August 15, 2016. The mixtape describes his feeling of being trapped in some sort of framework. Next year; 2017, he composed song “Wine” for Suran, which then won best Soul/R&B track of the year at the MMA on 2nd December 2017. Suga also received the "Hot Trend Award” in 2017.Then, in 2018 he re-released the mixtape that charted at 3 in Billboard’s World Album Charts. His alias name, Agust D comes from Agust D (the bolded is the reversed word of Suga) and Agust D (t is town while D is Daegu, Daegu Town).What I love about Suga is his cool side. He has this looks where you will think that he is unapproachable but actually it’s not. He has the cutest smile ever! ^-^ ..He is the shortest member in BTS so it makes him really cute. He can be grumpy at times but don’t worry, he’s actually a cheerful one. How to see him in a grumpy mode? Just wake him up from his sleep…you’ll be cursed. Haha! I ship Suga and his pillow neck (as he mentioned in a video) “Introducing my lover, this pillow neck…” Suga even said that in his next life, he wanna be a rock. Well..a rock doesn’t have to move, just stay at where it is. His rap skill is undeniable. His speed? How many syllables in a second? Wargh, his mouth spits fire as he raps!!J-HOPE / JUNG HOSEOKHis real name is Jung Hoseok and his stage name is J-Hope. He said the reason why he chose J-Hope is he want to be a source of hope and light for fans ^-^~~ . He hold a position as the main dancer, rapper and sub-vocalist in BTS. He’s born on 18th February 1994 (same as RM) in Gwangju. But first, I’ll tell his history with BTS. J-Hope supposed to be in vocal line, however he gave up this title to V who wants to sing. But yes, now. He has this insane rap ability. And, he hold the main dancer title as he have great achievement in dancing, he was part of the underground dance team Neuron and took dance classes at Gwangju Music Academy. He also won various competitions, and what’s great..he won first place in national competition in 2008! A true talented dancer. He attended Global Cyber University, the university which Suga was in too.On 1st March 2018, he released his mixtape, Hope World. His mixtape debut at number 63 and subsequently reached its peak at 38. It made him the highest charting solo Korean artist on the Billboard 200 at the time of the mixtape's release (until RM’s Mono break his record in late of 2018). I think of Hope World as the fun and upbeat music and song that suits him VERYYYYY WELL!J-Hope told fans that he dislikes exercising and working out. Weird enough! Because his dance is more tiring and hard than normal exercise (search on youtube his powerfup dance). As the main dancer, J-Hope often do the choreography before teach it to other members. He knows what suit them better. Also, in BangtanTV, J-Hope is the member who is so diligent to record videos of BTS. Indeed, he’s in charge of BTS’s English time! Also, in BangtanTV again, there are always videos of the sleeping members. J-Hope loves to pinch their cheeks and the whole face? He’s a naught boy—+-+One more habit, he likes to show off his butt? I don’t know why but when he does that, it seems SOOOO cute rather than sexy? Anyway, J-Hope is known as the one who lights the mood (other members did too). He makes those weird sound like, “Ngeeee!!!” or “Hyaaaa!!”. Really a baby!JIMIN / PARK JIMINHis real name is Park Jimin and uses Jimin as stage name (lmao it’s his real name though). In BTS, he’s also the main dancer and lead vocalist. Born on October 13, 1995..he’s now 24 yrs old. Jimin is the last member to join BTS. In fact, Jimin studied contemporary dance at Busan High School of Arts and was a top student in the modern dance department. After a teacher suggested he audition with an entertainment company, it led him to BigHit Entertainment (this is a reason why he’s excel in dance). He has the shortest training time, which is within a year. Jimin didn’t do much in singing at past, but his effort surely brings what he is today. He slays the high note for BTS! In early if their debut, No More Dream brings the fans to the introduction if his abs! Daebak, his abs and tough body still makes him dance to the most graceful movement.Jimin has 3 solo tracks which are Lie, Serendipity and Promise. Lie is a song in Wings album of 2016 while Serendipity is the trailer for Love Yourself : Her. The songs were the only solo songs by a BTS member in Official Chart's 20 most streamed BTS songs in the UK. The song Promise topped Soundcloud records with 8.5 million streams in just the first 24 hours. Jimin’s performance of Promise was a trending search in Paris after the European stops of BTS' 2018 world tour, titled BTS World Tour: Love Yourself.Jimin has been so popular since debut. In 2018, Jimin was the ninth most tweeted about celebrity and the eighth most tweeted about musician in the world. He’s also achieved #1 on a survey of the most preferred idol by Gallup Korea in 2018. I think that he nailed it. In Burn The Stage, you can witness a scene where he said that he make mistakes although it is not too bad. The fact is he assumes himself as a perfectionist and the slighest mistake on the stage stresses him.Jimin’s often looked up as the BTS members with most duality (two different personality). He’s a really cute Mochi in real life. He laughes to Jin’s dad jokes and looks like he’ll die out from laughter? Haha! Also, he’s conscious with himself; saying that he’s fat. Hey, everybody say No! The plump cheeks make him a cutie. So, where’s the duality? It’s on the stage. Search in Youtube, there are plenty of Jimin’s sexy performances. I would give my vote to Blood Sweat and Tears, also Dionysus. He has a strong bond with V because they are the 95′ liners (born in 1995).V / KIM TAEHYUNGHis real name is Kim Taehyung and uses stage name of V. V is the lead dancer, vocalist and visual. He is born on December 30, 1995 in Daegu. He said that before debut, he was given names to choose and eventually picked up V. V is the hidden member of BTS before their debut. BigHit hid him and people only know him after their debut stage. Originally, V always want to be an idol. He just accompanied his friend to BigHit audition and luckily, he passed the audition in Daegu to be a trainee of BigHit Entertainment.In 2016, he has a solo single called The"Stigma" from the album Wings, which charted at 26 on the Gaon Music Chart and 10 on the Billboard World Digital Singles Chart. His second solo song is “Singularity” which is released as trailer for Love Yourself : Tear in May 2018. This song has calm yet sexy beat to it. To anyone who doesn’t listen to this yet, search it now! This song is well-received by critics and get listed in some amazing list. Overall, "Singularity"was mentioned on several year end Critics' Choice lists. Then, he has his third solo song, “Scenery”. Over the course of the two weeks, "Scenery" broke the daily streaming record nine times, setting the record at 11 million streams in one day in SoundCloud. He also make his debut in acting for drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth.Now, to the personal matters. Jin often achieved #1 or Top 3 in survey of looks. I can’t deny, the nickname “CGV” that the members gave to him is true. His visual is just like coming out straight from the computer. People said he has a habit of sticking out his tongue (tht actually killed many fans! Such a sexy gesture…). In December 2017, V got a new puppy, his name is Yeontan and it’s a black Pomeranian Teacup. Until now, there are sweet moments where he plays with Yeontan. Even Suga tried to steal Yeontan from him! Haha.. V is known to have a soft spot for children. There are videos of him playing with his younger cousin. He also speaks fluent Japanese and did try to play saxophone before. In early of BTS’s debut, he likes to play a lot. Over years, ARMY can see how much he has grow to be sexy man now.JUNGKOOK / JEON JUNGKOOKJeon Jungkook is his real name. Born on 1st September 1997 in Busan, he’s the maknae (youngest) of BTS. He is the main vocalist, lead dancer, center and sub-rapper. In middle school, he auditioned for Superstar K but failed to pass. He then received offers from 8 agencies. Knwo what? He said that he fell in love with RM’s rap so he decided to be a trainee in BigHit Entertainment.Under BTS, he has two solo tracks; the first is the pop track "Begin" from the 2016 album Wings, told his story of moving to Seoul at a young age to become an idol. In this song, he expresses thanks and gratefulness to hyungs that often take care of him. The second track, a future bass song titled “Euphoria”. It was as released with an accompanying nine-minute short film on 5th April 2018 as the introduction to the third part of BTS' "Love Yourself" series. “Euphoria” was produced by DJ Swivel and charted at number five on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. It charted for 13 weeks on the Gaon Digital Chart.In 2018, Jungkook placed first for 10 weeks in a row for magazine Hi China, under the most beloved celebrities list in China. Then in October 2018, Jungkook broke the record of most real-time viewers with his solo live broadcast in VLive history with more than 3.7 million viewers worldwide.Jungkook has many nicknames like JeonJungkookie (Suga called him), Golden Maknae, Kookie and Justin Seagull (he named himself!). As the maknae, he often imitate his hyungs. I’m still laughing when I remember his voice impression of other members! Suga said that he has a strong memory so he can imitate them well. Jungkook is such a medicine for them. In Fake Love, ARMY gone wild with his abs reveal. Jungkook said his interest in having abs came after seeing Taeyang and Jay Park. And..eventhough he’s the maknae, he often shows maturity than other older members. He has a composed style. In Idol Sports Championship, he made history. In the relay event, he managed to sprint and win for BTS. Just how many medals do BTS has in this relay? In his free time, he loves to do video-editing. He has his own studio, Golden Closet. In Comeback Show of BTS in 2018, he said that he don’t know that he looks that scary when editing (where Jungkook being so strict in putting the subtitles, “Yehm” or “Nehm” ; Korean pronounciation of ‘yes’). Yup, he has so many talents. Go to Youtube and watch his girl grouo dance. He danced to girl groups’ choreography well!CONCLUSIONNow I’ve mentioned all members. I hope that those who read will give support and no hate. I wrote this based on my own knowledge and some sources.https://kprofiles.com/bts-bangtan-boys-members-profile/English Wikipedia
