Her visual card never declined.
Hearts2Hearts’ Yuha has been turning heads as one of the most beautiful rookies on the scene, but it turns out her star quality was spotted long before her debut. In a recent interview with Girls’ Generation‘s Hyoyeon, Yuha revealed that she was street-casted by SM Entertainment not once, but three times.
The first time happened when she was just in fourth grade. While leaving school, a casting agent from SM Entertainment approached her near the school gates. Even as a child, her visuals were striking enough to draw professional attention.
The second casting came a few years later, during middle school — ironically, after she had already joined SM Entertainment as a trainee. She explained that while she was out and about, a different scout from the company approached her again, not realizing she was under them.
The third time was in high school, following a routine visit to the dentist.
When Hyoyeon joked that the SM Entertainment staff seemed like they didn’t communicate with each other regarding castings and trainees, Yuha warmly admitted that the staff belatedly recognized her after she brought it up. Yuha eventually made her debut in Hearts2Hearts in 2025.
