Without any of these participants, it is difficult to imagine these bands. Several other artists have made improvements in their professions, while they were trainees, such as moving agencies.

There are several artists in their chosen party who have almost made no debut, here are five of all of these idols.

BTS MEMBER J-HOPE

Although J-Hope may be recognized as the mood builder for BTS, he initially left Big Hit Entertainment as a trainee.

J-Hope recalled the time when he narrated what happened at that moment, "I remember how Jungkook cried when I decided to leave, and hugged Jungkook and cried together."

He's just agreed to come back because of other bandmates whom he considers his friends and brothers. The participants of the BTS also confess they don't know what would have happened if J-Hope didn't return because they are so dependent on him. 

To which J-Hope added, "I came back because I trusted you guys. We worked together for a long time." 

TWICE MEMBERS TZUYU AND MOMO

The survival program SIXTEEN created TWICE. Initially, TWICE was supposed to be a party of seven participants, but Park Jin Young wanted to add two additional members. 

"But the seven members will stay, but to complete TWICE, I want to add two more members."

Because of its tremendous prominence, Tzuyu has been added to the band.

"Tzuyu has been chosen by the viewers! Congratulations." 

Park Jin Young thought TWICE wanted somebody to assist with their appearances, so they recruited Momo to the group.

"The member who will show amazing dancing and performance is MOMO!"

STRAY KIDS MEMBERS FELIX AND LEE KNOW

Stray Kids were another category that has to go through a pre-debut elimination series. Throughout most of the series, Park Jin Young removed both Lee Know and Felix. 

Park Jin Young said, "This time, you won't be able to continue together with the band." 

Park Jin Young granted the two one last chance to prove themselves. Park Jin Young thought that Stray Kids might have the most enthusiasm and motivation together through the show, so he'd brought Felix and Lee Know back to the roster.

"Congratulations, STRAY KIDS will be nine members." 

RED VELVET MEMBER SEULGI

Seulgi had been a trainee for about seven years, and throughout her term as a trainee, she fell into several difficulties. Seulgi also questioned leaving once, as she feared her singing didn't change at all. Luckily, Seulgi's mother helped her overcome this downturn.

"After 3-4 years of trainee life. I started questioning if I was doing the right thing, and If I was even improving, I think my fourth and fifth year of trainee life was the most difficult." 

SUPER JUNIOR MEMBER HEECHUL

As a trainee, Heechul was very stubborn, having even been thrown out of SM Entertainment once. Heechul was formerly criticized for the kind of music he'd listened to.

"I told her about the singer and the song album, and she scolded me for listening to that song!" 

Heechul then responded to his instructor with a defiant response.

"I said, 'You don't study rock music?"

Heechul has taken things a step further, as he has not yet issued an apology for his behavior to his teacher.

"She said I should write a letter of apology, and I did but wrote 'I did nothing wrong, but I'll write this. Then she said, 'How dare you speak rudely to me?"

Such behavior finally got him thrown out of the agency.

His trainer said, "You're hopeless. You would cause trouble when you become a celebrity. I can't let you ruin the band's atmosphere. You should go back to Gangwon Province," to which he answered directly, "I'll be happy to visit my hometown!" 

EX-WANNA ONE MEMBER KANG DANIEL

Although WANNA ONE could be disbanded, the center nearly made no group premiere. WANNA ONE was established through season 2 of Produce 101. After some of the initial tests, Kang Daniel once announced he had almost chosen to leave Produce 101 Season 2.
