ITZY Yeji’s Pre Debut

Yeji was born and raised in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea, on May 26, 2000. In her family, she is the youngest child. She has an older sister who was born in 1998. Their family also raised two dogs. As a child, Yeji once had a life-and-death experience where she caught a cold where her condition became very poor. It was said that Yeji had a complication such as pneumonia and osteomyelitis. She was hospitalized for quite a long time. But thankfully, little Yeji recovered, and she can go back to normal. Thank goodness that Yeji survived that experience. If she weren’t, she wouldn’t be one of the best trainees in JYP Entertainment. Because in January 2016, or she was 16 in International age (or 17 years old in Korean age), Yeji got accepted as a JYP Entertainment trainee, and she already became the elite trainee at that time. Even Junho from 2PM said that she was the gem that JYP Entertainment has been hiding. Yeji once appeared in the “Stray Kids” reality show in 2017. The show was about a survival program of JYP Entertainment’s trainees that would form the new K-pop group in their company. First, the girls’ trainees had to have a battle with the boys’ trainees. At that time, Yeji and other girls were competing against the “Stray Kids” group. Unfortunately, Yeji and other girls lost, and they had to wait for other years to make a debut. Even at that time, Yeji has shown an awe-inspiring skill of dancing. Some Stray Kids members claimed that they were afraid of Yeji’s charisma because it was too strong to compete. Here is the clip of the female trainees (including Yeji) on “Stray Kids”!

Yeji was so cute back then, and her performance was excellent!
