T-ara's Dani's extraordinary casting experience was revealed.
T-ara's 9th member is a 14-year old girl who grew up in the United States. Despite begin young, she has a slender appearance and boasts a height of 167cm and is reminiscent of the actress Olivia Hussey. After being revealed on the 30th, she has received a tremendous amount of interest from netizens.
Core Contents Media revealed, "CEO Kim Kwangsoo scouted Dani himself after seeing her on the streets. For the first time ever in his 30 years of being in the entertainment business has Kim Kwangsoo ever made a random cast of someone on the streets."
Dani was on a trip to South Korea during vacation to meet her parents, and happened to be stopped by and cast as a trainee on the streets. As soon as Kim Kwangsoo saw Dani, he cast her immediately. Kim Kwangsoo was stopped at a traffic light in his car and saw Dani. After he couldn't get her image out of his mind, he drove back 200m to find her.
Over ten years ago, most entertainment industry stars were actually cast on the streets. Nowadays, most casting is done through auditioning at a large company. Finding a star on the streets is not an easy thing to do, but Dani was a lucky one and is now preparing to debut with T-ara.
T-ara's CEO Kim Kwangsoo is said to have the Midas touch of the entertainment industry. When he first met Dani, he discovered that she attended dance lessons. He had no idea if she could sing or act, but declares that he found an "unrefined jewel."
Dani said recently, "In order to make sure I don't hurt T-ara's popularity or image, I'm practicing more before I join my unnies." Dani will join in December, but first she'll act in T-ara's new music video this July.
