RIIZE's Wonbin revealed that he wanted to give up his idol debut after seeing Sonchan and Unsok when he was a trainee, and attracted attention.

Next, she talked about Wonbin, saying, "Wonbin wore a hat and looked stylish. I thought, 'Is he a rapper?' He always wore a hat, so I couldn't see his face, but when we took profile pictures, I saw him for the first time. He really looked like a prince." Wonbin, who was listening to this, confessed, "I remember it clearly. When I first went to the agency, I immediately called my mom and dad and said, 'I might not be able to do this.' I was shocked. I had never seen such a handsome person before." When Sohee asked, "Who are you talking about?" Wonbin replied, "Sonchan and Unsok. I thought I was no good after seeing such handsome and tall people who were so good at dancing for the first time." Also, Sohee said, "When I first entered the agency, I lost my fighting spirit when I saw the other trainees." and looked back, saying, "There was such a time."

At first, he wasn't interested, but he was approached many times in front of the school, at the station, and on the streets of Cheongdam-dong, and finally accepted the offer. After that, he gained attention as an SMROOKIES and debuted as RIIZE after five years of trainee life. Sonchan was also skeptical about entering the entertainment industry, but changed his mind after receiving a street scout for the second time. After that, he improved his skills while attending a dance school and finally passed the SM Entertainment audition in his third year of middle school. Wonbin was scouted by DM on SNS and joined SM Entertainment. In connection with this, Wonbin looked back on the time, saying, "I was scouted by DM while lying on the bed." and "I didn't want to go to school, so I thought I'd go once, thinking I was being tricked." ・ RIIZE appears as the first guest on the April 5th broadcast of TV Asahi's "M:ZINE"!
