Lee Chae Yeon & AB6IX's Park Woo Jin reminisce about the time they were both 'let go' by JYP Entertainment at the same time

Former JYP Entertainment trainees reminisced about their young trainee days on 'Inssadong Sulzzi', a YouTube series hosted by Lee Chae Yeon. 

On this week's episode, AB6IX members Park Woo Jin and Kim Dong Hyun, who both spent years together at JYPE with Lee Chae Yeon, appeared as guests.

When asked to spill stories about their trainee days, Park Woo Jin said, "The time I remember the most was when we were both let go."

Bursting into laughter after hearing this, Lee Chae Yeon explained, "Originally, we were both supposed to be cut on the same day." When Park Woo Jin intervened here with, "That's not for certain," Lee Chae Yeon said, "No, they really did mean to tell you that day." Park Woo Jin then responded, "Oh, really? I didn't know that." 

Lee Chae Yeon went on, "But it ended up that I got cut first. So all of the trainees were in an uproar, crying and comforting me. Woo Jin also comforted me that day."

Park Woo Jin joined in the recollection with, "Two people left that day. Lee Dae Hwi and Lee Chae Yeon. But Chae Yeon was the most talented among the trainees at the time, and everyone pretty much considered Dae Hwi already an employee there. So when we all heard that they were being cut, everyone was shocked. I was thinking, 'How could this happen?', on the stairs, and then the lesson schedule for the next day was posted. I pulled it up, and I saw that my name was not listed in the rap lesson."

While both Lee Chae Yeon and Kim Dong Hyun laughed, Park Woo Jin continued, "So I sent the supervisor a message, asking, 'Do I not have lessons tomorrow?'. And then they replied... 'Woo Jin, are you still here?'"

Park Woo Jin remarked bitterly, "That day, I told them jokingly, 'I might be right behind you two,', but then I was really called up the next day. That is how we got cut around the same time. But in the end, I was more hurt and more lonely."
