Actor Na In Woo Dishes On His Time As JYP Trainee Alongside GOT7, TWICE, And More

Popular actor Na In Woo recently guested on KBS Cool FM Kang Hanna’s Volume Up where he shared his experience in becoming a K-Pop idol!

Before his successful career as an actor, Na In Woo mentioned his time as a trainee for JYP Entertainment.

When I was a trainee, I trained with GOT7’s Jinyoung and Jaebum (JAY B), and TWICE’s Jeongyeon and B.A.P’s Youngjae was also there. There are so many singers that I trained alongside.

Though he trained hard, Na In Woo stated he started to feel a change in passion at 19 years old.

I believe it was when I was 19 years old before my winter break. When I left the company, I thought, ‘Is this not the right path for me?’ When I was younger, I had the strong impression that ‘If I do whatever people tell me to do, things will work out.’ But at that time, I thought, ‘I’m going to be an adult soon, and shouldn’t I at least have a dream?

Na In Woo continued and shared that because of his determination and focused mindset, he was able to reach his dreams.

Because I didn’t lose sight of what I invisioned when I was younger, and also because I put my life on the line to accomplish it, that I ended up where I am today.

While he’s an amazing actor, DJ Kang Han Na also brought up the fact that he’s also good at singing, and playing instruments. Because he’s musically talented, Kang Han Na asked whether he wants to make an album or not.

You’re good at playing instruments, good at singing, and good at acting. Don’t you want to release an album?

— Na In Woo

Excitedly enough, Na In Woo revealed he would be down to make an album if the opportunity came along.

If the opportunity ever comes toward my direction, I’d be up for it whenever.
