Kim Yongbin rejected SM Lee Soo-man's proposal for SHINee, 7-year hiatus due to panic disorder



Mr. Trot 3'Winner Kim Yong-bin confessed to the past when he almost debuted as an idol.

On KBS2 'The boss's ears are donkey ears (hereinafter referred to as 'Sadang ears')', which aired on the 1st, Kim Yong-bin, Jin Sun-mi, Son Bin-ah, Chun Rok-dam (Lee Jung), who played an active role in TV CHOSUN 'Mr. Trot 3', appeared.

Kim Yong-bin said, "I'm realizing the change in popularity after winning the audition." The number of fan cafe members has increased 20 times compared to the previous one, and the cost of the event has jumped dozens of times. He also filmed a cosmetic commercial, proving that he was in the ranks of 'trending'.




Kim Yong-bin said that his aunt, who raised him after he became a "Jin", was most pleased. The grandmother, who wished to appear on "Mr. Trot 3" more than anyone else, passed away in June last year. Kim Yong-bin said, `My grandmother wants me to go out on 'Mr. Trot 3' and work hard. 'I will definitely help you even if I'm not dead.' That's why I'm out." At the audition, Kim Yong-bin proudly entered the camp, and the 300 million won prize money he received was used to pay off debts incurred during his long life of obscurity.

Kim Yong-bin said he has been on stage since he was seven years old. He said "SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as SM) teacher Lee Soo-man will make SHINee." I went and said I couldn't do it." In response, MCs were surprised by 'There is an idol face'SM Award'

"When I was young, I had a lot of schedules, but when I tried to make a comeback, I felt too much pressure to do well," Kim Yong-bin said. So I got panic disorder and I haven't done anything for nearly seven years. It wasn't a time of nonsense for me. Without that time, there would have been no resentment in the song."




Kim Yong-bin was born in 1992 and became famous for being a trot prodigy. After a long hiatus due to panic disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, he succeeded in making a comeback by finishing fifth in the 2020 'Trot National Sports Festival'. Afterwards, he won first place in 'Mr. Trot3' and revived nicely.
