CHI CHI’s Ji-U, “I was almost a member of KARA but I have no regrets”

CHI CHI‘s Ji-U admitted that she almost debuted as a member of KARA, but she has no regrets.

Ji-U recently was a guest on MBC‘s ‘Weekly Idol‘ and revealed the incident of how she almost became a member KARA.

On this day, MC Jung Hyung Don asked Ji-U, “When you look at KARA right now, don’t you have any regrets?“. Ji-U then wittily answered, “I think it’s just my luck. it has a mind of its own” garnering laughter from the audience.

During her middle school years, Ji-U attended the same dance academy as 2NE1‘s CL and KARA’sHan Seungyeon. Amongst these three, Han Seungyeon debuted first through KARA and as KARA was going through member changes with Kim Sung Hee leaving the group in 2008, Han Seungyeon had offered Ji-U the opportunity to join. However, Ji-U had declined the offer as she was more focused on her schoolwork and studies at the time.

As of now, Ji-U is enrolled at Ewha Womans University and is majoring in Traditional Korean music. She also garnered much attention by showcasing her talent in playing one of the instruments on air.
