Beak Chan appeared on the radio show “Kim Shin Young’s Hope Song at Noon” this week. On the same show, when a BTS ARMY asked the 8Eight singer about his relationship with BTS members, to which, Chan confessed that he is “not close to them.”
However, he did reveal that back in the days of their training, Jimin and V approached him for some advice.
“In order to get experience being on stage, the BTS members took part as dancers in an 8Eight concert before their debut,” Baek Chan recalled.
“The guys would practice singing in the basement practice rooms. Back then, if I went down there, Jimin would ask me, ‘How do you do a falsetto?’ and V would ask, ‘How do you do a high note?’ I told them as much as I could, and I’m proud because they’re cool and doing well now,” he was quoted as saying to Soompi.
