TOP5 Reflect on Their “Starting Point” After Life Is an Audition Seoul Concert

TOP5, formed through the audition program Life Is an Audition, has completed its Seoul concert schedule and shared reflections on the experience. A behind-the-scenes video released by DanalEntertainment captured the performers discussing the afterglow of the stage and the concert’s final moments.

Jaeha says Korean concert was a dream

Jaeha spoke about the concert’s significance to his career. After 14 years since his debut, including performances overseas in China and Japan and idol activities, he said he had long wanted to hold a concert in Korea. “Three years after I first dreamed of becoming a singer, I finally realized that dream,” he said. “I don’t want to think of this concert as the end, but as the beginning.” He also said he hoped performances would continue in other regions in response to fans’ requests.

Performers reflect on the stage

Choi Dae-sung said he hoped to become a “late-blooming” singer, like his name, and achieve great success. He expressed gratitude that Life Is an Audition had led to a concert and said he was determined to continue his activities.

Park Min-su said he was proud that the effort put into preparing for the performance had been met with applause and cheers from the audience. He said he had spoken with the other members backstage about how grateful and happy he was to have become a real singer, and credited the fans with helping him stand on that stage. One of the performers described the show as feeling “like playing at a playground and then heading home from work,” conveying the enjoyment of performing.

Lee Sang-mi joins fan activities

Singer Lee Sang-mi, DJ of Life Is an Audition on SBS Love FM, appeared as a special guest and enlivened the concert. She held a quiz for the audience and engaged with them. Thanking fans who listened to the radio for 10 weeks without missing a day and took part in text-message voting, Lee said, “You are the real stars.”

The performers wrapped up the Seoul concert by taking commemorative photos, bringing the event to a successful close without incident.
