Oh My Girl's Mimi was chosen by Shin Won-ho.
On the 25th, the tvN program 'Bbang Bbang Earth Arcade Room 3' featured comedian Lee Eun-ji, singer Lee Young-ji, group Oh My Girl's Mimi, and IVE's An Yu-jin performing acting auditions in front of Shin Won-ho.
Upon seeing Shin Won-ho, Lee Young-ji said, "You really need to pick me. I am practicing acting." Previously, Shin Won-ho mentioned in another variety show that he was considering Lee Young-ji for the lead role in the drama 'Reply 2002.'
When Shin Won-ho saw Lee Young-ji, he jokingly said, "Was I drunk then?" causing laughter around him. Lee Young-ji stated that she would showcase her acting in front of writer Lee Woo-jung. Writer Lee Woo-jung called Shin Won-ho to the front.
Immediately, the audition for the drama 'Reply 2002' began. Writer Lee Woo-jung requested that they act as if they were trying hard not to be sad after a breakup. Lee Young-ji showcased her acting of receiving a phone call from her boyfriend.
Lee Young-ji, upon receiving a call from her boyfriend, acted as if she was angry, saying, "You have a new girlfriend," which elicited laughter. Seeing this, Shin Won-ho looked flustered and couldn't help but laugh.
Next, An Yu-jin took on the audition. An Yu-jin pretended to cry while being informed of a breakup, but only emitted sniffing sounds, causing laughter in the room. Shin Won-ho remarked, "I like acting that is not learned this way. I prefer acting that lacks foundation. In other words, it’s refreshing," praising her performance.
Following that, Lee Eun-ji and Mimi presented their acting. As a summary of the auditions, Shin Won-ho chose Mimi. He said, "I like unique characters. I believe a character that suits Mimi will emerge."
