In the K-pop industry, the journey from audition to debut is usually a rigorous one, typically involving one to two years of intensive training in music and dance. However, some idols have defied these norms, showcasing their natural talent and hard work by significantly shortening their training period. Let's check out some of these idols who debuted not long after becoming a trainee.

1. BTS Jimin: Jimin's path to fame is remarkable. With only six months of training, he stepped onto the stage, astonishing everyone. His background as a contemporary dancer undoubtedly contributed to his rapid progress, proving his innate talent and dedication.

2. Apink Eunji: Eunji's vocal prowess suggests years of training, yet she only trained for two months before debuting. Her ability to deliver flawless notes so quickly is a testament to her exceptional talent.

3. LOONA Olivia Hye: Olivia's journey is almost unbelievable – she was a trainee for just one day with BBC before debuting. Her previous years of training at FNC certainly played a role in this accelerated debut.

4. HA:TFELT Yeeun: Yeeun, with her myriad of talents, spent less than a week training before joining Wonder Girls, one of K-pop's legendary groups. Her dedication and skills have been a topic of admiration among her peers and fans alike.

5. fromis_9 Gyuri: Gyuri’s natural flair for stardom was evident as she needed no formal training period before joining fromis_9, showcasing her inherent talent.

6. Super Junior Kyuhyun: Kyuhyun's addition to Super Junior after just three months of training highlights his multifaceted talent. From singing to hosting, he has proven to be a versatile entertainer.

7. EXO Baekhyun: Baekhyun’s four-month training period before joining EXO is remarkable, especially considering the challenging vocal parts he tackles in their songs. His mastery of vocals is a clear indication of his exceptional abilities.

These idols' stories are inspiring examples of how talent, combined with dedication, can lead to extraordinary achievements in the K-pop world, often defying the traditional paths to stardom.

Kyuhyun trained with Shinee members if I'm not mistaken. But he debuted with Super Junior (late addition after a year). All the idols in the list did great and well 👏
