TWICE Mina, who used to be a ballet dancer prior to her debut as an idol, revealed the reason she decided to leave her ballet career. While most fans think it is because she became a K-pop idol trainee, her reason is completely different.
On YouTube's 1theK original channel on November 15, TWICE Mina revealed why she quit ballet.
On Monday, a new video of TWICE was uploaded through 1theK's "IDDP" wherein the members looked into various Korean portal sites and confirm if the information related to them in the platforms were true or not.
In the video, Mina then revealed the reason she quit ballet after spending almost half of her life on it.

"In fact, I didn't quit because I became a trainee, but it is just I wanted to learn (other) dance. I quit ballet while fighting with my parents," the female star confessed.
"I learned it for a long time, so they (Mina's parents) said it was a waste (to quit), so I replied, 'Should I do ballet until I die?'," Mina continued, narrating how her parents initially disagreed to her decision to quit ballet.

As a response, fans conveyed their reaction to Mina's reason.
