Youngest Contestant On “Idol School” Shocks With Current Whereabouts

She was spotted with a top star.

Fans were stunned after spotting the youngest contestant from Idol School Kim Eunkyul at LE SSERAFIM’s recent concert.

Eunkyul, who first appeared on Mnet’s survival show Idol School as the youngest trainee, has kept a low profile since her time on the program. Many wondered what she was up to after stepping away from the spotlight. She was a mere 12-years-old when she first appeared.

Now, photos and fan accounts have confirmed that she attended LE SSERAFIM’s concert to show support for her close friend, Eunchae. She made sure to pose with the members after the Las Vegas leg.

Eunkyul later went on to train at YG Entertainment for awhile, while Eunchae went to HYBE. While Eunchae made her debut, it seems like Eunkyul has stepped away from the spotlight and life as a trainee. She now attends college at an arts school.

The unexpected sighting has sparked buzz online, with netizens reminiscing about her idol trainee days and expressing surprise at her current connection to one of the industry’s hottest girl groups. While Eunkyul has not returned to the entertainment scene, her presence at the show proves she still has ties within the K-Pop world.
