They also gave her an iPod as a birthday present that included all the songs she liked.

During middle school, a friend urged her to audition at YG Entertainment. She auditioned and became a trainee at YG Entertainment. Miyeon trained at YG for 5 years, and chose to leave the company in early 2015. According to Miyeon, life outside the company was difficult for her since she spent all of her childhood as a trainee, so she went on a vacation to Japan and took some time to look back on herself. Later, she attended a vocal academy and took MIDI classes and became interested in music composition and production. During time at the vocal academy, she received a recommendation to audition for Cube Entertainment. Although she only had a short time to prepare for the audition and felt nervous, she passed the audition and was added to (G)I-DLE debut line up as the main vocalist. She was happy because she could now sing and dance as she had in the past. Miyeon trained really hard with (G)I-DLE members and made her debut with the girl group in 2018.
