Lee Chae Young of 'K-pop Star 3' has been recruited by Yang Hyun Suk.
A representative of YG Entertainment told OSEN on April 16, "We are aware that Lee Chae Young caught the eye of Yang Hyun Suk while he was judging for 'K-Pop Star 3'. Yang thinks that rather than YG competing to scout 'K-Pop Star 3' contestants, we consult with JYP and Antenna Music about nurturing a dream with potential for growth together."
"We doubt that Yang Hyun Suk will make 13-year-old Lee Chae Young debut immediately. Yang thinks that she can grow more in a few areas if she spends 3-4 years training under YG's systematic singer training program... It's his style to find talent early on and train them well."
The agency also spoke to several other media outlets, "We have recruited Lee Chae Young. Yang Hyun Suk had kept his eyes on her and informed the staff of the show that he wanted to recruit her. Lee Chae Young also said that it was her dream to sign with YG, so she accepted the offer."
Lee Chae Young was seen first on 'K-Pop Star' and came back after two years on 'K-Pop Star 3' and because of her persistence she has earned a recruitment to YG Entertainment.
