2016–2018: Pre-debut activities
In her youth, captivated by actors on TV, she dreamt of becoming a celebrity, expressing her aspirations with determination. In May 2016, Shuhua was recruited by Cube Entertainment during the Cube Star World Audition. She finished her first year of high school before moving to South Korea to be a trainee.
