During an episode of the YouTube show 'Salon Drip 2' on May 20, RIIZE member Wonbin shared a story about almost pursuing a career as a sushi chef in Japan. Wonbin and Sohee were guests on the show and talked about their journeys to becoming singers. Wonbin mentioned being scouted on social media by an SM Entertainment employee during high school, recalling being approached at a station and later masked to prevent other agencies from recruiting him.

The show ended with MC Jang Do Yeon mentioning that Wonbin's father had suggested he become a sushi chef before starting his singing career. Wonbin explained that after being an athlete for a long time and uncertain about his future after leaving sports, his father proposed the idea of going to Japan to learn sushi making. Despite not having a personal interest in the restaurant industry, Wonbin's father was enthusiastic about it.

RIIZE recently broke its record for album sales with their first full album, 'ODYSSEY.'
