'The Ballad of Us Season 2' Min Ji-yu Boasts SOPA Pride: "Suzy and BTS's JUNG KOOK Graduated From Our School"

Two arts high school students boasted about their respective schools.

On the November 9 broadcast of SBS's "The Ballad of Us Season 2," the Round 2 one-on-one battles continued following the previous week.

In this episode, two arts high school students, Min Ji-yu from the School of Performing Arts Seoul (SOPA) and Cha Min-ju from Lila Arts High School, went head-to-head.

Host Chun Hyun-moo drew attention by revealing that both contestants achieved a "triple crown" in arts high school admissions. In response, Cha Min-ju said, "I was accepted to all three: Seoul Music High School, Hanlim Arts High School, and Lila Arts High School." Min Ji-yu then shared, "I passed admissions for Seoul Music High School, Hanlim Arts High School, and the School of Performing Arts Seoul."

Watching this, Joo Woo-jae asked, "Since you both attend different arts high schools, which school is stronger?"

Min Ji-yu then showed pride in her school, saying, "Isn't SOPA a bit better after all? Suzy is an alumna, and BTS's JUNG KOOK, as well as IVE's JANG WONYOUNG and Rei, are also graduates of our school."

Countering her, Cha Min-ju said, "Our school is somewhat on the rise these days," and drew bursts of laughter by bringing up Jeremy, a contestant from "The Ballad of Us Season 1," saying, "First of all, we have Jeremy." Cha Min-ju also attracted attention by revealing that Jung Ji-ung from "The Ballad of Us Season 1" is also a graduate of her school.
