Actress Go Ara recently revealed that her stunning looks made her incredibly popular during her school days, even causing unexpected chaos among her peers.

Appearing as a special MC on SBS’s My Little Old Boy on February 2nd, Go Ara shared a childhood photo and recounted how people would always stop to admire her as a baby.

She then recalled a particularly wild incident from high school, saying, "Since I attended an all-girls school, students from different grades gathered to see me. They even climbed up and ended up breaking a window on the second floor."

Despite her popularity, Go Ara admitted she has never been on a blind date. "I started working in the entertainment industry at a young age, so I never had the chance. But if I like someone, I go straight for it," she said. When Shin Dong-yup asked if she’d be hurt if rejected, she jokingly responded, "Is there even a scenario where someone wouldn’t want to meet me?"—prompting laughter.

Go Ara also revealed the impressive odds she overcame to enter SM Entertainment, winning a competition with an astounding 8,231:1 applicant ratio. "There were multiple categories—looks, singing, and dancing—and I dominated all three. I even won the grand prize," she said, originally attending the audition just to support a friend.

The actress also reminisced about her trainee days with Super Junior’s Kim Heechul, calling him a “true fashionista.” She humorously added, "Even in the middle of winter, he’d only wear a thin cardigan, put his hands in his pockets, and have earphones in his long hair. But his lips were completely blue!"

Seo Jang-hoon chimed in, "Well, it’s freezing now, so I only wear padded jackets," filling the studio with laughter.
