I often hear the story that the person who is called "idol" said

"I was discovered by a talent scout when I walked downtown."

Though some people tell that she/he is a liar, I don't know the reason why they could decide it.

To tell you the truth, I am not interested in this story at all.

As for me,

"I was discovered as a writer when I opened my diary"

is a real story.
