Blessed with musical talent from an early age, YeonTak grew up in Andong, North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea.

He debuted as a ballad singer in 2007, and after participating in several group projects, he took a new step as a trot singer in 2016.

With his unique style and assured vocal prowess, his appearance on the audition program Mr.

He also shines as a producer, winning the Hot Trend Award and Best Songwriter Award at the 2020 Melon Music Awards.

Kangta was a member of H.O.T., a group under SM Entertainment, a major South Korean entertainment agency.

H.O.T.

was active from 1996 to 2001 and is one of the legendary groups known as the “first generation of K-pop idols” that transformed the Korean idol scene.

Many idols, including TVXQ, say they aimed to become idols after seeing them.

They are sometimes called the SMAP of Korea.

Kangta was the lead vocalist, gaining huge popularity for his husky, powerful voice and good looks.

After the group disbanded, he continued to be active as a solo artist.

This is Sunggyu, the leader and main vocalist of INFINITE.

As the group’s leader, he keeps the members organized.

However, when he appears on variety shows, he often shows an un-idol-like timid side, making him a lovable character who’s very popular.

This is Park Kyung, the rapper of Block B.

Although he’s an idol, he sometimes picks his nose in public and has revealed that he’s picked it so much that the size of his nostrils is different.

He often slips an “aai” somewhere into his songs, so within Block B he’s also called the “aai” guy.

This is Loco, the winner of the audition show “Show Me The Money” and an active hip-hop musician.

He’s an artist under AOMG, headed by Jay Park, and his rap is characterized by a soft, gentle voice.

I think even people who aren’t into rap will find his music easy to listen to.

As a singer, he established his own agency, RealSlow Company, in 2017 and performed under the stage name RealSlow.

In February 2009, he received a welcome from British R&B singer Craig David and remade the single “Insomnia.” That same year, while producing his sixth album, he recorded songs with local staff in the United States.

Through that connection, Fisong (Phison) was chosen to sing a song that Ne-Yo had originally written for Michael Jackson, and more recently he drew attention for being the first Asian singer to remake Michael Jackson’s “You Are Not Alone.”

SacrificeHan Sun’u (Han Sün’u)

Han Seung-woo, whose older sister is Han Sun-hwa from Secret, is the oldest member of VICTON.

In 2019, he appeared on PRODUCE X 101 and became the leader of X1.

After the group disbanded, he returned to VICTON in 2020 and made his solo debut with his first mini album, “Fame.” The title track “Sacrifice” reached No.

1 in multiple countries.

He’s an all-rounder who handles songwriting, composing, and choreography, but above all, his vocals—where a sweet vibe and sensuality blend exquisitely—are one of his biggest charms.

He’s also seen as a fatherly figure beloved by the members!
