Kevin Woo was raised in Danville, California where he lived with his parents and elder sister. He is fluent in English, Korean, and Japanese. At the age of 15, he moved to South Korea to pursue his dream of becoming a singer. After auditioning in Korea, he was scouted and made his debut in a group called XING in 2006. He re-debuted as an original member of U-KISS in 2008. In March 2017, he announced his official departure from the group after he successfully completed his contract with NH Media. Kevin is currently preparing for his solo career.   Sam Okyere is a Ghanaian TV personality who rose to fame with the variety show “Abnormal Summit” as the Ghana representative after initially moving to Korea as a student.

Jun began his Youtube career in 2011 after graduating high school. Classically trained for over 8 years, Jun used his skill set in filmmaking and violin to create a successful YouTube channel.

YTN FM 100.3 HDS2 “Krush” Radio DJ.             This is Edward and he likes beauty and the booty lol. Okay so apparently he wasn’t aware that he needed a legit bio for this section so he’s adding this on lol. Edward (or Eddy) grew up in California and gained an interest in YouTube when it first came about while he was in high school. At the same time he was introduced to the world of K-Beauty (through YouTube) and K-Pop. All of these elements eventually congealed into what is now his (messy) YouTube channel. Now based in Seoul, Edward documents his life as well as talks about the fast growing world of K-Beauty while incorporating K-Pop (he won’t shut up about Monsta X).       He is a Korean youtuber named ‘GoToe’ and makes videos about K-Pop music. He really hopes to see all of you at KCON17LA and says see you soon! 🙂               Hey its Feiii! She’s just your average fan girl next door! She loves trying out weird and not so weird makeup/skincare products! Anything from blackhead strips, acne products, to a simple cushion foundation, she’s got it! Add KPOP into the mix and you’ll have yourself a nice cup of tea!            IAMNOT combines multiple genres from rock and hip-hop to blues and jazz to create a sound that is truly one of a kind. Maybe, the last word they want to put in their band’s name must be the word ‘general’ because they want to be unique, truly unique.  The 3 members, from the legendary band named ‘Bremen’ vanished in 2006 left only one album behind, had never given up on the desire of music and kept continuing the musical career.  They eventually got together in 2015 wearing the color of blues music.  The new formation and atmosphere of the members are clearly seen in the new form of the band. The 3 members, LIM HEONIL with the raw sound of guitar and vocal, KIM JUNHO who is a distinguishable drummer and a vocal as well, and YANG SION playing the bass and producing the music, are the total package that can make the band remarkable.   Jeff Benjamin is Billboard’s K-Pop columnist, a post he’s held for five years, and a senior digital editor at Fuse TV.
