June Babies: Warm Energy & Visual Power
Hoshi (SEVENTEEN)
- June 15, 1996
SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi, born Kwon Soon-young, is known for his explosive stage presence and boundless energy, Hoshi leads SEVENTEEN’s performance team with unmatched precision and passion. One of his nicknames, “10:10,” comes from the unique angle of his eyes, resembling the hands of a clock at ten minutes past ten. Unique, right? He became a trainee in 2011 and trained for years before SEVENTEEN debuted in 2015. His June birthday fits perfectly with his bright energy that never fails to leave a mark.
Yeosang (ATEEZ)
- June 15, 1999
Yeosang, one of ATEEZ’s standout visuals, is proof that quiet confidence can speak volumes. This summer-born idol radiates a unique mix of soft charm and cool mystery. With a signature birthmark under his left eye and a gaze that could stop traffic, Yeosang doesn’t need to say much to leave a lasting impression. He debuted with ATEEZ in October 2018 under KQ Entertainment, helping shape the group’s rise to global stardom. Fans know him as the “Speaker of Facts” and lovingly call him “Hehe-mon” for his perfectly timed humor and lowkey chaos. Calm on the surface but full of surprises, Yeosang is like a perfectly chilled soda on a summer day.

A summer baby through and through, Tzuyu radiates the soft glow you only get from June-born stars.

Keena (FIFTY FIFTY)
- July 9, 2002
Keena debuted as the main rapper of FIFTY FIFTY, but her soulful, solid tone also shines through in her vocals. Thanks to her long trainee period, her live performances are impressively stable. She’s known for being thoughtful and deeply responsible—so much so that she once killed a bug with her bare hands for her members and even gave up her own room so a sick member could rest while she slept in the living room. Warm-hearted and grounded, Keena is a true summer soul who lights up the stage with quiet strength and genuine charm.
