๐ฐ Woni from Geoje, San from Namhae... A true 'rags-to-riches' story has emerged [SAN cut]
๐ https://t.co/P4QU23Utwi
With a single bounce of his chest, Choi San broke through the domestic charts, and with a few words of Geoje dialect uttered by Woni, a song from two years ago surged back to number one. It was neither a massive project pushed forward by capital nor a grand worldview. ATEEZ's Choi San and RESCENE's Woni, two members of mid-sized idol groups who rose from the sea, turned the tables on the group.
First is San, originally from Namhae, Gyeongsangnam-do. Debuting with ATEEZ under KQ Entertainment in 2018, San has introduced himself as "Namhae's first idol." He has even revealed that he "grew up like a country boy," having worked part-time harvesting garlic in Namhae before becoming an idol. It is also a well-known story that singer Na Sang-do, a student of San's father who runs a Taekwondo dojang, introduced San to his current agency, paving the way for his debut. It was a beginning quite far removed from his current glamorous image.
ATEEZ's success formula also differed from the typical "mega-idol course." They were recognized by overseas fans before the domestic public, and by expanding their stature through world tours, they topped the Billboard main album chart three times. They also graced major global stages such as Coachella. While they were recognized as a top-tier K-pop group overseas early on, their name was not as familiar domestically as their status suggested. It was a gap between being "a trend abroad but little known in Korea." SAN has now completely shattered that wall.
In 'BAD,' released last June, just a few seconds were enough. The choreography in the latter part, where he stared at the camera in a sleeveless outfit while his chest swayed, exploded in popularity as the so-called 'Let's All Die Part.' Reaction videos of people stopping while pouring water or staring blankly while doing housework poured in, and the trend spread even to people in their 40s and 50s who usually had no interest in idols. 'Northern Grand Duke Choi San,' who was famous only within the fandom, burst right into the middle of the public's algorithms.
His appearance, looking as if he stepped right out of a web novel cover, and his off-stage persona resonated deeply. While he exudes an unapproachable aura on stage, whenever the topic of his hometown comes up, a "country boy" who grew up digging garlic in Namhae suddenly emerges. The twist revealing a humble young man from Namhae hidden behind a face resembling a "Grand Duke of the North" further fueled the "Choi San fever." This fervor carried over to the music charts. "BAD" entered the Melon Top 100 for the first time since ATEEZ's debut and steadily climbed the rankings, reaching 10th place on the Melon Daily Chart on August 17. With the stature ATEEZ had built over eight years overseas combined with San's public buzz, they successfully gained mainstream popularity in Korea as well.
Namhae's No. 1 Idol' and 'Geoje Girl.' Even after rising to fame, neither of them forgot their hometowns. San has donated 5 million won annually to Namhae for four consecutive years, from 2023, when the Hometown Love Donation System began, until this year, and is also distributing return gifts to vulnerable groups in the region.
In an era where it is difficult for a dragon to emerge from a stream, the two members from Namhae and Geoje have pierced the hearts of the public with their unique charms in the battlefield of K-pop, where launching an idol group costs billions of won in production and capital directly translates into exposure and opportunities. They are a "miracle of mid-sized idols," all the more welcome precisely because they are so rarely seen.
โค remember to engage with articles to boost brand reputation rankings, and to show interest!
