Background

Mackiah Mercer, known professionally as Mackiah, is a Korean-Australian rapper and member of AMPERS&ONE. Born on January 21, 2006, in Sydney, Australia, Mackiah spent part of his childhood in Busan, South Korea, after his family relocated there shortly after his birth. Growing up between two cultures helped him become fluent in both English and Korean, and he later became an important bridge between AMPERS&ONE's Korean-speaking and English-speaking members. His time in Busan also left him with a noticeable Busan dialect, something fans enjoy hearing during broadcasts and live streams.

Before becoming an idol, Mackiah had very different career plans and originally considered becoming an electrician. However, after attending an FNC Global Audition in Sydney—encouraged by his mother—his life took a completely different direction. He successfully joined FNC Entertainment and eventually debuted with AMPERS&ONE. Known for his bright personality, humor, and strong bilingual communication skills, Mackiah quickly became one of the group's most recognizable members and a fan favorite among ANDEARs.

Fan-made pieces inspired by drama nights, bias feelings, and soft delulu moods.
