Background
Kim Woon Hak, better known as Woonhak, was born on November 29, 2006, in South Korea. As the youngest member of BOYNEXTDOOR, he quickly became known for his bright personality, confidence, and natural talent. Even before debuting, Woonhak stood out for his determination. When KOZ Entertainment scouts visited his academy, he accidentally overslept and missed the audition, but the company was impressed enough to contact him directly and invite him to audition anyway.
In 2023, Woonhak debuted as the maknae of BOYNEXTDOOR under KOZ Entertainment. Despite his young age, he has already built an impressive résumé, serving as an MC on Inkigayo while actively promoting with the group and successfully completing Korea's demanding college entrance exam. His energy, intelligence, and lovable personality have helped make him one of the most popular members among fans.
