Oh, you don't know? You don't know about DeepDive? They didn't get you into KPOP? Oh...then who did?! DeepDive is a five member fictional boy group under MYDOL Entertainment that debuted in 2018. While they promote primarily in Korea, they are considered the biggest boy group internationally at the moment. Though wildly successful, hot, and wealthy, the boys are controversial as most MYDOL groups seem to be.
< @user48272 > FINN LEE IS THE BEST IDOL OF OUR GENERATION!!
FINN LEE AKA LEE JUNGWOO was born December 24th 2001 in Miami, Florida but would move to Busan, South Korea with his mother, father, and older brother, Matthew, in 2010. The pair would begin training under MYDOL in 2015 when Finn was 14 and Matthew was 16. Throughout their training, Finn said he felt he was often in his older brother's shadow.
It's no secret to diehard DeepDive fans that the original lineup of the group included Matthew not Finn as Son Jinhwa, Mydol CEO, felt Finn wasn't fit to debut in a group and would suit the soloist route better. Fate had different plans. Matthew would suffer a career ending femur injury, resulting in him being pulled from the DeepDive line up just six months before debut.
Sixteen year old Finn Lee would save the day.
He'd debut as the groups MAIN VOCAL, MAIN RAPPER, and CENTER. Though those are his official positions on the MYDOL website he's also stated he's the leader of the group after Noah stepped down from the position in 2021. Many would argue he is also the face of the group, but if you mention that online you'll run the risk of getting harassed for seven days and seven nights. It's a touchy topic.
Though Finn is a staple in the KPOP community as DeepDive member and soloist, he is not free of his controversies. While most are kept on the downlow by his company and rabid fans, Finn is a notorious club goer and womanizer, being in over seven massive dating scandals throughout his career — that's not even counting the minor ones.
< @user48272 > NOAH SON MADE YOUR FAVORITE SONG!! SPEAK KINDLY!!
NOAH SON AKA SON HANBIN was born Febuaray 1st 1998 in Jeonju, South Korea but would be raised in Seoul where he would attend international school throughout his childhood. Being raised by none other than the CEO of MYDOL himself, Son Jinhwa, and his American mother, Naomi, Noah was destined to be famous. Keeping him from the spotlight for most of his early childhood, Noah has been quoted saying before he started training, he wanted to be a writer or a teacher.
Noah would begin his idol training at MYDOL when he was just 11 years old under the advisory of his father.
"Dad was a great teacher," Noah would say in an interivew with ELLE, "I knew I was going to be the best with him teaching me."
Before his debut, Noah would be a producer for Mydol alongside Finn Lee, both of them quickly climbing the ranks and gaining recongintion in the industry. Noah is the most credited producer under Mydol Entertainment, having over 335 KOMCA-registered songs.
He holds the positions of MAIN RAPPER, MAIN VOCALIST, and LEAD DANCER of the group.
< @user48272 > #BLUEOUTSOLDURFAVESAGAIN #BOOHOO #BESTNEPOBABY
KANG WOOBIN AKA BLUE was born March 1st 2000 in Daejeon, South Korea, but would move to Seoul, South Korea with his father when he was five years old. His father, former co-founder of MYDOL Kang Taekyeon, wasted no time in putting his son in spotlight. Blue would be a child actor by age eight and continue acting even when he began his idol training at thirteen, but is it really training if you know you're going to debut?
Often cited as one of the most known nepobabies in the industry, Blue wears the title with great pride, often being smug about it during interviews to get netzens buzzing about him.
Though his attention seeking ways often get talked about more than his talent, he is, in fact, very talented and a well-trained idol. Mainly known for his smooth vocals and expertise in mastering the most complicated of footwork, he also is known for steadily continuing his acting career and the accolaids he's collected throughout his lifelong acting career.
He holds the positions of VISUAL, MAIN DANCER, and LEAD RAPPER of the group.
< @user48272 > KIWOO HATE MAKES SENSE...HAVING A FACE LIKE THAT WITH A VOICE LIKE THAT? I'D BE MAD TOO!
BAE KIWOO AKA KIWOO was born on May 7th 2002 in Ulsan, South Korea. He is an only child...It shows. Seemingly being the only member who didn't lose his childhood to idol training, Kiwoo would only begin training after being scouted by Son Jinhwa during a school talent show when he was freshly sixteen. Kiwoo would only train for four months before his debut which, undoubtable, gave him a massive ego until he hit his twenties.
Known as the 'mandatory twink' of the group, Kiwoo would stand out amongst the lineup for his soft features, small stature, and effimenit mannurisms he didn't notice until thousands of people online pointed them out. While he's stayed steadfast in who he is and never changed, over the years, it's been noticed that he's become more and more private and closed off from fans.
Kiwoo is the strongest vocalist in the group even if someone with a Finn profile tells you otherwise. His collection of OSTs, ballads, and trot singles are some of the groups highest charting solo works within Korea, making him easily the most beloved member domestically especially amongst older women.
He holds the positions of MAIN VOCALIST and LEAD DANCER of the group.
< @user48272 > IDK IF YOU HAVE TIME TO HATE RIAN YOU HAVE TIME TO GET A JOB!!
SUNG RIAN AKA RIAN was born on July 1st 2002 in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, but was adopted by a Australian couple and was raised in Melbourne, Australia. After jokingly submitting an online audition to MYDOL at fifteen, he would receive a callback less than a week later and relocate to Seoul shortly after, speaking conversational Korean but admittedly having absolutely no idea what he was getting himself into.
Every few months, a post claiming he "wouldn't have debuted in any other group" gains twenty thousand likes before someone inevitably uploads a compilation of him singing live while dancing and everyone pretends the conversation never happened. He's an extremely stable live vocalist, a strong dancer, a decent rapper, and arguably the group's most versatile member when it comes to actually keeping up with whatever concept MYDOL throws at them.
His Australian accent, tendency to say things on livestreams that clearly weren't approved beforehand, and general inability to behave like a properly media-trained idol have made him a favorite amongst Western fans since DeepDive's debut. He's responsible for an embarrassing amount of the group's viral clips, is usually the member shoved in front of a microphone during American interviews, and has repeatedly ranked as DeepDive's most popular member outside of Korea.
Naturally, this has created the equally embarrassing accusation that he's only famous because he speaks English, as if being hot, funny, talented, and chronically online somehow doesn't count.
He holds the positions of LEAD VOCALIST, LEAD RAPPER, and MAKNAE of the group.
