Kpop has had its share of non Korean members; Amber&Henry from F(X) and SUJUM are from Canada, Victoria from F(X)’s Chinese, Dara & Thunder from 2NE1 and MBLAQ are Filipino; but there has yet to be any Caucasian idols, or groups of idols all originating from some place outside of Asia. Yeah, well we won’t be able to say that anymore.
Introducing the new 5 member boy band prepared to sweep Korea of their feet; Esquire.
Esquire isn’t just your typical debuting K-pop band, there’s something unique about them that no other Kpop band has. Not only are the members of their group a mixture of Chinese, Korean, and English, but they all as well are Canadian natives!
ESQ’s preparing for their debut with their single, “Monster” on September 12th, when they’ll be revealed to Korea’s public. Although their official debut wont be until September 12th, some of you might recognize their fresh faces.
Sharp eyed netizens have already begun back tracking the member’s pasts. Kyle Moffat has been recognized as being a professional model in Japan, as well as came in 3rd place in Cube’s audition with his impressive dance rendition of SHINee‘s “Juliette.” Tony Tse, also competed for the same auditions with his own dance medley of Taeyang‘s “Wedding Dress” & BEAST’s “Shock.” Members K9 (Wayne Yoo) and Denny Choi made a special appearance at Cube’s audition back in February performing K9′s self-written track “Ways of People.”
Check out their audition videos below, and lets wish ESQ the best!
