BIOGRAPHY

Jongho (종호) was born on October 12, 2000 in Ilsan, South Korea, but moved to Seoul at a young age. He attended Noil Middle School and graduated from Surak High School. In October 2017, a few of KQ Entertainment's trainees took part in a casting for the show MIXNINE (a survival reality show). Jongho was one of the four trainees who made it onto the show. He placed 27th in the MIXNINE Just Dance showcase, but was later eliminated in the 10th episode. In the end he reached 43rd place.
