Because of his father's job, Jisung and his family lived in Malaysia during his middle school days. It was during those years he decided he wanted to become a singer, since he thought telling stories through music was cool. To pursue his dreams, he made a deal with his parents: he goes back to Korea, and if he doesn't get accepted to a company in a year, he would return to continue his studies. It wasn't among his original plans to audition at JYP Entertainment, however one day, after auditioning with a friend at another company, he heard JYPE is also holding auditions. He didn't believe he could make it but that friend persuaded him to try anyway, at least they could spot a celebrity. And so, he passed auditions at 15, becoming the second trainee to join after Bang Chan among those who would eventually form Stray Kids. Then Changbin joined – whom he used to consider the only trainee whose rap skills truly challenge him – and the common interests of the aforementioned three led to 3RACHA being founded in early 2017.
II. Meet Han through music.
Han is known for, among many other things, his sentimental songs, often expressing a sense of fragility and introspection.
Below you can listen to Stray Kids songs he's the sole lyricist (and for the majority, also the main composer) of and also to his solo projects made with the support of Bang Chan.
With Stray Kids
"19". It's an age that marks the beginning of adulthood but what does that mean in the first place? The song deals with the complicated feelings of crossing that gap between childhood and the unfamiliar future.

너무 빠르다 이 순간을 기다렸는데 너는 어떠냐 조금 겁나? 아님 신나? 나는 사실 너를 보내려니 아프다 하루가 느리게 갈 때마다 빨리 가라 기도했지만 지금 내 심정은 모두 반대야 지금 이 순간이 잠시 멈췄으면 좋겠어 시간아 이제 여기 있지 말고 딴 데 가
하나 둘 셋 다시금 back to the 열셋 그때 되고 싶던 가수가 이제는 됐네 아직도 믿기지 않지만 난 행복해 내 꿈에 많은 운이 함께 했기에 만족해
근데 내가 꿈을 꾸기 전부터 기대했던 이 순간 일시 정지하고 싶어 준비도 아직 되지 않았는데 저기 멀리 나를 기다리고 있는 20대가 나를 기다려
왜 이렇게 너무나 빠르게 느껴지는 걸까 이 하루가 딱 여기서 셋 세고 나면 모든 게 꿈처럼 다 사라지고 나만 다시 그때로
Back, back, back, back, back, back 좀 더 전으로 내가 매일 떼, 떼, 떼, 떼, 떼 떼쓰던 그때로 지금이 지나가면 멀어질까 봐 지금의 나를 다신 못 볼까 봐 I just wanna go Back, back, back, back, back, back 다시 그때로
이제 말투는 더욱 어른스럽게 좀 서툴지만 당당한 척 걸었네 어른인 척하고 다니는 중학생 처럼 아직 미숙하고 모든 게 안 익숙해
내게 친숙했던 10시 이후 청소년 출입금지 표지판은 이제 나와 관계없네 근데 어째 아빠 엄만 아직도 날 아이로 보는데 이상하게 나도 아직 이게 익숙해
Pay attention 나이가 몇인데 또 떼써 곧 있음 나는 청소년이란 명찰을 뗄 거 이쯤 하면 됐어 자연스러워 계속 불편해하지마 그래 모두 똑같이 다 그랬어
매번 되고 싶던 나이 스물 남들과 같은 과정을 겪은 건데 나만 이리 불안할까 아님 다른 사람 가까운 우리 엄마 아빠 형도 똑같은 맘으로 이날을 보냈을까
왜 이렇게 너무나 빠르게 느껴지는 걸까 이 하루가 딱 여기서 셋 세고 나면 모든 게 꿈처럼 다 사라지고 나만 다시 그때로
Back, back, back, back, back, back 좀 더 전으로 내가 매일 떼, 떼, 떼, 떼, 떼 떼쓰던 그때로 지금이 지나가면 멀어질까 봐 지금의 나를 다신 못 볼까 봐 I just wanna go Back, back, back, back, back, back 다시 그때로
그토록 어색했던 곳이 이젠 나의 집이 되고 그토록 너무 컸던 서울이 이젠 내게 작게 보여
내가 그때 꿈을 꾸며 이륙했는데 이제는 창밖을 보며 착륙 준비를 해 내가 그때 꿈을 꾸며 이륙했는데 이제는 창밖을 보며 착륙 준비를 해
그토록 어색했던 그토록 너무 컸던 그토록 어색했던 그토록 너무 컸던
This is too fast
I waited for this moment, how about you?
Are you scared? Or excited?
Actually, it hurts me to let you go
Every time a day felt slow, I prayed it’ll go by quickly
But nowI feel the opposite
I wish this moment would stop for a bit
Time, don’t stay here, go away for a moment
1, 2, 3, once again, back to the 13 Now we became the artists we wanted to be back then
I still can’t believe it but I’m happy
Because I had a lot of luck with my dreams, I’m satisfied
But even before I started to dream
I was excited for this moment I wanna stop time for a moment
I’m not even ready yet
My twenties are waiting for me from far away
Why
Do the days go by so quickly?
If I count to three right here
What if everything disappears like a dream
And I’m back to the beginning?
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the past
When I used to fret fret fret fret
Every day
If this moment passes, what if it gets far away?
What if I never see the me of right now again?
I just wanna go
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the past
Now the way I talk is more grown up
Still a bit inexperienced, but I’m walking like I’m
confident
Like a middle school student acting like a grown up
I’m still immature, not used to anything
I was used to seeing adult only zones after 10PM
Now it doesn’t matter anymore
But what do I do? My parents still view me as a baby
Strangely, I’m still used to it too
Pay attention, how old are you to fret again?
Soon, I won’t be a minor anymore
This is enough
It’s natural, keep going Stop being so uncomfortable, everyone went through this
I always wanted to turn 20
I’m going through the same thing as everyone else
But why am I the only one so nervous?
Or maybe other people close by like my mom, dad and brother
Maybe they all went through this too
Why
Do the days go by so quickly?
If I count to three right here
What if everything disappears like a dream
And I’m back to the beginning?
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the past
When I used to fret fret fret fret
Every day
If this moment passes, what if it gets far away?
What if I never see the me of right now again?
I just wanna go
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the past
This awkward place
Is now my home
Seoul used to feel so big
Now it feels so small
I landed here with a dream
Now I’m looking out the window, preparing to take off
I landed here with a dream
Now I’m looking out the window, preparing to take off
It was so awkward
It used to feel so big
It was so awkward
It used to feel so big
"LA looked so pretty. Mountains and skies were so beautiful, I wrote Sunshine during those times. I want to rest but I can't because I'm afraid that I'd fall behind. I don't want to tread water so I can't rest willingly. The lyrics are about an ideal break rather than a realistic one […] People like me can't take a break because they'd feel empty." — Han

"Slump" is an emotional, raw confession written after a creative block of his in the summer of 2019.
"I started to become calculative at some point. I started to write songs with the thought of knowing that if I write it in this way, it would become a side track, and if I write it in the other way, people would look at it strangely. I didn't feel good about it. I didn't listen to music for a whole month. I tried to block out all the other melodies and focused on myself. After being determined to only write songs that I want to write, I started to get out of the slump. I also managed to write songs that are much better than the ones before." — Han

어디가 나 여기 남아 있잖아 제발 두고 가지 마 한 시간만 난 지금 아니면 안 된단 말이야 이 시간아
미친 말처럼 초침은 달려 지금 날 데려가 혼자 머물러 있으며 과거를 즐기자는 말 하지 마 외톨이 같은 기분 나 홀로 비참하게 도태되기는 싫단 말이야 Take me to you now
Too fast 너의 걸음에 맞추다 넘어져 아직 난 여전히 이곳에 서 있어 불과 몇 달 전 나와 같이 걷던 이 길에
나 홀로 Walking on the way 너무 추워 이 거린 So cold 점점 내 걸음걸이 느려빠진 Slow mode 항상 앞서가던 내 모습은 다 Black or white 사진처럼 이미 지난 일이 됐어
이러다 여기 혼자 멈춰질까 두려워 꿈을 꾸며 달리던 기차는 고장 나고 여전히 눈앞에 아른거리는 많은 섬 그곳에 나 혼자 못 닿을까봐 두려워 ey
하루 종일 머리 감싸며 핑 도는 눈물 항상 같은 자리 똑같은 식상한 노래와 가사 모든 게 1년 전과 같은 느낌
제발 좀 잘해봐 어디 가서 부끄럽지 않을 수 있게 yeah 나 자신을 볼 때 나도 웃으면서 내 모습 자랑스럽게
수많은 사람들 앞에 나를 다 내보였을 때 요즘은 조금씩 창피해 초라한 내 모습 어떨까 ey 나만 빼고 모두가 앞으로 걸어가 항상 나와 걷던 그들도 이제는 조금씩 멀어져 내 눈에도 보이지가 않아 yeah yeah
Too fast 너의 걸음에 맞추다 넘어져 아직 난 여전히 이곳에 서 있어 불과 몇 달 전 나와 같이 걷던 이 길에
나 홀로 Walking on the way 너무 추워 이 거린 So cold 점점 내 걸음걸이 느려빠진 Slow mode 항상 앞서가던 내 모습은 다 Black or white 사진처럼 이미 지난 일이 됐어
이러다 여기 혼자 멈춰질까 두려워 꿈을 꾸며 달리던 기차는 고장 나고 여전히 눈앞에 아른거리는 많은 섬 그곳에 나 혼자 못 닿을까봐 두려워 ey
Where are you going? I’m still left here Please, don’t leave me behind Give me just one hour, I can’t do this if I don’t do this now, Time
The second hand runs on like a crazed horse Take me with you now Saying we should enjoy the past on our own, don’t say that, I feel like I’ve become a loner I don’t want to die pitifully here alone, take me to you now
Too fast, I fall trying to keep up with you I’m still left standing right here on the roads we walked together just a few months ago
I’m alone walking on the way, It’s too cold, these roads are so cold Bit by bit my steps become slower like slow mode The way I used to keep pushing forward is now all black and white like a photo just showing what’s left in the past
I’m afraid I’ll just have to stop here alone The train that ran on my dreams has broken down The visions of islands still waver in front of my eyes, and I’m afraid I’ll be the only one who can’t make it there, ey
I bury my head in my arms all day long and the tears well up in my eyes, I’m always in the same place The same old songs and lyrics, everything feels the same as a year ago
Come on, do better, so you don’t have to be ashamed wherever you go, yeah, so that I can smile and be proud when I look at myself
Whenever I show all of myself in front of a lot of people recently I’ve been feeling embarrassed wondering how shabby I must look Everyone except for me keeps walking forward, and everyone who had walked alongside me became so far away I can’t even see them, yeah, yeah
Too fast, I fall trying to keep up with you I’m still left standing right here on the roads we walked together just a few months ago
I’m alone walking on the way, It’s too cold, these roads are so cold Bit by bit my steps become slower like slow mode The way I used to keep pushing forward is now all black and white like a photo just showing what’s left in the past
I’m afraid I’ll just have to stop here alone The train that ran on my dreams has broken down The visions of islands still waver in front of my eyes, and I’m afraid I’ll be the only one who can’t make it there, ey
It was a day like any other but nothing felt right at all, nothing ever feels sincere: and loneliness creeps up. Is it overly idealistic to expect anything else? He wishes for this song to comfort listeners and help them organise their thoughts.
"Is everyone but me happy? I really want to know
Or am I just a kid who doesn’t know how to hide it yet"

피곤한 몸 씻고 나와서 또 재미없는 TV를 틀고 흥미 없는 뉴스는 오늘도 알 수 없는 말로 떠들어
제일 중요했던 일이 뭐였더라 하고 싶던 일이 많았는데 시간에 자꾸 쫓기느라 세상에 참 많은 곳이 있는데 맘 편히 한숨 푹 쉴 공간조차 주변엔 없더라
그저 두 발 뻗고 눕는다고 눈이 감기지 않아 눈을 질끈 감아봐도 다시 꿈이 없는 잠을 자 잠에서 깰 때마다 짧은 호흡 잠깐의 몽롱함 의미 없는 하루 그 끝엔 다시 반복 yeah
끊임없는 다툼 끝이 없는 한숨 늘어지는 하품 신경은 날카롭고 하는 말은 비수 이 모든 일에 싫증
어두운 방 안을 비집고 들어갔던 날 그 누구 한 명쯤은 나를 돌아봤을까 힘겹게 겨우 하루 보냈었던 오늘 난 몇 번 웃었나 그게 과연 진심이었을까
생각에 잠긴 내 모습은 웃겨 어린애가 걱정도 많구나 그저 할 일이나 똑바로 해 휑 한 내 맘속은 다 몰라준 채 웃어넘길 줄만 아는 그런 모습이 난 싫더라
그저 두 발 뻗고 눕는다고 눈이 감기지 않아 눈을 질끈 감아봐도 다시 꿈이 없는 잠을 자 잠에서 깰 때마다 짧은 호흡 잠깐의 몽롱함 의미 없는 하루 그 끝엔 다시 반복 yeah
다들 나 빼고 행복한 거야 그게 참 궁금해 아님 나만 아직 숨길 줄 모르는 어린애 모두 가면 속에 내면을 다 꽁꽁 숨겨서 외로움이라는 단어에 조금씩 무뎌져
I washed my tired body
And turned on the boring TV again
The dull news is going on and on
About something again today
What was most important to do?
There was so much I wanted to do
But I kept being chased by time
There are so many places in this world
But I can’t find a place
To rest comfortably anywhere near me
Even if I lay down and stretch out my legs
My eyes won’t close
Even if I force them shut
I have a dreamless sleep
Whenever I wake up, my breathing is short
And my brain’s hazy for a bit
There’s another meaningless day
And at the end I repeat this again, yeah
Endless fights
Endless sighs
And drawn out yawns
My nerves are on edge, my words are knives
I’m sick of it all
When I pushed my way into this dark room
Did anybody bother to look back at me?
I barely managed to make it through this hard day
How many times did I smile, and were they genuine smiles?
I find the way I’m trapped in my thoughts funny
I’m still so young, but I have so many worries
Just do what you’re supposed to be doing well Nobody knows anything about how empty my heart feels
And I hate how
All they know how to do is laugh it off
Even if I lay down and stretch out my legs
My eyes won’t close
Even if I force them shut
I have a dreamless sleep
Whenever I wake up, my breathing is short
And my brain’s hazy for a bit
There’s another meaningless day
And at the end I repeat this again, yeah
Is everyone but me happy? I really want to know
Or am I just a kid who doesn’t know how to hide it yet?
Everyone hides it behind their masks
And become numb to the word ‘loneliness’ bit by bit
"As the title suggests —Secret Secret— everyone has a secret that cannot be told. There are times when even talking to people doesn't help. Sometimes you're scared it will work to your disadvantage. I've been thinking about such things a lot, which made me write this song. To those who listen to this song, instead of saying 'I went through this' I wanted to say 'I bet you went through something similar. Just like you, I am thinking about the same thing. We are both human and we are friends.' That's what I wanted to say through the song." — Han

축 처진 어깨 젖어버린 옷
시끄럽던 음악 소리마저 작게만 들려
답답했던 내 목소리를 다
이 비에 흘려보내고 싶어 꺼내 본다
내려오는 빗물에 모든 걱정들을 담아 떨쳐내
이런 내 모습 속으로 더 깊이 젖어 들지 않게
Baby it’s fallin’ eh oh
끝의 한 방울까지 eh oh
웃는 얼굴로 떠나보내
손끝에 맺힌 마지막까지 모두 다
괜찮은 척하는 게 더 외로워
홀로 다른 곳을 바라보며
나의 고민을 수없이 지웠다 그리는 걸
반복해 봤자 달라지는 건 없어
뭐 언젠간 익숙해지겠지
이런 느낌조차 잊은 채로 살아가겠지
바쁘게 걸어가다 보면 괜찮아지겠지
비 온 뒤에 땅이 굳고 다시금 꽃이 피듯이
축 처진 어깨 젖어버린 옷 시끄럽던 음악 소리마저 작게만 들려 답답했던 내 목소리를 다 이 비에 흘려보내고 싶어 꺼내 본다
내려오는 빗물에 모든 걱정들을 담아 떨쳐내
이런 내 모습 속으로 더 깊이 젖어 들지 않게
Baby it’s fallin’ eh oh
끝의 한 방울까지 eh oh
웃는 얼굴로 떠나보내
손끝에 맺힌 마지막까지 모두 다
애써 더 웃어본다
하루가 길어진다
점점 더 지쳐간다
세상에 혼자 남겨진 기분이야
난 이 맘조차 속이며 잘 지낼까
내려오는 빗물에 모든 걱정들을 담아 떨쳐내
이런 내 모습 속으로 더 깊이 젖어 들지 않게
Baby it’s fallin’ eh oh
끝의 한 방울까지 eh oh
웃는 얼굴로 떠나보내 손끝에 맺힌 마지막까지 모두 다
Never ever ever ever
Never ever ever ever
Never ever ever ever
손끝에 맺힌 마지막까지 모두 다
I can't say anything
Words just linger in my mouth
Sometimes I get scared
Will someone notice?
I shout louder in the sound of rain
I'm afraid all my words will be buried
The sky is getting cloudy
Drooping shoulders, wet clothes
Even the loud music seems so quiet
All of my frustrated thoughts
I want to throw it away in this rain, so I take it out
Put all your worries away in the falling rain
So that I don't get immersed in my self more deeply
Baby, it's fallin' (Ayy, oh)
To the last drop (Ayy, oh)
Let it go with a smile
Everything until the end of our fingertips
Pretending to be okay makes me evеn lonelier
Looking at a differеnt place, all alone
I endlessly repeat to draw and erase my worries
Even if I repeat it, nothing will change
Someday you'll get used to it
I will live without even this feeling
It'll be okay if you walk around busy
Like the ground hardens after rain and flowers bloom again
Saggy shoulders, wet clothes
Even the loud music can be heard at a low level
All of my frustrated voice
I want to throw it away in this rain, so I take it out
Put all your worries away in the falling rain
So that I don't get immersed in my self more deeply
Baby, it's fallin' (Ayy, oh)
To the last drop (Ayy, oh)
Let me go with a smile
Everything until the end of our fingertips
I try to smile more (Never, ever, ever, ever)
The days are getting longer (Never, ever, ever, ever)
I'm getting more and more tired (Never, ever, ever, ever)
I feel left alone in the world
Will I get better by deceiving my own heart?
Shake off all my worries by putting them into the falling
rain (Oh, ooh)
So that I don't get immersed in my self more deeply (Yeah)
Baby, it's fallin' (Ayy, oh)
To the last drop (Ayy, oh) (To the last drop)
Let me go with a smile
Everything until the end of our fingertips (Everything until
the very end)
Never, ever, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever, ever
Everything until the end of our fingertips
"Close" is Han's first solo SKZ-Player project. The atmospheric song deals with the awkwardness of first love upon first sight. It was inspired by a 15-second clip from the 2004 movie Closer – which Han didn't actually watch, aside from that particular clip.

"I Got It" is a 180 degree turn from his light, sentimental songs. This confidence and wordplay-filled track touches on absurd nit-picking of antis and identity as an idol rapper.

"Alien" is a word Han really likes. It's also how he would describe the way he felt in the past, as someone with little social skills and experience with human interaction suddenly being surrounded by many others when he became a trainee. He wishes for the song to comfort those who are struggling with loneliness like he did back then.
