I. Introduction
Lee Know is the Dancing Machine of Stray Kids. Born as Lee Min Ho on October 25, 1998, Lee Know grew up with a passion to dance and perform which made him pursue it at a young age.
As a young aspiring dancer Lee Know was a member of SoulDance's (Dance Academy) Cupcake Dance Crew from 2015 to 2016 and shortly afterward he worked as a backup dancer for BTS.
Soon after he received a call from a JYP casting director at a dance competition. He didn't hear back from JYPe for 2 years until they got a hold of him again and asked him to join the company.
Quote from Lee Know
"I was already a dancer, I participated in a dance competition And I got a call from JYP, so I went to audition. But, I didn’t hear back from them for a long time. So, I thought I failed. I continued my life as a dancer but JYP called me a few years later."
From that point on, Lee Know entered JYP Entertainment as a trainee. He passed the dance evaluation in 2 weeks and after training for a year he would participate in the "Stray Kids" survival show. Lee Know was eliminated on the 4th episode but was given the chance to come back and would eventually debut with the group, Stray Kids.
Aside from being Stray Kids' Main Dancer, Lee Know is also a Rapper, Songwriter, Composer, Choreographer, and Vocalist. He is also known for having a 4D personality.
