Legends say he's actually a Korean grandpa stuck in the body of a 20yo boy
Huang Renjun's nationality is Chinese, but I've heard that he's of Korean ethnicity. And I believe he went to a Korean school.
That one legendary play from his childhood was in Korean and it looked like a school play. It always got me wondering how it actually happened since afaik he hadn't been in SM then. It'd make sense if he actually went to a Korean school.

I just looked it up and that video was in a Korean bilingual school in Jilin. There are still a lot of speculations about his ethnicity, but he takes a lot of pride in being Chinese.

Heโs most likely of Korean descent. Heโs from the 1 of the Three past kingdoms of Korea.

The kingdom was Gurgoyeo which is modern day Manchuria. This area was predominantly Manchu/Korean/Hui Muslim from my understanding with a minority of Han Chinese but obviously China wonโt colonize then leave them alone so they brought Chinese over and now they are the majority. But the ethnic groups are still there. Considering he speaks korean, is named Renjun, heโs from Manchuria, and his last name is Huang(Hwang in korean) theres a higher chance heโs Korean than Chinese. Uhh HUANG is both korean and chinese last name so. Itโs truly tricky. Did I mention he looks Korean? Like he looks straight up like a Korean not Chinese.
Thereโs a small minority...but If he was a korean from the past kingdom then heโd just be korean but if he was a korean who came to north korea or his parents from North Korea then heโd probably never say. Iโve heard heโs north korean but of course thats just a rumor. Either way he probably would never say because then koreans would automatically assume heโs family supported Communism therefore theyโd hate him more than the average chinese. Also, with everyone saying โhe has prideโ in China...well..no duh...of course he would if heโs korean from china he wouldnโt think the korean war nor china were bad because his ancestors wouldโve sided with communists since they didnโt move south, but of course a few got stick so you never know.
Sorry for the long explanation just explaining everything weโve discussed about him on Pann.
Korea wouldโve highkey been much bugger if it werenโt for communism.
Also, there is another Korean-Chinese idol too...heโs actually confirmed Korean. He participated in Produce Season 2 didnโt make the team but they had another team called JBJ for contestants that were close to debut and he was in it, now heโs with JBJ95
Jin Longguo was born in Helong, Jilin, China on March 2, 1996. He is a Chaoxianzu (Korean in China, though the area heโs from is technically korean not chinese, theyโre kinda like the Zainichi Koreans in Japan) of Gim clan of Gimhae descent. Gimhae is korean clan. Some members of this clan are Key (Shinee) Yesung (Super Junior) and Xiumin (EXO). You notice anything yet? They all have the last name Kim and Longguoโs last name is Jin which is a form of the korean โkimโ in chinese. Theyโre all technically distant cousins, not that itโs kim but because of this specific kim clan since thereโs so many in korea.

Primarily because those koreans are natives and the chinese colonized it like they did Tibet and Uighurstan.

Very interesting..hmm. Like every time I looked at him I would swear he has Korean origins from the way he talked, looked, and even his name. samtanvan has his parents ever showed up or been mentioned?
Itโs sad if this is true and confirmed, he might get hate from some people of something he and his family had no control over. I thought on the contrary he would be more accepted in Korea if he is of a Korean ethnicity than being introduced as Chinese.

Well Korean in China claim China because they sided with CCP or werenโt able to escape during the war. They also notoriously sided with NK thatโs why most are there.
Iโm pretty sure his whole family speaks korean because his grandparents do. They really are joseonjok huh ๐ค
