Seoung Yong Sook (Korean: 서웅 용숙; born April 18, 1997) is a South Korean fiction professional dancer and choreographer based in Tokyo, Japan. Known for his sharp, disciplined stage presence and his signature “Scorpion” persona, he works as a freelance performer, movement coach, and choreography director for music videos, idol training programs, and commercial productions.

Early Life

Seoung Yong Sook was born in Seoul, South Korea, to architect Seoung Dong-Min and former opera singer Hyo Eun Jung. He spent part of his childhood living with his grandparents in a rural area, where he was introduced to street dance after watching a group of local teenagers practice outdoors. Inspired, he began training on his own, experimenting with rhythm and movement.

As a teenager, Seoung became known for his rebellious and unpredictable behavior, shaped by family tensions and a distant relationship with his older brother. At age 15, he auditioned for the national talent program Asia Talent, where he placed in the top 10 and entered a multi-year trainee system.

Career

2012–2015: Trainee Period

During his trainee years, Seoung underwent intensive training in dance, stage performance, and physical conditioning. He developed a unique style blending urban dance with capoeira elements, beginning formal capoeira practice at age 16. His intense, controlled personality earned him the nickname “Scorpion”, which later inspired the scorpion tattoo on his right arm.

2015–2019: Q360 and Early Work

Seoung debuted in 2015 with the dance performance group Q360, appearing on national television programs, events, and commercial projects. The group remained active until 2018–2019, gradually disbanding as members pursued individual paths.

In late 2019, Seoung terminated his contract with the Korean agency KM&D Corp. to focus on solo projects and choreography work.

2020–present: Move to Japan and Freelance Career

In early 2020, Seoung relocated to Tokyo with his manager, Hwang Sun Hi (“Sunny”), seeking broader opportunities. Without attending formal language programs, he learned Japanese through daily life and on-set work. Over time he became a sought-after freelance choreographer for dance crews, TV networks, and idol agencies, including POPcorp, NTV sub-studios, and various independent production companies.

His work spans:

• background dancer casting

• music video choreography

• stage performance direction

• movement and conditioning training for idols

• custom workout programs for performers

He is known for strict discipline, high standards, and a minimalist, high-intensity teaching style.

Artistry and Style

Seoung’s choreography emphasizes:

• sharp, controlled movements

• capoeira-inspired sweeps and rotations

• urban/hip-hop footwork

• strong rhythmic precision

His persona combines quiet intensity, emotional distance, and methodical determination. Although often perceived as cold or intimidating, he is respected for his professionalism and consistency.

Personal Life

Seoung is described as private, solitary, and highly disciplined. He dislikes clutter, loud environments, and crowded spaces, and is sensitive to strong scents. He enjoys running at dawn, capoeira, boxing, and highly spiced food. He avoids nightlife and dedicates most of his time to training and work.

Although he maintains little contact with his family, he privately records monthly video journals reflecting on his career and life in Japan. He has expressed a long-term wish to reconnect with his mother, though he speaks about his family rarely.

Discography and Filmography

Seoung is not a musical performer and has no discography. His career is primarily dance- and choreography-based.

Jang Min-kyu (장민규), known professionally as TANER, is a South Korean fiction singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer under Silverwave Entertainment. He is known for blending trap, rock, and emotional R&B into a distinctive hybrid sound, driven by his deep, husky baritone vocals and introspective lyricism. Taner debuted in 2025 with two studio albums released the same year: Bayonette (April 2025) and Carbon Fiber (November 2025).

Early Life

Taner was born and raised in Bundang-gu, Seongnam, a modern district south of Seoul. From an early age, he showed a strong interest in emotions, mood, and human behavior. After high school, he enrolled in Human and Emotional Studies at Sungkyunkwan University, a field that later influenced the depth and tone of his songwriting.

During his university years, he frequently visited a small indie–jazz–alternative club near Seoul, where he began writing songs and performing on guitar. He was discovered there by a producer, who invited him to join BlueShift Entertainment. Taner eventually left university to pursue a professional career in music.

Career

BlueShift Entertainment

Taner began his career under BlueShift Entertainment, where he developed the early foundations of his trap–R&B–rock sound. During this period, he formed a close artistic and personal relationship with Nyxel, a fellow idol from the same agency. Their chemistry was immediate; they collaborated on multiple songs and were widely regarded as one of the label’s most compelling creative duos.

Their relationship later faced a deeply personal and painful event known only to the two of them. Although they publicly stated that they separated “to focus on self-growth,” the truth behind their breakup was far more emotional and complex. This period left a significant mark on Taner’s artistic identity, contributing to the darker and more introspective themes that would define his later work.

Move to Silverwave Entertainment

After several years, Taner departed from BlueShift and signed with Silverwave Entertainment, where he entered a new chapter of his career. In 2025, he released two studio albums that showcased a more mature, emotionally dynamic interpretation of trap, rock, and R&B.

Musical Style

Taner’s music combines dark trap basslines, atmospheric R&B textures, and cinematic rock guitar elements. His vocal approach is characterized by a deep, warm, slightly raspy baritone, balancing emotional vulnerability with charismatic intensity.
