And please go check out my new works~ #South Korea's Most Alpha Maknae Rapper# #South Korea's Youngest Maknae Rapper# South Korea's strongest coming-of-age group arrives in style!!! Kang Cheolhyuk had been a lone wolf who could find no equal. While working underground, he met two incredibly talented rapper big shots. A fanboy at heart but too stubborn to admit it, Kang Cheolhyuk somehow ended up joining an entertainment company. There, he met six older brothers who doted on him, and one younger brother whom he doted on. As the last member to sign, he was called Number Eight. Though he was a year older than the maknae Jungkook, he was always doing childish things, so his nickname became Cheolhyuk the Little Brother. #South Korea's Strongest Coming-of-Age Group# #Who's the Maknae in This Group, Anyway?# #The Older Brothers Have No Authority, So the Younger Brother Takes Charge# Kang Cheolhyuk's profile: A 1996-born little brother brimming with swag, but really just a baby kitten. A baby face, a baby voice, and a younger, puppy-like charm: confirmed! Formerly an underground rapper, he joined Big Hit alongside Kim Namjoon and Min Yoongi, but was the last to sign his contract, making him the eighth member.
