Peniel is born to DJ!

The Cube Entertainment boy band member is taking on DJing duties this week on Arirang Radio‘s Music Access. Tune in everyday now until December 9th [KST] and you can hear the K-pop star with the perfect Chicago accent. That’s right!  Peniel is from Chicago.

In 2009, he auditioned during JYP Entertainment‘s Global auditions in the Windy City and he was chosen by the top K-Pop agency. He later transferred to Cube shortly before debuting with BtoB.

BTSCelebs Fact: I was one of the auditioners at the very same audition that year. It’s great to see (and hear) one of my fellow Chicagoans make it big in the K-Pop world.
