"Lee Felix"

Lee Felix (Korean name Lee Yong-bok), born on 15 September 2000, is a Australian k-pop singer presently affiliated with the K-pop rookie boy band Stray Kids. Known by the mononym Felix, he serves as their lead dancer and rapper. His parents are Korean but he was born and raised in Australia. He even attended to St Patrick’s Marist College, a Catholic private school in Sydney before moving to South Korea. He participated in the reality TV show, ‘Stray Kids,’ which premiered on Mnet in October 2017. Created by JYP Entertainment in order to launch a male idol debut project, the show quickly garnered public attention. In October 2017, Stray Kids’ first single, titled ‘Hellevator,’ was released. However, Felix and one other member of the group, Lee Know, were subsequently removed from the show. They would later be brought back as Stray Kids ended up retaining all its nine original members in the final line-up. After releasing their pre-debut extended play ‘Mixtape’ in January 2018, they made their official debut in March that year. The group has since released three more EPs, several singles, and multiple music videos. In 2018, Felix and his group received the New Hallyu Rookie Award at the Soribada Best K-Music Awards.
