Learn more about Felix

Felix is a member of the South Korean group Stray Kids (SKZ) and contrary to what one might think, Felix was not born in South Korea; he was actually born in Australia, more precisely in Sydney (Seven Hills) where he grew up. He only recently moved to Korea, in 2017, when he joined the JYP agency. He is the second child in a family of three; he also has a younger sister Olivia and an older sister Rachel.

Even though he is the son of two Korean parents, when he joined JYP Entertainment in 2017, he did not speak Korean, which almost prevented him from joining the group. But thanks to the help of the other members, especially Bang Chan, he made great progress in just one year to catch up. Changbin also helped him a lot to adapt to Korean culture and customs.

Many know him for his talent to switch from a deep voice to a high-pitched voice, which impresses many. He is also known for his physical features, like his freckles which, according to him, "add to his charm," something hard to argue with.

If you wonder where his nickname “Koala” comes from, it’s simple: that’s what the other members call him because he is originally from Australia, quite simply. The same goes for Bang Chan, who earned the nickname Kangaroo. But unlike his nickname "koala," he hates being called by his Korean name "Lee Yong Bok."

It’s not really a nickname, but he is also called "Crybaby" because he cries a lot and easily. The other group members say it’s because he has an innocent and pure heart and that he is a good person.

Felix is very close to the other group members, but he is even closer to Hyunjin with whom he shares a friendship ring. Their fans consider them best friends.

Alongside the group, he has also been a host on two TV shows "Pops in Seoul" and "Kingdom: legendary war", as well as a co-host alongside Bang Chan for the event "Kcon 2018".
