WINNER
(Kang Seung Yoon, Lee Seung Hoon, Kim Jin Woo, Song Min Ho, and Nam Tae Hyun)
is YG’s new boy band formed eight years after BIGBANG’s debut. They entered the
entertainment world as Team A of “WIN: Who Is Next?” show and became the winner
after a close match with the other team. Now, they are expecting an official
debut as boy group, turning from YG trainees. WINNER members are talented and
versatile, capable of songwriting, choreography, and producing. Their
attractive style, look, voice, and unique choreography that were demonstrated
in the show have drawn much support from the public. “FINAL BATTLE”, WINNER’s
album released upon the end of the audition program heralded the birth of a new
idol group, by topping not only Korean music charts but also iTunes charts of
four countries. In December 2013, WINNER goes one step closer to the public,
openly disclosing the process of preparations for debut, as well as their fun
and cheerful everyday lives, in reality show [WINNER TV].

Prior to the group's debut,
the leader Kang Seung-yoon was a former Superstar K2 contestant and was part of
the final 4. After much consideration, he decided to sign with YG Entertainment
in 2011 and revealed he had chosen the company as he was impressed by their
demands to return to training to "hone his craft". In the same year
he made his acting debut through the popular sitcom High Kick: Revenge of the
Short Legged. In 2013, months before the airing of YG's reality program,
WIN, he had made a solo debut releasing multiple tracks notably "It
Rains" which reached the top spot in multiple charts.
Lee Seunghoon, the group's
main dancer was also a former reality-singing contest alumni - K-pop Star
Season 1 wherein he came in fourth place. YG recruited Lee himself, being one
of the show's judges and had shown great admiration for him - specifically for
his choreography skills - during the series' run.
Song Minho started out
underground under the stage name "Mino" or "Hugeboy Mino"
with former underground rappers-turned-idols namely Block B’s P.O, Zico and
M.I.B's SIMS. He was initially a trainee for the male group Block B but left
the group before debut for personal reasons. In 2011, he made his debut as a
rapper for the ballad group BoM under Y2Y Contents Company however the group
was disbanded 2 years later due to the lack of popularity with the public. In
2013 he was recruited into YG through private auditions after being recognized
from his acting debut in March 2012 in the cable drama The Strongest K-POP
Survival in Channel A.
Kim Jinwoo attended
"Joy Dance - Plug In Music Academy" also known as "Seungri
Academy", his senior label mate's - Big Bang's Seungri's company. Seungri
brought Jinwoo to YG after seeing his potential until he eventually got
accepted as a trainee in 2010. Kim and Nam Taehyun - who was recruited in 2011
through a private audition - performed as backup dancers at the 2011 YG Family
Concert.
