Park Chanyeol (born (1992-11-27)November 27, 1992), is a South Korean singer, rapper and actor who is a member of the South Korean-Chinese boy group EXO and its sub-unit EXO-K.

Early life

Park Chanyeol was born on (1992-11-27)November 27, 1992 in Seoul, South Korea. He attended Hyundai High School in Apgujeong-dong, Seoul. He has a sister named Park Yoora, who is an Announcer at MBC Broadcasting Station in South Korea. His parents own an Italian restaurant "Viva Polo" in Seoul.

Chanyeol was admitted to a private acting institution when he was sixteen years old, where he became good friends with Block B's P.O.[1] He is currently a student majoring in Culture and Art Management at Kyung Hee Cyber University alongside some of his fellow EXO members of Suho, Baekhyun, and Kai.[2]

After watching School of Rock in elementary school, Chanyeol became interested in music and he soon began playing the drums.[3] Chanyeol, started dreaming of becoming a singer after listening to Unconditional Kismet by Yoo Young-jin.[4] When he was a first year student in middle school, he joined a band with his best friends and played with them for about three years.[citation needed] He was accepted as a trainee under SM Entertainment after coming in second place in the 2008 Smart Model Contest. While training under S.M., he began to turn his focus towards rapping.

In 2016, during the two-day EXO'luXion concerts in Manila from January 23–24, he revealed that he had stayed in the Philippines in 2007 to study English, which is a very popular destination choice for Koreans wanting to learn the language.[5]

Career

Pre-debut

Chanyeol was accepted into S.M. Entertainment during his first year of high school after winning second place in the 2008 Smart Model Contest. During this time, he was involved in his school's band, "Siren". He made several media appearances prior to his debut with EXO, including TVXQ's music video for "HaHaHa Song" in 2008 and Girls' Generation's music video for the Japanese version of "Genie" in 2010.

On February 23, 2012, Chanyeol became the last Exo member to be formally introduced to the public. In April 2012, he was featured in Girls' Generation-TTS's music video for their debut single "Twinkle".

In 2014, Chanyeol wrote the rap for the Korean version of the track "Run" from Exo's second EP and was featured in labelmates Henry and Zhou Mi's debut EPs.

The song also appeared in Exo's third EP. In 2016, Chanyeol wrote and performed the rap in Yesung's song "Confession" from the latter's debut EP.[7]

Chanyeol has cited Jason Mraz and Eminem as his biggest influences, though he was a fan of rock bands like Muse, Green Day, Nirvana, and X-Japan in middle school.[8]
