Beyond the stage, Beomgyu is known for his multifaceted artistry, playing multiple instruments and engaging in visual design, cementing his role as a modern idol who shapes every aspect of his craft.
Generation Z
1997–2012
Born into smartphones, social media, and school shootings. The most diverse generation in history. Pragmatic about money, fluid about identity, anxious about the climate. They do not remember a world before the internet.
Beomgyu was born in 2001, placing them squarely in the Generation Z. The events that shaped this generation — social media, climate anxiety, and a pandemic — shaped the world they entered and the choices available to them.
