Fast forward sixteen years later, the young Filipina made a name for herself as a powerful vocalist on K-Pop Star 6. She joined the temporary unit Kwins and ended up placing second in the competition.

Kriesha debuted as a soloist on May 24, 2017 with “Trouble.”

2. Belle

Belle (Jin Hyeon Ju) made headlines in the Philippine K-Pop community when fans found out that she was born to a Korean father and Filipino mother. She grew up in Naju, South Korea, before eventually heading to Seoul to debut in the group GOOD DAY in 2017.

Belle once mentioned in an interview that her family often visits the Philippines to celebrate Christmas. She loves how warm it is in December compared to Korea.

3. Sandara Park

Though she was born to Korean parents, Sandara Park is as Filipino as they come! Her family moved to the Philippines in 1994 when she was just ten years old. She worked double time in order to correct her Tagalog pronunciation to make new friends.

The “Pambansang Krung-Krung” (National Crazy Person) rose to fame when she joined the 2004 talent show Star Circle Quest. Filipinos might even be able to recognize her viral solo song “In or Out” which she released afterwards.

Just three years later in 2007, she moved back to South Korea to pursue a career as a K-Pop idol. She trained for two years under YG Entertainment and finally made her debut as a member of 2NE1 in 2009.

The rest is history!
