Known for having so many alumni and current students who are members of the K-Pop industry, Hanlim Multi Art School is one of the most prestigious arts-focused high schools in Korea. Hanlim's long list of notable alumni includes SHINee's TaeMin, Red Velvet's YeRi, SEVENTEEN's Woozi, and TWICE's DaHyun. With some students taking an exam one day and performing on "Music Bank" the next, the school's name carries much weight, as so many of its students have already begun their dream careers as idols.
Here are 10 K-Pop idols who are currently students at the prestigious Hanlim Multi Art School!
1. ENHYPEN's JungWon
JungWon is a member of Hanlimโs class of 2023 studying under the school's applied music department. With Jay and Sunoo both graduating earlier this year as members of the class of 2022, JungWon was been left to be the only member of ENHYPEN attending Hanlim. Prior to attending the prestigious arts high school, he was a student at Namgang High School.
2. BAE173's DoHyon and Bit
DoHyon and Bit are both members of Hanlimโs class of 2023 and under the schoolโs applied music department. In the video below, the two encourage students to apply to their school.
DoHyon was once asked by a fan which idol attending Hanlim would he want to get close to, and he replied with ENHYPENโs JungWon! Even if he never ended up becoming close with JungWon, he still had an idol friend at Hanlim aside from Bit, and that idol friend is the now-graduated DongPyo of MIRAE. Here are a couple of school vlog videos that the former X1 members made together!
3. Much of NMIXX
Four of NMIXXโs members are currently enrolled in Hanlim. SullYoon and Bae are members of the schoolโs class of 2023, while JiWoo is a member of the class of 2024, and the groupโs maknae, KyuJin, is a member of the class of 2025. All of them chose to study under the broadcasting & entertainment department.
Unfortunately, Bae hasn't posted a selfie on Instagram in her school uniform like the rest of NMIXX's Hanlim line!
4. YOUNITE's SiOn
The newly-debuted maknae is a member of the schoolโs class of 2023, but the schoolโs department that he studies under is unknown.

5. Weeekly's JiHan
