Prior to his debut, Changbin (formerly known as SPEARB) trained at JYP Entertainment for two years. During this time, Changbin was part of the pre-debut group 3RACHA with Bang Chan and Han.

Changbin showed off his rapping prowess during a brief yet memorable appearance on Show Me The Money 5, but his fanbase grew significantly once he competed on Stray Kids.

Changbin’s rapping style is both powerful and precise. He is able to aggressively slay each note while keeping perfect time to the beat. Changbin’s performance of “Mastryonshka” impressed his audience from the very first word.

Changbin can also rap at the speed of sound without losing any of the grittiness that makes his deep voice so distinct.
