K-Pop Backup Dancer And “Single’s Inferno” Star Cha Hyun Seung Gets Mistaken For Jay Park
Cha Hyun Seung is a famous face in K-Pop even though he is not an idol himself.
He is most often recognized as the viral backup dancer for Sunmi, although he has been a backup dancer for nearly every K-Pop act.
And recently, he appeared as a contestant on Netflix‘s hit dating reality show Single’s Inferno.
Sunmi and BTOB‘s Changsub are actually the ones who convinced him to go on the show!
I also want to thank Sunmi and Changsub for convincing me to go on the show even though I didn’t want to. They told me that I might meet the right person on the program.
