Early life[]
Deng Chenglong was born on the same day on his older brother’s birthday in 2005. He grew up watching his brother play violin and piano and he decided that he’d follow his steps too. Chen was the reason why his brother became an idol and because of that he wanted to really debut as an idol. Chen loved playing guitar and did performances for care homes with his school band
YUMIVERSE FIGHTERS (Trainee days)[]
After his brother suddenly passed, Hanno of StrayChildz sent out an invitation to join JYP Entertainment. Just before the event, his brother told Hanno that Chen wanted to follow his steps and that was his dying wish (if he were to die at the time). After the incident she thought it would be time to fulfill his wish and sent out the invitation. Chen accepted and funny enough, he had the exact same talent his brother had. Chen became popular instantly and was favourited by trainers. He joined YUMIVERSE FIGHTERS as it would be a quicker way to debut and the applications were trending worldwide.
His strong points are: Rap, dance and stage presence. He currently ranks 1st place on Into the Yuniverse! With over 61,752 Votes/Stars.
