Kang Haerom (강해롬) is an independent South Korean actor, producer and former idol. They debuted as a member of MY:Dream Entertainment's Simis in 2015, but left the group on 2023 after the company suddenly shut down and the group moved to another label.

Personality[]

Due to their upbringing as an only child, Kaerom is usually closed and reserved, but becomes very caring and affectionate once they get close to someone. They like to hear other people talk about things they like, hence why Kaerom mostly always starts conversations but goes silent after unless they need to intervene.

Pre-debut life[]

Pre-trainee period[]

Born in Jochiwon, a relatively small city in South Korea known for it's big foreigner population, they were surrounded by English speaking people from a very young age, which brought them interest in learning the language.

Being an only child from a working family, Haerom was very self-sufficient since their childhood. When they moved to Seongman, Haerom begun attending a language school, and learnt not only English, but French, Japanese and Spanish as well.

They auditioned for MY:Dream Entertainment on their 12th birthday, but weren't able to get in. They then auditioned again 4 months later, and got accepted.

Trainee period[]

It was hard for them to get to know the other trainees since they found it hard to talk to anyone; seven months into being a trainee, they had only been able to get close to one other trainee, this being Yasuhiro, whom they ended up debuting in Simis with.

On Similar Me, they were the second trainee to be chosen as a member of Simis, wich happened on the third episode of the show.

Career[]

2015-2022: Debut and career as a Simis member[]

Simis debuted on August 27, 2015. Haerom was chosen as the leader due to their ease to solve problems on their own, alongside being able to speak four languages. They didn't like this choice in the beginning, but after a few months they'd already come to terms with it.

Haerom is the only member to have ever choreographed one of Simis' songs, more specifically Flashing, one of the b-sides from their second full album 영혼 (Yeonghon).

2023: Departure from MY:Dream Entertainment and Simis[]

Haerom's contract with MY:Dream Entertainment ended on September 2023, but not with Simis as a group. This meant they wouldn't be managed by MY:Dream anymore, but would still participate in the group's releases.

A few days after leaving MY:Dream Ent., Haerom signed a contract with Ethereal Productions, which became their new managing label. Not very long after, Haerom had to leave the group due to differences with it's newly signed contract, which, as they stated, was basically made to exclude them from any promotion schedule except for music show performances.

2024: Career path change[]

On January, Kaerom announced that although they had signed a contract with a managing company, there wasn't any plans for him to go back to the idol industry in the near future since, Instead, they'd rather pursue and acting and modeling career. Aside from this, they'd also be working as a producer and choreographer on Ethereal Productions, and also a mentor for their trainees.

On June 17, they randomly announced their first solo album, stltwtpsihahbyscits on a twitter post, which was released only an hour after. The very next day stltwyadyngttpbnydkwtd was released as a twin album for the latter.

On the same day their first album was released, Kaerom was revealed as one of the first 10 contestants on Find Your DREAM. In the show, they was one of ten Soulful 1 members. Their group made it to the end, but lost to Nu Jem in the final episode and placed 2nd overall, however, Kaerom left the show with a giant popularity boost, which helped push their solo career further.
