SEVENTEEN member Vernon's recent appearance on SBS's "꼬리에 꼬리를 무는 그날 이야기" (Kkokkomu) is generating buzz. During the show, he openly discussed his middle school first love and his belief in love at first sight, offering a glimpse into his personal views on romance. This appearance, alongside his unit activities with The8 as V8, has drawn public interest to his personal profile and background.
Vernon, whose full name is Hansol Vernon Chwe, was born in New York City in 1998 and holds dual citizenship in South Korea and the United States. He moved to Korea at age four and considers the Hongdae area of Seoul his hometown, feeling more culturally familiar with Korea despite his American birthplace. He is a rapper in SEVENTEEN's hip-hop team and actively participates in lyric writing and composition, and his parents are both artists.
Bloggers highlight Vernon's "4D rapper" image and his candidness, noting his ability to be both serious and humorous. His various nicknames, such as "버카프리오" (Vernon-Capri) due to his resemblance to Leonardo DiCaprio, "솔이" (Soli, his preferred nickname from his Korean name Hansol), and "잔반처리" (Leftover Processor) for eating members' leftovers, reflect his diverse charms and personality as perceived by fans and the public.
