Dino

Dino (디노), born Lee Chan (이찬) on February 11, 1999, in Iksan, South Korea, is the maknae (youngest member) and main dancer of SEVENTEEN (세븐틴). A member of the group's performance unit, he is celebrated as one of K-pop's most technically gifted and expressive dancers, known for blending sharp precision with sincere emotional storytelling on stage.

Lee Chan joined Pledis Entertainment in 2012, training in singing and dancing for three years before debuting alongside his teammates. He attended Seoul Broadcasting High School, graduating in 2017. On May 26, 2015, he debuted with SEVENTEEN through the extended play 17 Carat, completing the group's 13-member lineup as the final piece.

Even before his formal solo debut, Dino carved out a distinctive creative identity. In 2017, he released self-written SoundCloud songs "0 (Zero)" and "The Real Thing," both composed in collaboration with SEVENTEEN's in-house producer Bumzu. From 2018 onward, he launched Dino's Danceology, a solo dance video series that has grown to over 11 entries, covering tracks from artists like 5 Seconds of Summer and Josef Salvat. The series showcases his range as both a performer and a choreographer.

On November 27, 2023, Dino released his debut solo mixtape "Wait", a deeply personal single that charted at #1 on the iTunes Song Chart in 22 countries. The release marked a milestone as the last SEVENTEEN member to launch a solo project, delivering it with quiet power and emotional sincerity.

Beyond music, Dino has been featured in high-profile brand campaigns, including a 2024 pictorial in W Korea alongside S.Coups to promote German luggage brand Rimowa. His work with BAPE Store Dosan cemented his standing as a style force within the K-pop space.
