K-Pop Idols Graduating From Hanlim Art School Class of 2023

You might know the abbreviation SKY for South Korea's top three universities (Seoul National University, Korea University, and Yonsei University), but did you know that there are prestigious arts high schools that many students compete to get into? One of them is Hanlim Multi Art School, an arts high school located in Songpa District in Seoul, South Korea, founded in 1962. 

Alongside the School of Performing Arts Seoul and Lila Art High School, many K-Pop idols have graduated from this prestigious school, and many more are still enrolled. This year, it is reported that the school will be having its 2023 graduation ceremony on February 10. Let's take a look at some of Hanlim's class of 2023 idols who are expected to graduate this year and wish them congratulations! 

BAE 173 - Dohyun & Bit

Dohyun is known as a musical genius and is the group's rapper and maknae, while Bit is the group's vocalist. Both of them are in Hanlim's Applied Music Department and are expected to graduate this year. 

ENHYPEN - Jungwon

ENHYPEN's leader is graduating! Prior to attending Hanlim, he was a student at Namgang High School and is now in Hanlim's Applied Music Department. He is the last member attending Hanlim, after Jay and Sunoo both graduated as the class of 2022. 

MCND - Win

Another Applied Music Department student, Win is the group's rapper and maknae that is expected to graduate with the class of 2023.


Ghost9 - Lee Jinwoo

From being one of the cutest trainees in Produce X 101 to the group's maknae with the most aegyo and cuteness, he is in Hanlim's Practical Dance Department and is expected to graduate. 


DKB - Harryjune

DKB's beloved maknae is also a phenomenal dancer who is in the Practical Dance Department. Not only is he one of K-Pop's 4th gen best dancers, but he is also among the top students in his class and was admitted to the school with the highest honors. Is there anything he can't do? 

Check out his graduation performance below! 



Weeekly - Jihan

Jihan once told a fan that her favorite musicals are ‘Mamma Mia!’ and ‘Chicago’ and this year, she will be graduating from Hanlim's Musical Theatre Department. 


Woo!ah! - Minseo & Lucy

Minseo is in the Applied Music Department, while Lucy is in the Practical Dance Department. Despite being in different departments, it would be so nice to graduate together!

TAN - Kim Jiseong

Unsure which department exactly, but this rookie is majoring in rap and will also be graduating with the class of 2023!


NMIXX - Sullyoon & Bae

Four of NMIXX's members are enrolled in Hanlim, but these two will be the first to graduate. All four of NMIXX's members chose to study in the Broadcasting & Entertainment Department.


8TURN - Kyungmin & Haemin

After celebrating their recent debut, these two get to celebrate graduation too! While it is unknown which department Kyungmin is in, Haemin is in the Video Production Department.

ATBO - Seunghwan

The only other known idol in the Musical Theatre Department is Seunghwan. Prior to attending Hanlim, he went to Daecheon Middle School and Bunpo High School. 

YOUNITE - Sieun

The group's maknae and vocalist, who is in the Filmmaking Department will be joining his fellow classmates in graduating with the class of 2023. 



LIMELIGHT - Suhye

This soon-to-debut idol from Incheon is set to make the 'limelight' and graduate this year as well! 


NewJeans - Minji

Did you know that she was classmates with NMIXX's Sullyoon? Must be nice to be in a class filled with goddesses. I'd be happy to go to school every day if they were my classmates. They were both in the Broadcasting and Entertainment Department. 


LOUD - Lee Gyehun

Lee Gyehun is JYP Entertainment's trainee and member of the set-to-debut group, "LOUD" who is one of the longest trainees in the company. He used to train with Stray Kids and ITZY too! We're anticipating the group's debut! 


KQ Fellaz 2 - Hyunwoo

Another trainee who is set to debut (hopefully soon!), Hyunwoo is a vocalist who is also expected to graduate with the class of 2023.
