SM Entertainment trainee Haru of SMTR25 already seems to be gaining significant popularity in China. In just one week, his follower count has increased by 58,000, and today's check-ins alone number 20,000. This check-in figure is the highest among 6th-generation idols, with JJ's check-in count closely trailing behind.

A trainee known as Haru appeared in SM's 30th-anniversary video, earning the nickname 'Bicycle boy'. With visuals described as almost AI-like, Haru has garnered immense attention since his first public appearance.

JJ is a Japanese American who was previously part of HYBE's pre-debut group Trainee A. After the group’s debut was canceled, he reportedly joined SM Entertainment.
