Lee Sang Min

Name: Lee Sang Min
Native name: 이상민

Born: January 18, 2002
Age: 24

Lee Sang Min, formerly known as Khael, is a South Korean singer, dancer and former member of MIRAE (미래소년). He graduated from Sangdong High School and he was a trainee at DSP since 2016.

He entered the survival show "Under Nineteen" and finished among the Top-20 so he could have debuted with the show's project group 1THE9, but ultimately did not. At the end of 2019, he had a solo concert under the stage name HXINXATXA and briefly appeared in APRIL‘s Japan 2nd single “Oh-e-oh” MV.

He finally made his debut in March 2021 as MIRAE's main rapper, sub-vocalist, lead dancer, producer and visual with their 1st EP "Killa". They enjoyed some success but their agency, DSP Media (DSP미디어), faced criticism for not promoting the group more effectively.

They debuted in Japan in February 2024 with their mini-album, "Running Up" but, unfortunately, DSP Media announced the group's disbandment in July 2024.
