June 29, 2021 by posbdwer

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The Korean entertainment industry is full of talent in every category, from singing and dancing all the way to acting. Better yet, these talented people often hail from the same family - to be precise, they happen to be siblings. You'd think that sibling rivalry might take place, but all we see is a couple of supportive brothers and sisters who encourage each other to thrive in their respective careers.

Without further ado, here is a rich selection bringing together a handful of Korean idols who have shared the spotlight with their siblings.

Zico and Woo Taewoon

The Woo brothers share both affinity and talent when it comes to rapping, composing, and producing. Zico - birth name Woo Ji Ho has been in the spotlight for a decade now. He debuted in 2011 as Block B's leader all while launching his solo career in parallel, which he continued independently after leaving his label to start his own company. Similarly, Taewoon - birth name Woo Ji Seok also kickstarted his career as a member of Coed school in 2010 and as the leader of boy group SPEED in 2012, only to leave in order to pursue a solo act. As of 2015, he joined MillionMarket as a music producer under the monicker ₩uNo.

TWICE's Jeongyeon and Gong Seung Yeon

The two sisters have different yet equally thriving careers. Jeongyeon became an idol in 2015 when she joined TWICE, which rose in popularity shortly following their debut, and the group's fame has been maintained to this day. Meanwhile, her older sister Gong Seung Yeon witnessed her career skyrocket in 2015 as well after debuting as an actress back in 2012.
