I think it’s because of how authentic we are. We don’t try to be someone we’re not. We always try to keep it real.” “We all come from different places and have different personalities that our fans can resonate with,” Drew added. “We all have a different story to share, and our fans grow and learn from us each.” Last year, Drew, Gabi, Kauê, Alejandro and Kenneth became HYBE’s first all-male Latin group. HYBE is known for forming successful groups including K-pop giants BTS and girl pop group KATSEYE.
