About Mingyu & Vernon
The Mingyu and Vernon fan pairing brings together two of SEVENTEEN's most visually prominent members: Kim Mingyu (rapper and visual) and Vernon (Chwe Hansol, rapper and the group's Korean-American member). Both are part of SEVENTEEN's Hip-Hop Unit alongside S.Coups and Wonwoo, giving them shared stage time and collaborative creative space within the group's rapper line. Fan communities have compiled funny and affectionate moments between Mingyu and Vernon across SEVENTEEN's variety content, particularly Going Seventeen episodes, where their height contrast and complementary personalities create fan-beloved interactions. Compilations titled 'Vernon and Mingyu funny moments' circulate actively on TikTok among Carats.

The Mingyu and Vernon pairing has an active fan following that celebrates their comedic chemistry and shared Hip-Hop Unit identity.
