Personality Contrary to his chic appearance, Minjun is just like an overgrown toddler, full of excitement and enthusiasm. He tries to hide this side of him but he easily forgets that he is supposed to be a mature twenty seven year old man when he gets a little too comfortable with the people he is with. He likes to dote on his younger siblings which comes off as annoying as he is so extra especially with the skinship. He likes to hug and kiss them even if most of the time he gets rejected. He can be full of wisdom at times but most of the time he just goes after whatever catches his fancy to the point of obsession. He is very artistic and fashion oriented. He is aware of how ridiculously handsome he is but he doesn't really mind all the stares he get when walking down the streets. He is mostly concerned about chasing his own happiness. He is very affectionate towards the people around him which makes him seem like a flirt whether it be to girls or boys. He is the quintessential "Is he gay or European?" kind of guy.
Background Born in Korea to a wealthy family, Minjun moved to France with his mother and continued to study there until he finished his degree. His major was visual art and does mostly painting and a little of fashion design. His minor was music which is why he had a little background in singing even if he had no formal training as an idol. He moved back to Korea four years ago to be with his father and siblings. Prior to deciding on becoming an idol, he was working as a stage costume designer for idols and a freelance visual artist.

Relations
— Sister / Hwang Minha / 24/ confident and ambitious / Model / Minjun is overprotective of Minha because she is the only girl among them Hwang siblings.

— Friend / Kim Won Joong / 30 / A bit of a tsundere. Acts cold but is actually a funny guy./ Model / Won is the only person who gets Minjun's weird personality and humor. They are very similar in such a way that they have this cool guy persona towards other people but when it's just them they act like such dorks.

— Friend / Lim SungBin a.k.a. Beenzino / 29 / Laid back and dun loving but also very mature. / Rapper / They met through Kim Won Joong who was their commin friend.

What was your reason for joining produce 101? Honestly, I was getting a little bored so I wanted to do something to challenge myself. I have been working with idols, designing their clothes so it inspired me in a way. Also, my brother and my sister were joining. I want to keep a close eye on them. My little sister is very very pretty and there are a lot of guys here. You know what I mean?
What was your main focus when training? vocal? dance? rap? I never really had any training. But I have been singing all of my life.
What class are you expecting to enter in the first episode? Since I don't have any training, I'd be happy if I get into D class at least.
What do you think your final rank will be? I was pretty popular back in college. If that is any indication, I think I might at least get into the top 35? That's pushing it though.
Do you think you'll be able to make it to the final group? if so, why? I hope so. Hmmm... Why should I make it to the final group? People might see me as a leader material? A dependable oppa/hyung?
What do you think sets you apart from the other trainees on the show? I guess my age is the main thing that sets me apart. I am a little old compared to a lot of the idols these days. But that could be my appeal too. Also, I think I have the international appeal.
What song do you plan to perform for your first evaluation in front of the judges? Truthfully, this has been bothering me for quite a while. I was told, I was supposed to do an idol song. But all the idol songs I know are girl group songs. What do I do? Hmmmm... I just wanted to sing I Miss You by Kim Bum Soo. But if they ask me to dance, I've been studying Shinhwa's This Love.
Are there any final things you would like to say? National Producer's, please vote for me and my cute brother and sister. I will make sure that there will never be a dull moment. Should I do an aegyo too? Ang~~~
Comments Sorry for being late. I made an app because my best friend bugged me to.
Scene requests Minjun just being a diva and dancing to girl group songs. Eventual destruction of his manly image that one ever bought.
