Star News during his interview on the 22nd, "I changed my name about a month ago... My parents are the type to frequently go get their fortune told, and they suggested that I change my name."

Dabin is out from this group, then Sunwoo replace him..... =)

He changed his name because of what a fortune teller said?! I have nothing against changing one\'s name per se, but that has go to to be the most stupid reason for it ever.

It\'s weird to me. Name is a part of my identity and I would never consider changing it. I guess South Koreans have a lesser bond to their names?

Is he the dabin that\'s really good friends with Rome from c-clown??

But still cute tho,i mean it looks new coz we know a lot of kpop guys have a small eyes so I think he\'s eyes are beautiful..^.^

Dalbin is actually a unique name in Korean -- there are so many "Sunwoo"s in Korea, LOL just like all the "Hyuk"s

I am really fascinated by Koreans changing their names based on fortune telling and all that. It\'s very interesting. Anyway, I\'m excited for their comeback! Finally!

Dabin sounds like dustbin , It\'s great he changed it

it seems his parents thinks that changing his name will change his fortune. but i dont think many ppl know who is Boys republic yet and when did they debut?

They made their debut on June 5, 2013 with Party Rock ^^

@bestiebunny Well hopefully it bring good fortune for his group as well. ^^

Dabin is much prettier name tho...but hey,Koreans and their cray cray fortune telling name changes,lol.
