K-Pop groups that have non-Korean members

misc.
1. GOT7
The cutie mascots of JYP Entertainment actually contain some diversity in their group! With Jackson and Mark hailing from China, member BamBam was born in Thailand. Fun fact - Mark is Chinese but was raised in the U.S.
2. Cross Gene
Casper is the suave, ghostly member from China and Takuya is the cool, calm and collected member from Japan. Quite the combo!
3. Cosmic Girls
The Cosmic Girls are a worldly group with three of the members hailing from China! Cheng Xiao is one of the most popular members. They also have members Xuan Yi & Mei Qi.
4. IOI
IOI's Jeon So Mi was known for being the mixed beauty of the group as she is part Korean and part Dutch-Canadian. It's a shame that they disbanded - still so sad!
5. Seventeen
The handsome boys of Seventeen have a lot of different backgrounds among the members. The8 and Jun were born in China while Vernon is half-Korean and was raised in the states.
6. 2PM
2PM's Nichkhun is actually Thai-American and is a pro at switching between English, Thai, and Korean in a heartbeat.
7. SKARF
SKARF was another group that showcased some unique diversity as their members had various ethnic backgrounds. Tasha and Ferlyn came from Singapore while Hana hailed from Japan.
8. TWICE
The lovely ladies of TWICE also boast some foreign members with Tzuyu being born in Taiwan and members Momo, Mina, and Sana coming from Japan.
9. EXO
Everyone knows EXO offered a lot of variety due to their (past and present) Chinese members. Lay is the only remaining Chinese member, while Tao, Luhan, and Kris have since left the group.
10. Super Junior
Super Junior M member Zhoumi is quite the stud from China. He is still active with the sub-unit and often works on their translated pieces. But don't forget Henry - he is Canadian, with his father born in Hong Kong and mother from Taiwan. Chinese member Hangeng also left the group.
11. miss A
Fei and Jia both hail from China and are a huge reason the group has garnered a huge following in the country.
12. BP RaNia
BP RaNia's beautiful pearl is none other than Alex. Alex hails from the United States and even though there were some issues, it appears she has a bright future.
13. TimeZ
The boy group rocked the stage as they came ready to take over China/Korea with members GuangXi, Kee, Tenni, and June.
14. f(x)
f(x)'s Victoria is another idol to hail from China and Amber is actually born and raised in the states by her Taiwanese parents. Another beautiful combo!
15. CLC
CLC's dark makeup wearing member Sorn is actually from Thailand while Elkie is from China.
