As more K-Pop groups debut, the ages of their members often become a topic of discussion. Each year, the number of underage idols increases, sparking ongoing debates among K-Pop fans. In fact, most recently, fans have expressed concerns about the youngest active idol, UNIS' Seowon, who debuted at just 13 years old.
