Hanni is the cutest "ttokki" ("Bunny" in Korean) there is in the fourth-gen and is a member of K-pop rookie juggernaut NewJeans. The idol, loved for her charming personality and adorable visuals, celebrated her birthday on October 6.

On her special day, we celebrate the 19-year-old, who has captured everyone's hearts with her presence, talent, and cheerful personality!

Here are 5 fun facts you need to know about NewJeans' cutest baby bunny!

1. Hanni is a dedicated Directioner!

Hanni is one of the most popular fourth-gen idols nowadays. But like most idols in the industry, she's also known for being a fangirl of the English-Irish boy band One Direction!

Fun fact? In her younger years, Hanni was once photographed with a sign during one of One Direction's concerts in 2013. This enthusiasm doesn't stop there, as Hanni also shared with a Bunny (fan of NewJeans) that her bias in the group was Niall Horan. Watch the wholesome clip below:

2. Hanni was a member of the dance cover group AEMINA in 2019

  When it comes to making traction in the music industry, the path varies in many ways. Some trainees sign under an agency voluntarily, while others get scouted. However, for Hanni, she was once a part of the Australian K-pop dance cover group AEMINA in 2019. The idol's videos have been scattered across social media, where her talent was displayed. In the same year (2019), Hanni made her big break and passed the Big Hit Global Audition, leading her to become a trainee in 2020. See more of her videos below as an AEMINA crew member:

3. She was once nicknamed "Cherry" and here's why!

Before debuting in NewJeans, Hanni and Minji made their iconic cameo appearances in BTS's music video for "Permission to Dance," which was released on July 9, 2021. The idol gained buzz for her bubbly vibe, which drew everyone's interest.   However, fans didn't know what her name was at that time, so that led them to give her the nickname "Cherry," a fitting name for an upbeat person like Hanni.

4. Hanni plays the guitar, ukulele, and piano

      Bunnies are fully aware of how consistent Hanni is when it comes to showing off her talent. But the idol still manages to surprise everyone when she does go all out. Apart from her honey vocals, the idol is also known for her talent in playing the guitar, ukelele, and piano, highlighting her as a well-rounded musician!

5. She has many meme-worthy moments on social media!

If you've been following NewJeans on a stan level, then you're already familiar with how chaotic the members are in their content. While all of them are funny in their updates, Hanni also rakes up the spotlight with her random antics!  

Once again, we wish the happiest birthday to Hanni!
