How many members are there in SEVENTEEN?

SEVENTEEN has thirteen members. The South Korean boy group’s name is a wordplay on its structure: 13 members, 3 sub-units, and 1 unified team add up to 17.

The group debuted under PLEDIS Entertainment in 2015 with the extended play 17 Carat. Its members are organized into the Hip-Hop, Vocal, and Performance units, while also promoting together as SEVENTEEN. This arrangement lets members specialize while contributing to the group’s larger sound and performances.

The number is easy to mix up because the group is called SEVENTEEN, but the name does not refer to seventeen people. The thirteen members are S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, DK, Mingyu, The8, Seungkwan, Vernon, and Dino. Temporary absences, such as military service or individual schedules, do not change the group’s official membership count.
