XngHan&Xoul
Hong Seung-han (Korean: 홍승한; born October 2, 2003), known mononymously as Seunghan, is a South Korean singer. He is a former member of the South Korean boy band Riize, debuting under SM Entertainment in 2023. He debuted as a soloist in July 2025 with the release of Waste No Time under the stage name XngHan.
First introduced in July 2022 as a member of SM Entertainment's idol training team SM Rookies, Seunghan debuted in September 2023 as a member of Riize. Amid leaks and criticism regarding his personal life, Seunghan took a hiatus from the band beginning in November 2023, briefly returning in October 2024 only to withdraw permanently two days later amid backlash from a subset of the band's fans.
The circumstances surrounding Seunghan's exit from Riize sparked controversy, with many criticizing what they perceived to be a toxic cancel culture mentality among South Korean fans, and bringing commentary on the cultural expectations of idols, particularly as K-pop agencies attempt to target international audiences.
