Onew came from a medium-high class family at Gyeonggi-do. His family owns a meat shop, and owning a meat shop in Korea means that your family is pretty wealthy, because meat in Korea is the most expensive food.

Onew was being very supportive by his family on his way of becoming a singer. However he didn't want to become a singer at first. He only changed his mind when he's at grade 9, so he studied at SM Academy, and later being casted to join SM trainees system. Finally, he debut as the leader of SHINee.

He is known as a very gentle, nice and well-mannered person, as his personality is very soft and very love-able by anyone who gets a chance to know him. However he is sometimes acts very very silly and dorky, and people refer those actions as "Onew sangtae". He's also a smart kid, as he became the #2 best student in high school.

Onew is a very nice leader to SHINee boys, as he never yells at them, or forces them to do anything. He wants to be the leader who can listen and support well. If he has any sad things or facing problems, he would rather keep it to himself to not worry the members. And if the members have any problems, he's the one the members and lean onto.
