5urprise (Korean: 서프라이즈; pronounced surprise), was the first ever South Korean actor group and consists of five actors: Yoo Il, Seo Kang-joon, Gong Myung, Kang Tae-oh and Lee Tae-hwan.
The group members were selected through Fantagio's "Actor′s League," a program for discovering aspiring actors, and were trained for two years before making their entertainment debut.
[2] Unlike idol groups which begin their careers as singers and later expand their endeavors to acting, 5urprise did the opposite.
As their first project, they made their acting debut in After School: Lucky or Not, a 12-episode mobile drama with each episode lasting 15 minutes, and viewed through Nate Hoppin, BTV, and T-Store on smartphones and tablet computers.
[5][6] On March 31, 2020, it was announced by Fantagio that all five members have decided to part ways with the company, leaving the group disbanded.
