Oh Sehun was born on April 12, 1994 in Seoul. He’s the youngest of his family, composed of his mother, fatherand a brother who is three years older than him.
His early life is mostly a mystery, informations being sparse and not much (kid was probably smart enough to hide everything (∩▂∩)). From what we have gathered, Sehun was just a normal kid who got blessed with good looks from an early stage. Indeed, he was adorable as a toddler and better looking than most during his elementary school days. His teacher back then even said he was really pretty like a girl. ♡^▽^♡
Sehun was a lively kid who was acknowledged by the same teacher as the class clown. He also stated in his old diary than he liked to play pranks and smiling (but then he also mentioned having 3 personalities and did shown early signs of the stiff lips syndrome. Definitely a mystery.)
Sehun was first scouted on the street when he was in the 6th grade.
“One day when I was in primary school year 6, I was eating ddeokbokki with my friends on the street, a representative noona gave me a card asking me if I wanted to audition, at the time I was very young and surprised, and my mum always told me that if I came across a weird person I should run away, so I didn’t think of it and left. That noona chased me for 30 minutes, after I understood what was going on, I went to audition.” (*)
After four auditions in 2 years, he became a SM trainee in 2008. He was in his second year of junior high (*) and either aged 13 or 14 at the time.
His pre debut life consisted mostly of training and living the life of a regular school student… not. He was anexceptionally and painfully good looking student who was lucky to escape the awkward teenager phase. You see, Oh Sehun is rumoured to have been an uhljjang in the past. (He was embarrassing.)
Unfortunately though, Sehun has a bit of regrets regarding his school life. On the matter he expressed:
“Even though I just graduated in February, I still cannot believe that I have already graduated from high school, because I have to train every day, I usually don’t have a lot of time to interact with my classmates, so I really do feel reluctant letting it go. Whenever I remember that I will not be able to return to school, I will miss my teachers, classmates, miss the days of eating ddeokbokki at the street side with my classmates after school.”(*)
“I didn’t really know what a celebrity was or what a celebrity did. My interests in becoming a singer, however, later developed into a passion after only the first day of training.”

Contrary to some EXO’s members, Sehun didn’t dream of being an idol and didn’t consider it as a career before being scouted. While he did mention at an early age that he liked listening to music, he actually aspired to be president (you cutie).
The very shy Sehun who always covers his face started to get more into dance after hearing his dance trainers’ say “You are talented. Try doing it well”. (*)
