Maple syrup and moose aren’t the only things Canada’s known for.

Tons of K-Pop groups have English-speaking members, and many of them are either American or lived in the USA for a time.

1. NCT’s Mark

Born and raised in Toronto, Mark of NCT is one of the only idols on this list who was actually born in Canada instead of Korea!
