Meet the RESCENE members
WONI
Woni was born on May 25, 2004. She is RESCENE's leader and oldest member. Her hometown is Geoje, a city on the southern coast of South Korea. She launched a personal YouTube channel in February 2026, and its informal comedy and lifestyle videos became a major way for new viewers to discover the group.
LIV
Liv was born on October 11, 2006, making her the second-oldest member. She is from Suwon. In June 2026, RESCENE was appointed a promotional ambassador for the city, with local coverage highlighting Liv's connection to Suwon.
MINAMI
Minami was born on November 29, 2006, seven weeks after Liv. She is Japanese and the only non-Korean member of RESCENE. Before debuting, she appeared on MBC's survival show My Teenage Girl. She later became central to the group's 2026 breakthrough when a clip of her shouting 'Geoje yaho!' on Woni's channel spread across Korean social media.
MAY
May was born on August 19, 2008. She is from Goyang, northwest of Seoul. The city appointed RESCENE honorary ambassadors in July 2026 and identified May's hometown connection as the reason for the partnership.
ZENA
Zena was born on November 27, 2008. She is the youngest member, or maknae, and is about three months younger than May. Zena is from Gyeongju, and the city appointed RESCENE tourism ambassadors in June 2026.
RESCENE's debut, agency, and name
RESCENE debuted under The Muze Entertainment on March 26, 2024, with the single album Re:Scene and its title track 'UhUh.' The pre-release single 'YoYo' arrived on February 29. RESCENE was the agency's first girl group.
The name combines the prefix 're-' with 'scene' and 'scent.' It reflects the idea that a scent can bring a scene or memory back to mind. The official fandom name, REMINE, is an altered form of 'remind' and also combines RESCENE with 'mine.'
Why RESCENE broke through in 2026
RESCENE's wider breakthrough came in 2026 through Woni's YouTube channel. In a video uploaded on March 20, Minami appeared in a gyaru-inspired look and shouted 'Geoje yaho!' The phrase became a short-form meme and drew attention back to the group's music.
That attention helped the 2024 song 'Love Attack' return to Melon's Top 100 at No. 98 on May 28, 2026. It then reached No. 1 at 10 p.m. on July 8. Mnet even brought the group back to M Countdown on June 18 for a special performance long after the song's original promotions had ended.
This section is useful context for readers discovering RESCENE in 2026, but the member profiles remain the main focus of this guide.
