Hsu Ming-chieh was born in Taipei, Taiwan on 12 May 1993. His mother, Hsu Xianji, is an opera singer.[2] He attended and graduated from Taipei City University of Science and Technology. Hsu debuted as a singer in 2012, after being scouted on the street with his friend Sam Lin, and became one of the four founding members of the boyband SpeXial, alongside Wes, Wayne, and Sam.[1] Later that year, Huang debuted as an actor with a main role in the drama KO One Return.
