Dear Alice (디어 앨리스) is an upcoming British boy group under Moon&Back Media and K-pop mega idol creator, SM Entertainment. The group consists of James, Dexter, Reese, Olly, and Blaise. The upcoming BBC One show Made in Korea will show the process behind the group’s formation. (Check out my other articles on Dear Alice and BBC's Made in Korea).


With the band being new and sadly, because the TV show has not yet been released it has been hard to gain a clear understanding of the members and group. However with some dedicated research, I have managed to find out some details about each member in order for Dojeon readers to start to get to know the band! Having read some of their BIO's I have to say I am even more excited for the launch of the band and the behind the scenes training video and creation of the band on BBC. Call me bias but BBC documentary's are also really interesting and informative.


Heading to South Korea, Dear Alice will be plunged into K-pop culture and subjected to SM Entertainment's top-tier K-pop training process for 100 days. With intensive choreography, vocal and performance lessons, life coaching techniques, alongside an immersion into all aspects of Korean life in beautiful Seoul, the group will be put through their paces.


Of course being named to be the next One Direction, Dear Alice recently went onto the UK's most watched morning TV show This Morning for an interview. Let's check it out!





Without further ado, here at Dojeon Media since our last article we have delved deeper into the band members, and have some new, fun and exciting information about the boys as well as some new photos!

Be sure to follow the band on Social Media:



With the members being similar ages, and having similar backgrounds I think from what we know so far, they should already have great chemistry and get positioning in the band. The BBC show once it's released I hope will give us a better understanding of the group and I am really excited and interested to hear some of their music!


If you are based in the UK or even overseas, tune in to BBC One and iPlayer to catch all the behind-the-scenes action and see if Dear Alice can conquer the K-pop world!
