1. Felix Lee’s Family: Who’s in it?

 

Felix was born in Australia to Korean parents, making him a Korean-Australian. His family reportedly consists of his father, mother, two older sisters, and himself, making it a family of five.

 

Despite his Western features—freckles, strong T-zone, and deep-set eyes—Felix is not mixed-race. His parents are both ethnically Korean, though fans often assume otherwise due to his unique visuals.

 

 

 

 

2. Why Fans Rarely Hear About His Dad

 

This is a hot topic among fans: Felix frequently talks about his mom but rarely mentions his dad. Some STAYs even assumed he might not be close to him.

 

However, this may simply be due to privacy reasons or editing in broadcasts, and does not indicate a strained relationship. In fact, past interviews prove otherwise.

 

 

 

 

3. The Hidden Mentions: What We Know About His Father

Yes, Felix has talked about his dad—just not often. In a V LIVE, Felix once shared that his father chose his name, "Felix," because it means "happiness." He also talked about receiving gifts from his dad and staying in touch regularly.

 

In an interview with GQ Korea, Felix shared a touching moment before he left for Seoul:

 

“My father said at the airport, ‘You always have a home. You have a family here, so you can come back anytime.’”

 

Clearly, Felix and his dad share a meaningful connection.

 

 

 

 

4. Felix’s Unbreakable Bond With His Mother

 

Unlike his dad, Felix frequently mentions his mom. He once said the first thing he does in the morning is check for texts from his mom. In Kingdom Week, he even called his mom live to get in touch with another member’s mom. Their bond is visibly strong, and fans love seeing how lovingly he talks about her.

 

 

 

 

5. Is He Mixed? The Truth About Felix’s Visuals

 

Felix’s exotic looks have fueled years of “Is he mixed?” speculation.

But professionals, including plastic surgeons, have confirmed:

 

"Felix has an unusually high nose bridge and strong brow bones, which give off a foreign impression. But he is not of mixed descent."

 

He is simply a unique beauty born to two Korean parents.

 

 

 

 

6. Childhood Memories & Parents’ Social Media

Despite asking his Australian friends not to upload photos of him online, they happily ignored him (in the sweetest way), and many childhood photos of Felix exist online today.

 

According to fans, his parents’ private Instagram accounts are full of his childhood pictures—though these are not publicly shared for privacy reasons.

 

 

 

 

7. Angelic Personality? It All Starts at Home

Felix’s fans call him a "brownie fairy" for a reason—he loves cooking and often gifts his baked goods to staff and members.

 

 

He once baked and gifted over 200 cookies during the Kingdom finale, just to say thank you.

 

On his birthday, he even became a monthly donor to Save the Children, saying:

 

"I think I’ve realized what true happiness is."

 

His members describe him as a literal angel, and it’s easy to see that his family raised him with deep values and empathy.

 

 

 

 

8. Final Thoughts: Felix’s Family Built His Heart

 

 

While Felix may talk more about his mom, it’s clear that both his parents have played important roles in shaping who he is.

 

Whether it’s his dad’s meaningful words, his mom’s daily texts, or his sisters' quiet support, Felix Lee is a product of love, stability, and strength. Next time you see Felix’s smile on stage, remember: behind that joy is a family who made it all possible.
