Paul Ahn, known by his Korean name Ahn Hyo Seop, is a Canadian actor and model. He was born in South Korea, but his family emigrated to Toronto, Canada, when he was 7 and spent 10 years living there. He graduated from Cheongdam High School but later dropped out of the International Business Program at Kookmin University. While in middle school, he was scouted by JYP Entertainment and later became a trainee. He had the opportunity to debut as a member of GOT7, but he ultimately turned down the offer and left the company to pursue other endeavours. After switching agencies, Starhaus Entertainment (스타하우스 엔터테인먼트) decided to launch a project group called ONE O ONE (원오원) made up of 4 actors (Kwak Shi Yang, Kwon Do Kyun, Go Wook and him). They debuted in October 2015 with the digital single "Love You" and released a few more singles until going inactive in mid-2017. He made his TV debut in the 2015 tvN show "Always Cantare Season 2" (바흐를 꿈꾸며 언제나 칸타레 2) and as an actor, he debuted the same year with a role in the MBC drama "Splash Splash Love" (퐁당퐁당 LOVE). In May 2022, he left Starhaus and announced the creation of his own agency, The Present. He is the co-CEO alongside his long-time manager.
