Kevin Kreider Birthday & Family
On August 21, 1983, Kevin Kreider aka Kevin Taejin Kreider (age 40) was born to a Korean family in Seoul, South Korea. When he was three years old, an American lady named Theresa Adams adopted him and brought him to America. He spent his life in Philadelphia in the USA and attended a local school with his brother Luke Kreider.
During his teen years, Kevin was very insecure about his Korean identity, and to deal with the fear of being bullied, he learned martial arts. He also focused on building a model-like physique. After graduating in science from Temple University, he became a fitness coach.
Career
Before making his career in the entertainment industry, Kevin got out of it and took a skateboard trip across America, but at that, he also suffered from Alopecia areata, which is why at that time, Kreider lost his health & hair and was stress-induced to cover up his rock bottom; he turned to alcohol, but when he came home and, he got better to take care of his health, worked out, and went into a recovery program.
In 2014 he came to Los Angeles, and there Kevin met many famous people like Kelly Mi Li, Kane Lim, and Guy Tang. He rented an apartment for $1700/month. After auditioning for a while, he managed to land a role in a 2015 show named “Phantom Faye.” But after his first acting job, he had to wait three years to be on-screen. It was a show called “Kat Loves LA.”
On one hand, he kept his attention on acting, at the same time he was earning a handsome amount as a trainer but was spending even more on his own body. He was recklessly using a credit card too, which was financially unhealthy. After working as a trainer for a few years, he moved to New York, and there he took acting classes at Maggie Flanigan Studio.
In NY, he wanted to try his luck at modeling. He wanted to be like his role model, Godfrey Gao, and Daniel Liu. Because of tight financial conditions, he even did menial jobs. There was a time when his financial debt reached $26000. Luckily he started getting modeling jobs, and for his first modeling assignment, he received $5k, which is not a significant amount for a model in NYC. Still, it was a substantial amount for Kevin.
In 2019, director Doris Yeung cast Kevin in a documentary titled “The Ugly Model,” based on Kreider’s life experience as a Korean in America. The documentary received a positive response. But in 2021, when he appeared in Christine Chiu’s show “Bling Empire,” his career reached another level. People started recognizing him, and he became a star.
After the Netflix reality show, the Korean-American guy registered his appearance in many productions like “Tudum,” “Celebrity Family Feud,” “The Netflix Afterparty,” and “Lorraine.”
Personal Life
During the trailer of the second season of “Bling Empire,” viewers heard him saying that he has feelings for Kim Lee and he will express his love towards her. It happened, and we got to see both of them Kissing. Now it will be interesting to see if they stay together even off-screen.
There is no data about Kevin’s past love relations, but one of the stars in “Bling Empire” said that Kreider had dated many girls. Considering his good looks, it might be possible that he had been in relationships before.
