Early Life and Education

edit

Yoon Jeonghan was born in Hwaseong, South Korea. He attended Hyangnam High School, graduating in 2014 as a natural science major. He was ranked third in his class. In 2022, he enrolled in a Master's degree at Anyang University.[3]

Career

edit

2012 – 2014: Pre-debut

edit

Jeonghan attended an acting academy in Sadang. While visiting a billiards room near the academy, he was approached by a high-ranking company employee from Pledis who invited Jeonghan to a casting call. After passing auditions, Jeonghan joined Pledis in 2013 and went on to become a Pledis trainee and received training for the next two years.[citation needed]

He became part of Seventeen TV from its third season onward, an online reality series that introduced Pledis' trainees and showcased potential members of the boy group Seventeen before their official debut. The show was broadcast periodically on Ustream, where the trainees showed themselves training, singing, creating choreographies and playing games.[4] The online show also included participation in concerts, titled Like Seventeen.[5][6]

2015 – Present: Seventeen and solo activities

edit

In 2015, Jeonghan debuted as a member of the South Korean boy group Seventeen with the extended play 17 Carat on May 29.[7]

On September 16, 2021, Jeonghan released a digital song named "Dream" in both Korean and Japanese, written and produced by himself and regular Seventeen collaborator Prismfilter.[8]

In 2022, Jeonghan received treatment and underwent surgery for an elbow injury. It was stated that he would continue participating in the group’s scheduled activities, such as Seventeen's Be The Sun world tour while wearing a cast and brace, and would also receive ongoing medical consultations.[9]

In March 2022, Jeonghan released a cover of Japanese musician Mosawo's "Aitai" as a part of Seventeen's ongoing #17Studio series.[10]

In April, Jeonghan was announced as a new presenter of Tokyo FM's School of Lock program, a weekly radio show featuring musicians aiming to "hold the key to the future".[11] He held the role until December 2023, when it was taken over by bandmate Dino.[12]

In 2023, Jeonghan and bandmate Dino were cast in MBC every1's reality show Magic Lamp (요술램프) alongside Kim Jae-joong, Kang Hui, Lee Joo-ahn, Junpi, and Tan.[13] The program aired during September and October that year, and entailed the group travelling together in Montpellier, France.[14]

On December 14, 2023, Pledis announced that Jeonghan underwent ankle surgery and would be absent from their tour and scheduled activities.[15] On February 23, 2024, Pledis announced that Jeonghan's health had recently improved and he would return from his hiatus starting from March onward.[16]

In June 2024, Jeonghan and his groupmate Wonwoo debuted as a new sub-unit under the name Jeonghan X Wonwoo, or JxW, with their first single album This Man in June 2024. The tracklist includes Jeonghan's first commercially released solo track, titled "Beautiful Monster".[17] Achieving commercial success, This Man broke the first-week sales record for an album released by a K-pop sub-unit within four days of its release.[18]

Other ventures

On October 21, 2021, Jeonghan was chosen as the new ambassador for South Korean cosmetics brand Banila Co, in an attempt for the brand to expand into the Japanese markets through his popularity.[19] The business partnership has extended into 2024, with Banila Co using Jeonghan's appearance in "Nana Tour" to continue to promote their products.[20]

On June 3, 2024 Jeonghan was chosen as the new ambassador for Acqua di Parma.[26]

Public image

edit

Jeonghan has earned the nickname "Angel" from media and fans due to his birthday (October 04, or 1004; Korean: 천사; RR: cheonsa) being a homonym in Korean for angel [ko], alongside his "angelic appearance".[27][28][29]

Jeonghan has been noted for his popularity, especially in Japan, frequently landing in the top ten for Japanese rankings of popular celebrities[30][31] and performing well in GP Korea's brand reputation index for idols.[32][33]
