Choi Yeon-jun (Hangul: 최연준; born September 13, 1999), known mononymously as Yeonjun, is a South Korean singer-songwriter. He is a member of the South Korean boy group Tomorrow X Together. He will debut as a soloist in September 2024.

Early life[edit]

Yeonjun was born on September 13, 1999, in Seongbuk District, Seoul, South Korea as the only child of his family.[1] After graduating from Korean Arts High School, he enrolled in Global Cyber University.[2]

Career[edit]

Pre-debut[edit]

Prior to his debut, he trained under Big Hit Entertainment for four years.[3][4] Throughout his four years of training, Yeonjun became known as the company's "legendary trainee" because he consistently ranked first during monthly evaluations in dance, vocal performance and rap.[5][6][7] He is also a former trainee of Cube Entertainment.[8][9]

2019–present: Debut with TXT and solo activities[edit]

On January 10, 2019, Big Hit announced the upcoming debut of its new boy group Tomorrow X Together. Yeonjun was the first member of the lineup to be revealed, through an introductory video posted on the label's official YouTube channel and social media.[10] The introductory video exceeded 5 million views within 10 hours of its release.[11] He officially debuted as part of the quintet on March 4, with the release of their first extended play (EP), The Dream Chapter: Star.[12]

On January 12, 2021, Yeonjun made his acting debut with a cameo appearance in the JTBC drama series Live On as Kim Jin-woo.[13] The following month, he participated in 2021 Fall/Winter New York Fashion Week, walking as a model for the South Korean brand UL:KIN.[14] In October, he featured on the track "Blockbuster" from Enhypen's first studio album Dimension: Dilemma released on the 12th.[15][16]

In February 2022, Yeonjun featured on the single "PS5" by American singer-songwriter Salem Ilese, alongside bandmate Taehyun and Norwegian DJ Alan Walker.[17] He was announced as one of the new hosts for Inkigayo, alongside actors Roh Jeong-eui and Seo Bum-june, on March 15.[18] In July, Yeonjun became an ambassador for the streetwear brand Privé Alliance. He also served as a guest creative designer and released a limited capsule collection available the following month until December.[19] On November 22, it was announced that Yeonjun will host the year-end SBS Gayo Daejeon festival with Key and An Yu-jin which will be held on December 25.

2024: Solo debut[edit]

On September 6, 2024, Big Hit announced that Yeonjun is scheduled to make his solo debut later that month.[20]

Public image[edit]

Yeonjun has appeared on the Korean Business Research Institute's male celebrity brand reputation list, a chart that records Korean celebrities with the most online searches and engagements, and reached the top 20 for the month of November in 2020[21] and top 30 for the month of February and March in 2023.[22][23]

Other ventures[edit]

Yeonjun has appeared in magazines including Dazed Korea, GQ Korea,[24] W Korea,[25] Elle Korea[26] and Paper Magazine.[27] He has also appeared on the cover of the special edition of the September issue of the Japanese fashion magazine 'SPUR'.[28] On May 31, 2024, Yeonjun was announced as the Global Brand Ambassador of the Italian luxury fashion house Moncler.[29]
