With a day of intervals, this february 8th, a member celebrates his 26th birthday: SONG!
SONG is the secondary singer of IKON which he joined in 2015 after the show « Mix and Match » being the fifth member to be officially announced in the group. Of course, the path that the young man had initially taken was very far from being that of a singer.
Born in 1995 in a family composed of his two parents joined a few years later by the arrival of a younger sister, he was born in Hanam, a city in the province of Gyeonggi. His younger sister SONG EUNJIN is known to be an ulzzang, meaning that she is a personality known for her beauty evolving mainly on the Internet.
The idol could never have foreseen a future in music having initially studied to become an actor, joining YG ENTERTAINMENT in April 2012 to follow his path and although he said that he had no basis in dancing or singing, he was drawn into and seized the opportunity to change his perspective on his future when the director suggested it to him.
This is how we see him for the first time in 2013, in the program to found the new group « WINNER » and then in 2014 in « Mix and Match » which later included IKON.
In 2016, he was the muse of NIVEA for a year because YUNHYEONG was doing a remarkable promotion for the cherry lip balms that he keeps preciously for a long time.
Apparently, even the fansites would have had some surprises by the brand but this is only a rumor.
Then he was in the news at the beginning of 2019 when paparazzi revealed that he was in a relationship with another idol, DAISY, a member of the girls band MOMOLAND.
The respective agencies of the two people had given very different answers, MLD ENTERTAINMENT confirming that they had been in a relationship for three months at the moment, while the company YG ENTERTAINMENT certified that despite a common attraction, they were not a couple.
And in April of the same year, YUNHYEONG released a youtube channel on which he shared his passion for cooking.
With a pun with the famous MICHELIN guide, YUNHYEONG is still very active, sometimes involving members or even fans!
