Before debuting as a member of Seventeen, Jun was a child actor who starred in multiple films including The Pye Dog (2006), for which he won the Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild's Best New Actor Silver Award, and The Legend Is Born: Ip Man (2010).[1][2]

Early life

Wen Junhui was born on June 10, 1996, in Shenzhen.[2] He has a younger brother named Fengjun who is ten years younger than him. As a child, Jun began starring in commercials at the age of two and worked as a child actor on TV shows and movies in Hong Kong and Mainland China.[citation needed]

Career

Early career and debut

In October 2012, Jun moved to South Korea to undergo training under Pledis Entertainment. From 2013 to 2015, he appeared on Seventeen TV and Seventeen Project: Big Debut Plan as a trainee alongside the future members of his band. He debuted as a member of Seventeen on 26 May 2015 under the stage name Jun. The group's first EP 17 Carat was released three days later, on May 29, 2015.[3]

In 2018, Jun and group member The8 participated in the Chinese music reality show Chao Yin Zhan Ji (潮音战纪).[4] Jun won the first solo stage competition on the show with his performance of Wo Ming Bai (我明白), a Chinese cover of Seventeen's Thanks.[5] He wrote the Chinese lyrics for the cover.[6] From October to December 2018, he co-hosted the Chinese music ranking show called YO! BANG (由你音乐榜样).[7]

Solo Music

Jun released his first solo song, and the special single album Can You Sit By My Side (能不能坐在我身边), which he co-wrote, on December 14, 2018.[8][9] In 2020, he participated in the soundtrack of The King: Eternal Monarch with the song "Dream".[10]

On 5 February 2021, Jun released his single "Crow" (乌鸦), which debuted on and later repackaged it into his second single Silent Boarding Gate (寂寞号登机口) released on February, 14.[11] His single "Crow" made its mark on the Billboard World Digital Songs Sales chart after less than one week of its release, marking Jun's debut as a solo artist on the Billboard charts.[12]

On 23 September 2022, Jun released his digital single "Limbo" with 2 versions in Korean and Chinese.[13] In China, he sold 29,000 copies of the digital album containing both tracks on Tencent/QQ Music within the first week of release.[14] The Korean version peaked at 26 on the Bugs Real-Time chart and became his first song to chart on the platform.[15] On Melon, the track entered the daily chart for September 23 at 723, an improvement from Crow which had ranked at 948.[16][17] On the Melon latest 24h (1 week) chart, Limbo Korean Ver peaked at 14.[18]

Acting

Jun's acting career started at the age of two when he was cast in a commercial.[19] He has appeared in numerous television series, including Flying Dragon – the Special Unit (特警飞龙) at the age of five.[2] He made his film debut in 2006 in The Pye Dog [zh], for which he won the Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild's Best New Performer Silver Award and was nominated for the Best New Performer Award of the 27th Hong Kong Film Awards.[20] In 2010, he played the young Ip Man in The Legend Is Born: Ip Man.[citation needed]

In 2014, he was cast in the Chinese web drama Intouchable.[21][unreliable source?] He filmed a music video for the NetEase mobile game A Dream of Jianghu in July 2019.[22][unreliable source?] In October 2021, in Wuxi, China, he began filming for the Chinese web drama Exclusive Fairytale.[23] He plays the male lead role of Ling Chao.

Personal life

Jun learned wushu as a child and participated in competitions. Jun suffered an injury at a young age that caused him to have spinal tuberculosis.[24] He also plays the piano and has performed arrangements of Seventeen's songs.[25]

His looks have garnered him the nicknames of "The Miracle of Mainland" (大陸の奇跡) in Japan and "Big Beautiful" (大漂亮) in China.[26][27] He is also known to fans as the "Little Prince of Shenzhen Subway" (深圳地铁小王子) because a promotional ad he filmed for the Shenzhen Metro in middle school is still being aired on certain trains.[28]
