Early life and education

[edit]

Jaehyun was born on February 14, 1997, in Seocho District, Seoul, South Korea.[6][7] Although he was born Jeong Jae-hyun (정재현), he later legally changed his name to Jeong Yun-o (정윤오).[8] At the age of five, Jaehyun moved to Connecticut, USA with his parents, where he went by the English name Jay Jeong.[9] As a result, he is fluent in both English and Korean. He revealed that while studying in Connecticut, he was the only Asian student at school.[10][11] Jaehyun returned to South Korea at the age of ten, and said that he struggled adapting to Korean culture.[11]

Jaehyun trained in Taekwondo and received a Black belt.[12] He later became interested in music at a young age due to his parents' influence; he learned to play the guitar and the piano, and later began singing during middle school. His grandmother, a retired professional dancer, was also his guide during dance training.[10] He was also inspired to pursue music by his elementary school teacher, Lee Eun-yeol.[11] Jaehyun attended Shindong Middle School and Apgujeong High School, and later transferred to the School of Performing Arts Seoul in his second year of high school and graduated in 2016.[13][14] He used to be a student council president.[10]

On November 2, 2021, Jaehyun was confirmed to star in a KakaoTV web series, a remake of the 2001 South Korean film Bungee Jumping of Their Own, playing the leading role of Im Hyun-bin.[29] On December 9 of the same year, during pre-production, KakaoTV announced the cancellation of the project due to concerns regarding the LGBT plot from the original film's screenwriter.[30]

[edit]

Endorsements

[edit]

Following various successful collaborations with Prada, Jaehyun was selected as a global ambassador in June 2022, citing his influence and unique fashion style as a reason.[48][4] In 2023, he modeled for Prada's SS23 campaign, making him the first Korean celebrity to be chosen as a model for the brand's main global campaign.[49] Photographed by David Sims, the campaign draws "upon the characteristics of classic Hollywood and European movies - their images are frames within divergent stories, glimpses of an unseen narrative and an unknown script, a tension again between different views, of different lives" and features Jaehyun alongside actors Vincent Cassel, Louis Partridge, Hunter Schafer, and Letitia Wright and models Guinevere van Seenus and Rachel Williams.[50]

Multiple publications named Jaehyun as one of the most influential fashion brand ambassadors from South Korea, noting Prada's increase in purchases, popularity, and online topicality following Jaehyun's appointment as a global ambassador in June 2022.[51][4][5]
