Background
Sihyeon (시현), born Kim Sihyeon (김시현) on August 5, 1999, is a South Korean singer, dancer and television personality best known as the leader and lead vocalist of the K-pop girl group EVERGLOW (에버글로우). Born in Bundang-gu, Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, Sihyeon began pursuing a career in entertainment as a teenager. She first attracted public attention through Mnet's survival competition Produce 101 in 2016, where she competed as an independent trainee and finished in 40th place. After the competition, she joined Yuehua Entertainment and continued developing her singing, dancing and performance skills. She returned to television in 2018 through Produce 48, finishing in 27th place. Although she did not debut through either survival show, her appearances helped establish a fanbase before her official idol debut.
Sihyeon debuted as a member of EVERGLOW on March 18, 2019, with the single album Arrival of Everglow and its title track "Bon Bon Chocolat." She became recognized for her distinctive vocal tone, elegant appearance and expressive performances. Originally serving as one of the group's lead vocalists, Sihyeon took over the leadership position from E in May 2021, during promotions for Last Melody. She subsequently guided EVERGLOW through international tours, periods of reduced activity and significant changes to its lineup. Following the group's departure from Yuehua Entertainment in 2025, Sihyeon joined CHXXTA Company alongside E, Onda and Aisha. The four members continued as EVERGLOW and released their fourth mini album, CODE, on March 3, 2026, marking a new chapter in the group's career.
