About

Short bio

Yuna (유나) is a South Korean singer and member of ITZY. Discover her age, height, MBTI, birthday, solo debut, acting career, fun facts, and journey from athlete to K-pop star.

Background

Yuna was born in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. Her interest in K-pop began thanks to her older sister, who was a devoted fan of BTOB. While accompanying her sister to the 2015 KBS Song Festival simply as a spectator, Yuna caught the attention of a JYP Entertainment casting manager in the audience and was handed a business card—an unexpected moment that launched her entertainment career. Before becoming a trainee, she was also an accomplished floorball player, competing for about four years and earning Best Player honors at the Gyeonggi-do High School Sportsclub Championship.

Before debuting with ITZY, Yuna appeared alongside BTS member Jungkook in the Love Yourself Highlight Reel, giving her early exposure to K-pop audiences. She later became the final member added to ITZY's lineup following Jeon Somi's departure from JYP Entertainment. Debuting on February 12, 2019, Yuna quickly established herself as one of fourth-generation K-pop's standout visuals while steadily expanding into fashion, content creation, solo music, and acting.

Fan-made pieces inspired by drama nights, bias feelings, and soft delulu moods.
