Story

Biography

Who Is Yeeun?

Yeeun, born Park Ye-eun (박예은) on May 26, 1989, in Goyang, South Korea, is a South Korean singer, songwriter, and composer who first rose to fame as the leader and main vocalist of the girl group Wonder Girls. If you know the soaring vocals on “Tell Me” or “Nobody,” you already know Yeeun’s voice.

The Only Original Member Who Never Left

Yeeun holds a special place in Wonder Girls history: she is the only member of the original 2007 lineup who stayed with the group from debut all the way through to its disbandment in 2017, without ever going on hiatus. Along the way, she also quietly built a songwriting career, composing tracks like “G.N.O (Girl’s Night Out)” and “Saying I Love You” for her own group.

Becoming HA:TFELT

In 2014, while still promoting with Wonder Girls, Yeeun stepped out as a solo artist under the name HA:TFELT, a playful blend of “hot” and “heartfelt.” Her debut EP, Me?, was praised by Billboard as one of the best K-pop albums of that year. After Wonder Girls disbanded, she signed with Amoeba Culture, becoming the label’s first female solo artist in over a decade, and kept releasing music with a distinctive R&B and jazz-influenced sound.

Beyond Music

Yeeun has also dabbled in acting and reality TV, and she famously disguised herself as a contestant on King of Mask Singer in 2016. She’s spoken openly about her love of tarot cards, her multilingual upbringing, and her parents’ initial hesitation about her joining the K-pop industry.

A Lasting Legacy

From leading one of Korea’s most beloved girl groups to carving out a genre-blending solo career as HA:TFELT, Yeeun’s journey reflects both loyalty to her roots and a constant drive toward artistic reinvention.
