Story

Biography

Who Is Jueun of DIA?

Jueun (주은, also romanized Jooeun), born Lee Ju-eun on June 7, 1995, in Suwon, South Korea, is a South Korean idol, singer-songwriter, and actress. She is best known as the main vocalist of the K-pop girl group DIA and, more recently, as a solo artist building her own catalog of releases.

From Trainee to Assistant Manager to Idol

Jueun’s road to DIA was anything but conventional. She first appeared on the public’s radar as a contestant on “K-pop Star 2,” then trained under Polaris Entertainment. After moving to MBK Entertainment, she actually worked behind the scenes as DIA’s assistant manager and as a back-up dancer for boy group UNB before officially becoming a member of DIA herself on April 19, 2017, joining alongside member Somyi and becoming part of the sub-unit L.U.B.

Life as DIA’s Main Vocalist

As DIA’s main vocalist, Jueun brought a clear, emotive tone to the group’s discography while also branching into acting, appearing in web dramas such as “Do Dream” and the Netflix original “My First First Love.” Her multi-instrument talent, she plays violin, guitar, and piano, gave her a broader musical foundation than many of her peers.

Solo Career and Recent Activities

When DIA’s group activities slowed after 2022, Jueun moved quickly into a solo lane. She debuted as a soloist on April 27, 2023, with the digital single “Easy Breezy,” featuring Seo In-guk, under the official fandom name Ju-piter. She followed up with the OST contribution “Kokdu: Season of Deity,” the 2024 single “1,2,3,4” featuring Moon Sujin, and the winter release “Santa, I Have a Wish…” By 2024 she had signed with Brotherhood Entertainment to keep growing her solo discography while still carrying her DIA membership.

Personality and Fun Facts

Fans describe Jueun as easygoing, warm, and quietly hardworking. She keeps two cats, Cozy and Roongzi, favors the color blue, and maintains close friendships with LOONA’s HyunJin and IZ*ONE’s Yena. Her steady rise from behind-the-scenes staffer to recognized solo artist has made her one of DIA’s most inspiring member stories.

The Fandom

Fan Club & Fan Name 💜

Official Fan Name
AID
AID is DIA's official fandom name, formed by reading the group's own name backwards. It represents the loyal supporters who have followed DIA through nine lineup changes since the group's September 2015 debut under MBK Entertainment.
Official Fan Color
AID Blue & DIA Red
DIA's promotional materials paired a bright blue with a bold red. The agency never published official Pantone codes, so these tones are the widely used fan-recognized approximation.
Official Light Stick
Yambong (unofficial fan lightstick)
DIA never released a dedicated concert lightstick. Fans instead adopted a blue-and-white candy-shaped stick nicknamed 'Yambong,' first sold as a temporary item that fans later treated as the group's de facto lightstick at fan meets and music shows.
Fan Community Platform
Daum Fan Cafe (officialdia)
The group's primary fan community hub, where members interacted directly with AID and shared exclusive updates throughout DIA's active years under MBK Entertainment and PocketDol Studio.
