Park Ji-hoon (Korean: 박지훈; born March 14, 2000) known also by the mononym Jihoon, is a South Korean singer and one of two leaders of Treasure with Choi Hyun-suk under YG Entertainment. He debuted with the band on August 7, 2020, and its single album entitled The First Step: Chapter One.

Life and career

2000–2016: Early life

Park Ji-hoon was born on March 14, 2000, in Nam District, Busan, South Korea as the youngest of two sons.[1][2][3] Albeit he enjoyed singing from a young age, he did not intend to pursue it until he encountered WIN: Who Is Next (2013) in seventh grade of middle school at age 14 (Korean age).[4] It showcased two teams—currently active as Winner and iKon—who competed for their debut under YG Entertainment.[5] Initiating his dream to join and debut under the label, Jihoon was accepted into its trainee program in 2016, following his audition.[2]

2017–present: Debut with Treasure and solo endeavors

Main article: Treasure (band)

Jihoon first appeared on television in Stray Kids (2017) as a representative of his agency with Bang Ye-dam and Doyoung amidst others.[2] In March 2018, his trainee status was revoked due to lack of progress, leading to his departure and training elsewhere.[2][6] He was later invited by YG Entertainment to partake as a contestant on YG Treasure Box (2018–2019) as part of Team B.[7][6] Failing to claim a position in the final septet, he was the fifth to be placed in a second line-up called "Magnum".[6] The septet and sextet were subsequently merged and became the eventual 12-piece band, Treasure.[8] He served as an "unofficial leader" with Choi Hyun-suk in their respective teams amidst training due to its size.[9] With four years of training, his debut in Treasure followed on August 7, 2020, with the single album entitled The First Step: Chapter One.[9] The band adopted the two-tier leadership with Jihoon and Choi after witnessing positive results from the once temporary system.[10]

In the midst of his activities with the band, Jihoon served as a host for Inkigayo with Ahn Yu-jin of Ive and Sungchan of NCT for a tenure lasting between 2021 and 2022.[11] He was cast by the South Korean director Na Young-seok and Ha Moo-sung to appear on their series The Idol Ramyeonators (2022) with Choi Hyun-suk following their guesting on their label's special of The Game Caterers.[12]

Public image

Jihoon debuted on the Gaon Social Chart 2.0, which integrates data from SMR, YouTube, Mubeat, V Live and My Celebs to calibrate a ranking among fifty artists, for the month of October in 2020.[13] He also appeared on the Korean Business Research Institute's male celebrity brand reputation list, a chart that records Korean celebrities with the most online searches and engagements, and reached the top 50 for the month of March in 2021.[14]

Jihoon has cited senior label-mate Big Bang as his musical influence, with member Taeyang captivating most of his focus.[15]
