Choi Yu-na (Korean최유나; born October 4, 1997), better known by her stage name Yuju (Korean유주), is a South Korean singer-songwriter. She is a former member of the South Korean girl group GFriend and is currently active as a soloist.

Early life and education

[edit]

Yuju was born Choi Yu-na on October 4, 1997 in Goyang, South Korea,[1][2] as the youngest of two daughters in her family. From an early age, Yuju enjoyed sports, dancing and singing. In her first year of middle school, Yuju won a singing contest encouragement award without formal training. Afterwards, Yuju attended a vocal academy to pursue singing[3] and learned to play guitar due to her interest in composing.[4] Yuju gained more performance experience in city and provincial competitions since her second year of middle school.[5]

After graduating from the School of Performing Arts Seoul,[6] Yuju enrolled at Sungshin Women's University to study Contemporary Practical Music.[7]

Career

[edit]

2011–2014: Pre-debut

[edit]

In 2011, Yuju competed in the first season of K-pop Star, where she was eliminated in the first round.[8] That same year, Yuju became a trainee at Cube Entertainment, but she left after four months when her vocal project team was cut.[9][10] Yuju then trained for around a year and a half at LOEN Entertainment. During a period of uncertainty after leaving LOEN, Yuju won gold in the solo category of the 2013 Dong-A Student Song Festival, a nationwide[11] competition.[12][13][14] She eventually auditioned for and signed with Source Music in 2014, totaling around three years of training at agencies.[15]

2015–2021: GFriend

[edit]

In January 2015, Yuju made her debut as a member of GFriend with the lead single "Glass Bead" from their extended play (EP) Season of Glass.[16] Her stage name, given by the CEO, signifies the owner of powerful singing ability.[5]

In April 2015, Yuju and Loco released "Spring Is Gone by Chance" for the soundtrack of South Korean television drama A Girl Who Sees Smells.[17] The song placed first on the Music Bank OST chart for ten consecutive weeks,[citation needed] won Best OST at the 2015 Melon Music Awards,[18] and was the fourteenth best-performing single in South Korea that year.[19] An acoustic version of the song was also released.[20] Moreover, "Spring Is Gone by Chance" regularly re-enters domestic music charts in spring, establishing itself as a seasonal song.[21] The soundtrack later achieved 100 million streams and 2.5 million downloads on Gaon.[22]

In July 2015, Yuju drew interest on MBC's King of Mask Singer for her singing prowess as the youngest contestant at the time. Soon after, GFriend released their second single "Me Gustas Tu".[23][24] During the promotions of the song, a fan-taken video of members falling eight times while performing on a slippery stage went viral, gaining international attention. The group was praised for their professionalism, especially Yuju, who suffered a twisted finger during the performance.[25][26][27][28] The event boosted the group's popularity, and Gfriend continued to see commercial success as their next song "Rough" won 15 times on music show programs.[29]

Yuju recorded "Billy & The Brave Guys" for the soundtrack of the animated movie Chicken Hero, which was released on February 18, 2016.[30] In March 2016, she collaborated with Sunyoul of Up10tion for a song called "Cherish".[31]

In October 2017, Yuju and Wheesung were declared as the final winners of SBS' Fantastic Duo 2 stars special, performing their winning piece "Even Thought of Marriage".[32][33] She was the first and only K-pop female idol to win on the said television show's special.[34] Following that, Yuju's collaboration song with Jihoo of IZ titled "Heart Signal" was released.[35]

In June 2018, Yuju released her first solo digital single "Love Rain" featuring Suran.[36]

In May 2021, Yuju became the host and protagonist of web show Yuju is Halli Queen, as the defending champion in Halli Galli.[37] On May 5, Yuju served as MC for the KBS Korean Children's Song Contest.[38] On May 22, Yuju left Source Music upon the end of GFriend's exclusive contract.[39]

2021–present: New agency, solo debut with Rec., and O

[edit]

On September 1, 2021, Yuju signed an exclusive contract with Konnect Entertainment, following GFriend's disbandment and departure from Source Music.[40] On November 24, Yuju released a remake of Jo Sung-mo's "By Your Side", a Lovers in Paris soundtrack hit, as part of the "Cyworld BGM 2021" project.[41]

Yuju debuted as a soloist on January 18, 2022, with the extended play Rec. and its lead single "Play" (놀이).[42] She co-wrote all songs in her first solo EP.[10] In July 2022, music production and publishing company MZMC Inc. Korea shared that Yuju joined the team, having written Yurina Kawaguchi's "Look at Me" Korean version lyrics.[43] On July 28, 2022, she released her second digital single "Evening" featuring rapper Big Naughty.[44] From August to December 2022, Yuju was a fixed radio DJ at KBS Cool FM's Station Z.[45] In December 2022, it was revealed Yuju sang the main theme song for Lotte World's The Magic Match & A Night Full of Dreams, a stage adaptation of "The Little Match Girl".[46]

On February 13, 2023, it was announced Yuju would be releasing her second extended play titled O,[47] alongside the lead single "Without U" on March 7.[48] On August 16, 2023, Yuju released the single "Rewind" as part of the +memory project.[49] On September 8, 2023, it was announced that Yuju would be releasing her new single "Dalala" on September 20.[50] Yuju decided not to renew her contract with Konnect after it expired mid-April 2024.[51] In late 2024, Yuju became a mentor for the Korean-Taiwanese boy group survival program Scool.[52]
