Han Yu-jin

Han Yu-jin (한유진) is the youngest member of ZEROBASEONE, born March 20, 2007 in South Korea. He ranked ninth on Mnet Boys Planet in 2023, securing the final spot in the group's debut lineup. Competing as a Yuehua Entertainment trainee, he distinguished himself through sharp dance instincts and a performance presence that defied his age. His role in creating choreography during the Dual Position Battle stage showed a creative streak beyond the standard contestant playbook. ZB1 debuted July 10, 2023, with Youth in the Shade. As the group's maknae, Yu-jin leaned into a playful energy that balanced the group's more polished members, becoming a fan favorite for his candid personality on variety and the sincerity he brought to fan interactions. The group achieved a Rookie Grand Slam, sweeping 10 Rookie of the Year awards across domestic ceremonies in 2023 and 2024, and toured globally through the Here and Now World Tour in 2025 and 2026. From April 2024 to September 14, 2025, Yu-jin served as MC on SBS Inkigayo alongside IVE's Leeseo and actor Moon Seonghyun, becoming the longest-running MC trio in the show's history. His hosting stint raised his individual profile considerably beyond the group context. When ZB1's original contract concluded in January 2026, Yu-jin and three other Yuehua-affiliated members, Zhang Hao, Ricky, and Kim Gyu-vin, departed after a brief two-month extension to complete the group's final concert activities. The contract concluded March 15, 2026. The remaining five members continued as a reorganized ZEROBASEONE under WAKEONE. Yu-jin's post-ZB1 activities under YH Entertainment are in development, with a new group project involving the former Yuehua members announced for 2026.
