Hong Eunchae

Hong Eunchae (홍은채, born November 10, 2006) debuted at 15 as LE SSERAFIM's youngest member, bringing raw energy and performance instinct to a group of industry veterans.

Before Source Music, Eunchae trained at Def Dance School for two years and auditioned for both JYP Entertainment and Pledis Entertainment. Source Music signed her in 2021, and she was revealed as LE SSERAFIM's third member on April 6, 2022, surprising fans with her age and relative lack of pre-debut exposure compared to her ex-IZ*ONE groupmates.

She debuted on May 2, 2022, as the group's maknae (youngest member). Despite being the least experienced at debut, Eunchae has evolved into a reliable performer. She anchors the group's dance formations alongside Kazuha and has developed a distinct on-stage presence that balances the group's overall energy.

LE SSERAFIM's trajectory since debut includes the Billboard 200 ("Antifragile" at No. 14, making them the fastest K-pop girl group to debut on the chart at the time), Circle Digital Chart dominance ("Perfect Night" topped the chart for six weeks), and their first Billboard Hot 100 entry with "Easy." Eunchae has been integral to all of it.
