Jung Jiseob

Jung Jiseob (정지섭) is a South Korean guitarist and vocalist best known as a member of V01D under IX Entertainment. He debuted with the band on March 11, 2026 through the first mini album [01], but his story matters because he did not arrive as a clean-slate rookie. He came back into the market with real band mileage, a recognizable guitar identity, and years of stage experience already behind him.

Before V01D, Jiseob promoted in rock band 2Z from 2020 to 2024 under the shorter stage name Jiseob. That earlier run gave him a different kind of credibility inside V01D's launch campaign. He already knew how to hold a live arrangement together, how to work inside a band structure, and how to make guitar feel like a lead instrument instead of background decoration. He was also featured in Baek Seung-hyun's Wind and Moonlight music video before the V01D debut cycle fully ramped up.

Jiseob has cited Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit as the trigger that pushed him toward music in the first place. That origin story tracks with the sharper edge he brings into V01D's material. In a field crowded with polished idol-band launches, his page lands because the history feels lived in, not assembled overnight.
