Lee Chae Yeon

Lee Chae Yeon (이채연) built her name on elite performance before most fourth-gen solo campaigns figured out how to frame dancers as full-spectrum artists. She first broke through on survival TV, then debuted with IZ*ONE in 2018 before launching her solo run in 2022 under WM Entertainment. Projects like HUSH RUSH, Over The Moon, and SHOWDOWN proved she could carry a comeback on precision, control, and charisma instead of concept noise alone. Her move to DOD in late 2025 reset the business side without changing the core pitch: one of K-pop's sharpest performance-led soloists entering a new era with more room to define her own scale.

When did Lee Chae Yeon make her solo debut?
Lee Chae Yeon made her solo debut on October 12, 2022 with the mini album HUSH RUSH. The project marked her official post-IZ*ONE launch and immediately positioned her as a performance-first soloist rather than a nostalgia-driven re-debut.
Was Lee Chae Yeon a member of IZ*ONE?
Yes. Lee Chae Yeon debuted with <a href="/artists/izone">IZ*ONE</a> in 2018 and became one of the group's defining performance anchors during its run. Her later solo career kept that same precision-driven identity while shifting the focus onto her own stage presence and choreography.
Which agency is Lee Chae Yeon under now?
Lee Chae Yeon is currently signed to <a href="/brands/dod">DOD</a>. She joined the company in December 2025 after ending her run with <a href="/brands/wm-entertainment">WM Entertainment</a>, and her late April 2026 comeback is the first release campaign of that new agency era.
What are Lee Chae Yeon's biggest solo releases so far?
Her core solo releases so far are HUSH RUSH from 2022, Over The Moon from 2023, and SHOWDOWN from 2024. That run helped define her catalog around sharp choreography, high-control performance delivery, and a cleaner identity than many concept-heavy solo rollouts.
