Lily (릴리), born Lily Jin Morrow (Korean name: Park Jin, 박진) on October 17, 2002, in Marysville, Victoria, Australia, is a main vocalist of NMIXX and the group's Korean-Australian member. Her mother is Korean and her father is Australian, a background that gives her the bilingual fluency — English and Korean, with conversational Japanese added through trainee years — that has made her one of the group's most accessible members for international audiences. Her K-pop story starts earlier than most idol timelines. In 2015, at age twelve, she competed on SBS's K-Pop Star Season 4, finishing in fourth place in a competition that historically fed directly into the major agencies. The result earned her a JYP Entertainment trainee contract, which she accepted and held for six and a half years before NMIXX debuted on February 22, 2022, with the single album Ad Mare and lead track "O.O." That duration — from competition placement in 2015 to debut in 2022 — reflects a patience and commitment to preparation that the industry demands but rarely makes visible. As a main vocalist, Lily carries the harmonic weight of NMIXX's output alongside Haewon, operating within a group framework that places genuine vocal capability at the center of its identity. The group's musical direction, defined by complex structures and high live-performance standards across releases from Ad Mare through the Fe3O4 era, requires that main vocalist designations are functional rather than honorary. She also co-wrote the lyrics to "TIC TIC," the group's February 2026 collaboration with Brazilian artist Pabllo Vittar, which debuted at the Festival de Viña del Mar in Chile during the TIC TIC: CARNIVAL World Tour — one of the more globally visible moments in NMIXX's career to date.
