Moon Jong Up is a South Korean singer, dancer and former member of B.A.P (비에이피). He graduated from Hanlim Arts High School and later obtained a bachelor's degree in Enterprise Business from Soongsil Cyber ​​University, and he earned a master's degree in Directing from Dongguk University.

He made his debut in January 2012 as B.A.P's main dancer and lead vocalist with their first single, "Warrior". They debuted in Japan in October 2013 with a new version (in Japanese) of the same single.

However, in November 2014, the members announced they had filed a lawsuit against TS Entertainment (TS엔터테인먼트), looking to nullify their contracts, claiming unfair working conditions and profit distributions. The agency denied the allegations and threatened to sue the members for defamation. In August 2015, they reached an undisclosed settlement and resumed their activities.

B.A.P officially disbanded in February 2019.

After switching agencies, he made his debut as a solo artist in April 2020 with the single album "Headache". In February 2023, he entered the survival show "Peak Time" as a solo artist and was grouped with 3 more soloists in Team 24:00, finishing in 3rd place. In May of that year, he signed with MA Entertainment (MA엔터테인먼트).

In June 2024, 4 B.A.P members (including him) announced plans to reunite and release new music. As they could not use the B.A.P name due to copyright issues, they re-debuted as BANG & JUNG & YOO & MOON (방용국&정대현&유영재&문종업) in August 2024 with the album "Curtain Call". The group is also represented by MA Entertainment, and he continues to promote as a soloist as well.

He enlisted in the military on May 19, 2025.
