Kim Ji Hun is a South Korean singer, dancer and member of KNK (크나큰). Before debuting, he spent several years as a trainee at Nega Network.

After arriving at YNB Entertainment (YNB엔터테인먼트), he appeared in music videos of their label mate, BESTIE, and also performed as a backup dancer.

He made his debut in February 2016 as the group's main dancer, vocalist and maknae (at the time) with a debut showcase and the release of their first single, "Knock".

In mid-2018, YNB faced financial problems, and the company ceased operations, leaving the members without a contract and an agency. In early 2019, they signed with 220 Entertainment (220엔터테인먼트) and had several tours in the US and in Europe. However, after the promotion of their third EP, the group went on hiatus.

He made his debut as a solo artist in October 2021 with the digital single "Behind U" under the stage name HVLF (pronounced as Half).

He enlisted in his mandatory military service on March 2, 2023, and was discharged on December 1, 2024.
