Kim Yoo Jung, known simply as Yoojung, is a South Korean singer, dancer, former member of AB AVENUE (AB 에비뉴) and current member of LABOUM (라붐). She graduated from Dongguk University College of Education Affiliated Girls' High School and later obtained a bachelor's degree in Practical Music from Myongji University.

She made her debut in May 2010 (under the stage name LeeYo) as part of the project group AB AVENUE, a ballad-oriented duo made up of rotating members, with the single "Only You". The duo became inactive and quietly disbanded in August 2012 when the company, B-Type Town, faced financial issues.

She re-debuted in August 2014 (now under her real name) as the group's leader, lead vocalist and rapper with their first single album, "Petit Macaron". The group was initially managed by Global H Media (글로벌에이치미디어).

In September 2021, it was announced that she decided to leave the group as her contract expired. The other members signed with Interpark Music Plus (인터파크뮤직플러스). However, in August 2022, Interpark was acquired by Yanolja, and they no longer wanted to keep managing the group. So, the following month, all members decided to go on an indefinite hiatus as they are still interested in continuing as part of LABOUM but are focusing on their individual activities for now.

In 2022, she participated in Soyeon’s solo fan meeting, and many fans interpreted it as a sign that she had rejoined LABOUM. They held a mini-concert in February 2023, and she was also part of it. While no official announcement regarding her status within the group has been made, it is assumed she is back as a member.

She is currently represented by Moden Berry Korea (모덴베리코리아).
