Lee Tae Gyeom, previously known as Lee Jae Hyeong, also known by the English name Jeff, is a South Korean singer-songwriter, musician, and member of THE ROSE (더로즈). He graduated from Samcheok High School.

He became interested in music as a teenager and even received a chance from the duo GILGUBONGU to be their temporary guitarist while he was just a rookie trainee. In early 2015, he started busking with Park Do Joon (also known as Leo) but could not meet often because Park was a trainee at DSP Media, and the agency prevented him from busking. Then, he met Lee Ha Joon (also known as Dylan) while practicing in the same studio, and both began busking. Months later, Park left DSP and was recruited to join him and Lee once again. He accepted, and the trio began posting their songs on YouTube and busking as the indie band WINDFALL by the end of 2015.

By early 2016, the trio recruited their final member, Kim Woo Sung, and the band signed an exclusive contract with J&Star Company (제이앤스타컴퍼니) and decided to rebrand as THE ROSE.

He made his debut in August 2017 as the band's bassist, sub-vocalist, visual and maknae with their first single, "Sorry", written by Lee Ha Joon. Billboard named the single as one of the best Korean pop songs of 2017, and Rolling Stone praised their debut, which took them on their first world tour in early 2018.

In February 2020, the members filed a lawsuit against J&Star Company to terminate their exclusive contract. They claimed the agency had not paid them since their debut and that they had a strict performance and promotional schedule. The company immediately denied the claims, and the lawsuit was not settled until June 2021.

He enlisted for his mandatory military service on November 9, 2020, and was discharged on August 8, 2022.

They spent most of 2023 and 2024 attending international festivals such as Coachella and Lollapalooza and went on a worldwide tour. They created their own label, Windfall, and are also co-managed by Transparent Arts (트랜스페어런트아츠) in the United States.

On May 26, 2025, in an Instagram live, he revealed that he legally changed his name to Lee Tae Gyeom (이태겸).
