Lee Chae Yeon is a South Korean singer, dancer, and former member of IZ*ONE (아이즈원 / アイズワン). She graduated from Seocheon High School. She is the older sister of ITZY's Lee Chae Ryeong.

Before debuting, both sisters were trainees at JYP Entertainment, but neither could debut as part of TWICE as both were eliminated in the final rounds of the survival show "Sixteen". They also were contestants in "K-Pop Star Season 3".

Then, in mid-2018, she participated in the survival show "Produce 48". She finished in 12th place and earned a spot in the resulting project group. She debuted in October 2018 as IZ*ONE's main dancer, lead vocalist and lead rapper with their first mini-album, "Color*IZ". They were co-managed by Off The Record Entertainment (오프더레코드엔터테인먼트) and WakeOne (웨이크원) in South Korea.

The contract was planned for 2 and a half years, and in April 2021, the group officially disbanded after no agreement could be reached with all the members' agencies to extend it.

Later that year, she joined the dance crew WANT (원트) and auditioned to become part of "Street Woman Fighter". Then, in October 2022, she made her debut as a solo artist with the mini-album "Hush Rush".

She is now represented by WM Entertainment (더블유엠엔터테인먼트) and is focused on her career as a soloist.
