Jang Woo Hyuk is a South Korean singer, dancer, and former member of H.O.T (에이치오티) and JTL (제이티엘). He graduated from Hyunil High School and later obtained an associate's degree in Traditional Arts from Baekje Arts University, a bachelor's degree in Multimedia Visual Arts from Kyunggi University and a master's degree in Physical Education from Sejong University.

He made his debut in September 1996 as H.O.T's main rapper, main dancer and vocalist with their first album, "We Hate All Kinds of Violence", which was accused of being plagiarized, and lawsuits were placed against them. Despite their turbulent debut, the group eventually rose to fame with their first hit, "Candy", and the single "We Are the Future" won them an MTV award for Best International Video.

Despite their huge success, SM Entertainment (SM엔터테인먼트) officially announced their disbanded in May 2001. He left the agency, and his relationship with SM's Lee Soo Man became severely strained.

He joined the other members who left SM as well, Tony Ahn and Lee Jae Won, and re-debuted in December 2001 as part of the trio JTL with their first album, "Enter The Dragon". The title song "A Better Day" could not be consistently promoted as all members claimed that Lee Soo Man interfered by blocking them from appearing in several music shows. In 2003, the group won the Favorite Artist of Korea Award at the MTV Asia Awards. However, they disbanded a few months later in early 2004.

He made his debut as a solo artist in September 2005 with the studio album "No More Drama".

He enlisted for his mandatory military service on November 15, 2007, and was discharged on December 18, 2009. He then created his own company, WH Creative (더블유에이치크레이티브), in 2012 and is active in China, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan.
