Im Seul Ong is a South Korean singer, actor, and member of 2AM (투에이엠). He graduated from Seonjeong High School and later obtained a bachelor's degree in Theater and Film from Daejin University and a master's degree in Cultural Arts Management from Kyunghee University.

In early 2008, JYP Entertainment (JYP엔터테인먼트) launched a reality/documentary show called "Hot Blood Men" capturing the training program of 14 trainees. After 3 were eliminated, the remaining 11 trainees joined to create ONE DAY (원데이), and almost immediately, they were split into two separate groups, ballad-oriented 2AM (4 trainees) and hip-hop/R&B-oriented 2PM (7 trainees).

He made his debut in July 2008 as 2AM's vocalist with the single "This Song". The group found commercial success from the beginning, with most of their singles charting inside the top ten in all major South Korean charts.

He made his acting debut in 2010 with roles in the drama "Personal Taste" and the movie "Acoustic".

He left JYP in 2015, and the group went on a 7-year hiatus with 3 members fulfilling their mandatory military service and, later, being involved in other individual activities. He made his debut as a solo artist in May 2015 with the digital single "Normal".

In August 2020, he was involved in a car crash that resulted in the death of a pedestrian. The victim's family tried to sue him but were not able to do so as the investigation revealed the victim was jaywalking when he was struck by the car, making it ineligible to sue under South Korean laws. He still settled with the family and paid 7 million Won.

The group reunited in 2021 and released their fourth EP, "Ballad 21 F/W" and now continue to actively promote and also handle their individual activities. In October 2022, he signed with WakeOne (웨이크원).
