Chaewon’s major transition shows her true capabilities as the idol, blowing fans away.

Chaewon was born in 2000 and spent her study at the Hanlim Multi Art School. Chaewon has idol potential since an early age and LE SSERAFIM allowed the idol to showcase her best. After her debut with the group, Chaewon has nothing but a spectacular transformation to stun her friends.

Before LE SSERAFIM, Chaewon was a member of IZ*ONE but was not the most outstanding member and was not too lucky with her solo appearances, particularly with magazine shoots. In one of her photoshoots with Vogue Korea, the idol emerged with a strange braided hair and a counterproductive wet makeup look.

Little does anyone know, Chaewon is a daughter of the famous theater actress in Korea, Lee Ran Hee with 30 years working in the field. Chaewon’s mother is supportive of her choice of career. The idol bears a lot of her mother’s beauty traits.

Her family background aside, Chaewon’s career is on the rise, accumulating for the actress a whopping earning. Her net worth reaches 1.5 million USD and seems to only rise in the future.

As of now, Chaewon is still highly regarded but the controversy over her debut has not died out. Nevertheless, the idol has a good reputation among peers and acquaintances. She is said to be a quiet and reserved person.
