Happy birthday! Hyein turns 17 today

NewJeans singer Hyein is celebrating her 17th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer Hyein has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 17th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Lee, a cultural icon

Born Lee Hye-in in Incheon on April 21, 2008, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Korean history. Lee's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Hye-in hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Hyein as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 17.

Happy Birthday, Hye-in, you're the best!
