Choi Yoon Sun, formerly known professionally as New Sun, is a South Korean singer, dancer, actress, and former member of SONAMOO (소나무). She graduated from Hanlim Arts High School.

She made her debut in January 2015 as the group's high rapper, sub-vocalist and maknae with their first mini-album, "Deja Vu". The album debuted at the number one spot on Gaon's weekly Album Chart. In 2016, TS Entertainment (TS엔터테인먼트) opted to change their concept to a brighter and more cheerful one with their third EP. However, the agency faced financial issues and closed down in 2017, leaving the group on an indefinite hiatus.

While no official statement was ever made, it is assumed that SONAMOO disbanded in 2021 when all the members' contracts expired.

She began her acting career with minor roles in 2016 and has focused on getting more credits after the group's disbandment. She is now an independent artist as her contract with AnB Group expired in late 2023.
