Yoon Doo Joon
- Name: Yoon Doo Joon
- Native name: 윤두준
- Also Known as: Dujun, Doo Joon, Yoon Dujun, Yun Du Jun
- Nationality: South Korean
- Gender: Male
- Born: July 4, 1989
- Age: 35
Before debuting, he spent time as a trainee at JYP Entertainment and was set to become part of either 2AM or 2PM but was ultimately not selected, and he left the company.
After switching agencies to CUBE Entertainment (큐브엔터테인먼트), he made his debut in October 2009 as BEAST's leader, lead rapper, vocalist and face of the group with their first EP, "Beast is the B2st". They initially received attention as some members failed in previous auditions and were even called a "recycled group". However, the group has achieved significant commercial success and critical accolades and is one of the most awarded groups of all time at the Golden Disc Awards, the Seoul Music Awards, and the Melon Music Awards.
He debuted as an actor when he was cast in MBC's daily sitcoms "More Charming By The Day" and "All My Love", winning the Rookie Comedy Award at the 2010 MBC Entertainment Awards.
In late 2016, their contracts with CUBE ended, and they decided to create a new independent agency called Around Us Entertainment (어라운드어스 엔터테인먼트). They were not able to keep the name trademark, and in March 2017, he re-debuted as part of HIGHLIGHT with their EP, "Can You Feel It?".
He enlisted for his mandatory military service on August 24, 2018, and was discharged on April 10, 2020.
During that time, the Ministry of Education questioned the validity of his bachelor's degree as there were claims that he received preferential treatment as he received class credits for all broadcast appearances without filling in the necessary forms to validate them. In January 2019, his degree was revoked.
