Jang Yi Jung, formerly known professionally as J.Pearl and currently also known as El Capitxn, is a South Korean singer, dancer, producer and former member of HISTORY (히스토리). He graduated from Jinju Dongmyeong High School and later obtained an associate's degree in K-Pop from Dong-Ah Broadcasting Arts University.

Before debuting, he first appeared on TV as a contestant in the survival show "Star Audition: The Great Birth 2".

He made his debut in April 2013 as HISTORY's main vocalist and maknae with the single album "Dreamer" featuring the narration of fellow labelmate IU. Unfortunately, after several music releases and comebacks, Fave Entertainment (페이브엔터테인먼트) began analyzing if the group was worth keeping together.

In May 2017, the agency announced the group would be disbanding, and each member would focus on individual activities. After the group was disbanded, he joined the team of composers Devine Channel under the stage name J.Pearl.

He was the co-leader of the producer team VENDORS, which was initially formed alongside former HISTORY groupmate Kim Jae Ho (now known as Nano) before moving to BigHit Music (빅히트 뮤직) as a full-time producer. He works under the stage name EL CAPITXN.

In late 2024, he made his debut as a DJ.
