Song Ha Young, known simply as Hayoung, is a South Korean singer, dancer and member of FROMIS_9. She graduated from Hanlim Entertainment Arts High School, focusing on Practical Dance. Before debuting, she had training in hip-hop and also liked to compose songs.

In 2017, she participated in the singing survival show "Idol School", where she ranked in 2nd place and earned a spot in the group. She officially debuted in 2018 as FROMIS_9's co-leader, lead vocalist and main dancer with their 1st EP, "To. Heart", which landed in 4th place in the Gaon Album Chart.

In September 2018, Stone Music Entertainment confirmed that the group would now be managed by Off the Record Entertainment, a new label established by Stone Music to manage this group and Iz*One, with Pledis Entertainment in charge of the creative direction and the production of the group's music. The move was heavily criticized by fans as they felt the group was neglected in terms of promotions and releases compared to Iz*One. That same year, she made her acting debut with a role in the web series "Welcome to Heal Inn".

In 2021, the group fully transferred to Pledis after Off the Record re-organized. This generated more criticism as Pledis has a history of mismanaging girl groups and hindering their development. In June 2023, she was part of the group's 1st studio album, "Unlock My World", and even helped with choreography. She is also a certified yoga instructor.
