Jung Joon Hyuk, also known as SAinT, is a Korean-Canadian rapper and producer who debuted independently in 2025. He was a former YG Entertainment trainee.

In 2018-2019, he participated in YG Treasure Box at the age of 13. Although he consistently ranked in the top tier from the beginning, he unfortunately failed to debut after being eliminated in episode 8. He subsequently left YG Entertainment in early 2019.

In 2024, he returned to South Korean television by competing on the KBS 2TV reality survival show "The Entertainer" as an individual trainee. The appearance served as his re-introduction to the public as an adult performer after his childhood stint at YG.

In 2025, he released his self-produced hip-hop tracks on SoundCloud under the stage name SAinT and marked his independent debut.

On January 22, 2026, he was introduced as a contestant on Mnet's survival show "Show Me the Money Season 12". He advanced all the way to the semi-finals. His successful run on the show led directly to his formal mainstream debut, cemented by the official streaming release of his hit single "TICK TOCK" (featuring Zico) on March 6, 2026.
