Yang Ji Won is a South Korean singer, model, and actress. She was part of the girl group, Five Girls. The group starred in a reality show on MTV called "Diary of Five Girls", but never debuted due to financial problems. Ji Won moved to Core Contents Media and was slated to debut in the girl group T-ara in 2009. Before debuting, the group provided a soundtrack for the Korean drama Cinderella Man called "Good Person". However, Ji Won was dropped from the group's line-up in early June 2009 due to creative differences. She left Core Contents Media in 2010 and moved to B2M Entertainment in 2011. In 2012, she debuted as part of the 5 member vocal group SPICA, who disbanded in 2017.
Ji Won has also been involved in acting and modelling, starring in the Korean movie, Death Bell, as well as various music videos. She starred in Boyfriend's music video "I'll Be There" in December 2011, and with Kim Kyu Jong in the "Yesterday" music video from his Turn Me On album. In 2013, she appeared on Korean hip-hop duo Baechigi's music video for "Shower of Tears" featuring singer Ailee. In the video, she is shown singing the song but with Ailee's vocals playing instead. Due to schedule conflicts, Ji Won filled in for her as a vocalist to promote the song on music programs with Baechigi. The song won a K-Chart award from M! Countdown on January 31, during the time she was promoting with the duo.

In October 2017, she became a contestant on the idol rebooting show The Unit. She ranked 6th place out of all the female contestants, thus becoming a member of UNI.T. UNI.T made their official debut on May 18, 2018 with their first mini album Line. The group disbanded on October 12, 2018.

On April 29, 2021 she signed with CL&Company. Edit Biography
