With abilities in dancing, singing, and rapping, Hyunsoo's biography emphasises his performance variety. Renowned for his flexibility and quiet but charming demeanour, he has been dubbed "Jjangsoo" (a light-hearted variation on his name) among supporters. His practical, quiet, hands-on ISTP personality type captures his grounded temperament and artistic approach to his work.
Biography and Background:
Born in Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea, in the rural village of Sageun-ri, Yeongsun-myeon, Jang Hyunsoo came from an area noted for its picturesque scenery and agricultural legacy. Raised as an only child by farmers, Hyunsoo grew up assisting with farm chores, especially in dried persimmons cultivation. Among supporters, this agricultural background gained him the loving moniker "agricultural idol." Early life taught him a strong work ethic and a connection to nature, which he sometimes mentions in interviews.
Hyunsoo went to Hamchang Middle School and Yeongsoon Elementary School before enrolling at Hanlim Entertainment Arts High School, a renowned institution noted for producing future performers. He left Hanlim without graduating, though, to concentrate on his K-pop career, then passed his GED to finish his study. His love of creating pictures, a pastime he engaged in before devoting himself entirely to idol training, gives his persona a quirky element in addition to his ambidexterity, equal skills with both hands.
Though specifics of his tenure there are still lacking, Hyunsoo was a trainee at TS Entertainment before joining the entertainment business. His change to P Nation signalled a turning moment that would bring him to the survival performance launching his career. Hyunsoo's rural background and poor origins contrast with his present life as a K-pop idol, thus his path becomes a fascinating story of skill and tenacity.
Career:
Pre-Debut: "Loud" and P Nation Recruitment:
Hyunsoo's road to popularity started when he turned out as a candidate on SBS's Loud on May 20, 2021 survival audition series. Aimed to create two boy groups, the show was a collaborative initiative between P Nation (run by PSY) and JYP Entertainment (run by Park Jin-young). Although Hyunsoo first found it difficult to stand out, his involvement highlighted his dancing and singing ability. PSY decided to save him from elimination in the eleventh show, which aired August 14, 2021, seeing his promise. This turning point guaranteed his spot on the P Nation team.
Hyunsoo and six other Team P Nation candidates won the online vote in the last round of Loud, therefore securing their places in the group originally scheduled to consist of seven members. One member, Tanaka Koki, left before premiere, though, and the group continued as a six-member act called TNX.
Debut with TNX: "Way Up" (2022):
Hyunsoo debuted with TNX on May 17, 2022 with their first mini-album, Way Up. With Hyunsoo acting as a dancer and vocalist, the group's high-energy approach was first presented via the first single, "Move." With around 100,000 copies sold in South Korea, the rookie group had a great beginning. Fans were first drawn to his powerful stage presence and unique vocals tone.
Career Progression: 2023–2025:
With their second mini-album, Love Never Dies, which came out in February 2023 and had the lead track "Love or Die, which ranked No. 14 on Billboard's 25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2023," TNX's momentum kept on. Hyunsoo's dancing was particularly strong in the choreography, hence strengthening the group's performance-oriented reputation. TNX debuted Boyhood in June 2023, displaying even more their adaptability with the lead track "Kick It 4 Now."
TNX released their first digital single, "Fuego,," on March 20, 2024, then participated on Mnet's Road to Kingdom: Ace of Ace, coming in ninth. After Kyungjun left the group in October 2024, TNX rebuilt as a five-member team with Hyunsoo playing a more significant part. His contributions to TNX's performances still define their developing sound and stage appearance as of March 13, 2025.
Net Worth 2025:
As is common for K-pop idols early in their careers, Hyunsoo's personal net worth is not publicly known. Based on album sales, concert attendance, and possible sponsorships, outlets including Netizens Report projected his net worth in 2024 at over $1 million USD. With TNX's ongoing activity and Hyunsoo's rising profile by March 13, 2025, his net worth is expected to have somewhat changed.
Given TNX's sales (e.g., Way Up exceeding 100,000 copies), live events, and Hyunsoo's group membership, his projected net worth in 2025 most certainly falls between $1.2 million and $1.8 million USD. This prediction takes into consideration:
Consistent releases by TNX help members to share income.
Concerts and Tours: Live events increase income for K-pop stars, who depend mostly on them.
Though not yet a big endorser, Hyunsoo's growing popularity could draw small-scale sponsorships by 2025.
Group Activities: As a five-member group, individual profits shares could somewhat rise after 2024.
These numbers constitute a conservative estimate based on industry standards even that K-pop profits mostly depend on group success and individual prospects. They are therefore speculative.
Personal Life and Fun Facts:
Hyunsoo appeals to both bandmates and fans by combining a humorous side with shyness. He lives in a dorm with Hwi and has a deep friendship spanning five to six years with Won from the group CIIPHER. Usually replying with quiet humour, he is well-known as the object of pranks by TNX members.
Hyunsoo likes beef, hamburgers, butter bread, banana milk, and tangerine-flavored ice cream. Black, white, and green are his preferred colours; these express his inclination for strong but understated design.
hates fish (because of their scent), seafood, bugs, and insects; once he said he would have chosen ghosts over bugs.
Interests include watching YouTube, taking pictures, and farming—a tribute to his background. He likes to draw as well, but he stopped to concentrate on training.
Often considered as the best artist among TNX members, Hyunsoo is ambidextrous and adept at sketching.
He listens to rain ASMS to sleep, wakes up with ten alarms, and uses deep breathes before shows to help him relax.
Dreams: Should he be endowed with a superpower, he would pick flying or teleportation.
Hyunsoo's fan name, "Soouls," captures his close relationship with admirers who value his grounded appeal and commitment.
