A trainee who dreamed of becoming an idol finds a new identity
Chae Ryu-jin, who was an aspiring idol in the past, is receiving public attention by working as an influencer after correcting her gender.
Chae Ryu-jin first became known to the public in 2016 when she participated in Mnet's survival program 'Boys24' under her real name, Chae Ho-cheol. At the time, he was not selected for the final debut group, but was selected as a member of the 28-member performance team and worked for about a year. Afterwards, he re-debuted as 'Ryu J', a member of the multinational boy group JWiiver, but the group virtually ceased activities immediately after its debut and completely withdrew from the idol industry.
Open transition and new beginning
Chae Ryu-jin revealed in July last year that she identifies as a woman, and later revealed that she had legally changed her name from Chae Ho-cheol to Chae Ryu-jin.
Currently, he is working as an influencer and consistently posts fashion, makeup, and travel-related content on social media. Recently, a video of someone doing promotional activities wearing a maid uniform on the streets of Japan became a hot topic, and it was confirmed that the video was filmed while filming a vlog while visiting a Japanese maid cafe.
The most recent post showed her dancing to singer Choi Yena's 'Catch Catch', and netizens responded that her visual resembled Yena.
Open dialogue about transgender identity
Chae Ryu-jin talks very honestly about her past and transition process as an influencer. His content is evaluated as providing a space for healthy conversation about transgender identity and providing a space of empathy for those walking a similar journey.
