What happened to Heeseung?
Heeseung (Lee Hee-seung, born October 15, 2001) departed ENHYPEN in March 2026 and is now pursuing solo activities under the stage name Evan, remaining with BELIFT LAB. Leader Jungwon publicly confirmed in July 2026 that ENHYPEN is a six-member group going forward.
Many birthday lists still published online show the original seven-member lineup. If you are planning an October 15 event, note that it is now a solo-artist date rather than an ENHYPEN group date — which matters when an ad agency asks you which artist the creative is for.
Each member's birthday in detail
Jungwon — February 9, 2004
Yang Jung-won is the leader and a vocalist. February 9 opens ENHYPEN's birthday year, and is the only ENGENE celebration date in the first quarter.
Jay — April 20, 2002
Park Jong-seong grew up in Seattle, USA, and is now the oldest member of the group. His April 20 birthday is the only spring date on the calendar.
Sunoo — June 24, 2003
Kim Sun-oo is a vocalist and the group's mood-maker. June 24 sits alone in the middle of the year, which usually makes it the easiest ENHYPEN date to secure ad inventory for.
Jake — November 15, 2002
Sim Jae-yun was raised in Brisbane, Australia. November 15 begins the group's dense end-of-year run of three birthdays in under four weeks.
Sunghoon — December 8, 2002
Park Sung-hoon is a former competitive figure skater who represented South Korea before debuting. His birthday falls one day before Ni-ki's.
Ni-ki — December 9, 2005
Nishimura Riki is the maknae, the main dancer, and the group's only Japanese member. Because of that, Ni-ki's December 9 birthday draws the heaviest fan-ad activity inside Japan of any ENHYPEN date — Tokyo signage for that week is typically booked out well in advance.
Booking an ENHYPEN birthday ad in Japan
ENHYPEN have a large Japanese fanbase and tour Japan regularly, so Tokyo is a natural place for a fan-funded birthday ad — a senil ad (생일광고) in Korean, 応援広告 (ouen koukoku) in Japanese. Fans outside Japan can book these directly in English.
| Format | Who can book it | Apply by | Prices from |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digital signage / outdoor vision | An individual can book alone | 2 months before | About ¥13,000 |
| Station poster | A group of 2 or more, with a short group profile | 3–4 months before | About ¥16,000 |
Two things to settle before you book. Every fan support ad needs permission from the idol or their agency, and you will be asked for proof of it — a screenshot of the approval email or DM — when you order. Ads featuring anyone under 18 cannot be accepted. If permission and finished artwork are both already in hand, digital signage can sometimes go live in about 2 days.
The November 15 – December 9 stretch covers three of the six members, and it overlaps with Japan's year-end advertising peak, so book that window early. Check dates and availability on the Oshi-Ad store, or read how to run a birthday ad for your K-pop idol in Japan.
