Jung Woo Yeon, born as Ryu Hyo Young in Gwangju, is a South Korean actress and a former idol singer. She and her identical twin sister Hwa Young were talent scouted when they participated in an SBS variety show. Both were then recruited as idol trainee for "Coeducation" and "T-ara" respectively. In April 2010, Ryu participated in and won the "Miss Chunhyang pageant". She made her debut in the same year under the stage name Han Bit Hyo Young. She was also featured in Speed's "Lovey Dovey Plus" music video. In 2017, a former T-ara staff member claimed Jung and her sister were the bullies in the scandal that plagued T-ara in 2012. The reports featured a picture of an alleged text conversation between Jung and Areum, T-ara's member at the time, in which Jung threatened Areum. Following this, viewers demanded that Jung step down from the TV series "Golden Pouch". In 2018, Jung played a supporting role in the 2018 series "Grand Prince". In October 2020, she officially changed her stage name to Jung Woo Yeon, and made a comeback in the showbiz with a lead role in the 2021 series "A Good Supper". (Source: Wikipedia).
