GHOST9’s Lee Jinwoo Shocks Netizens With His Mature Transformation Since His “Produce X 101” Days

“Wow he became an oppa.”

Lee Jinwoo was only 15 years old when he competed for a chance to debut through the idol survival program Produce X 101.

On the show, he was known for his adorable personality and charming talents and was, unfortunately, a victim of Produce X 101‘s voting manipulation scandal, causing his untimely elimination.

After being eliminated from the show, Lee Jinwoo debuted as the maknae of Maroo Entertainment‘s K-Pop boy group GHOST9.

Four years have passed since the show’s end, and Lee Jinwoo is quickly earning attention for his surprising transformation since appearing on Produce X 101.

Lee Jinwoo’s kind personality and youthful charm instantly captivated viewers when he was a Produce X 101 trainee.

He earned widespread attention for a memorable moment on Produce X 101, when he hilariously dodged questions about the show from his own mom during a phone call so as not to spoil the results, proving his natural charm and earning praise for his diligence.

Since his debut with GHOST9, the now-18-year-old talented idol has undergone a growth spurt, and his official profile now lists his height as 182 cm (approx. 5’10”).

Coupled with his handsome visuals and more mature appearance, netizens couldn’t help but express their shock at his transformation.
