Gill

Gil Seong-joon (born December 24, 1977), better known by his stage name Gill, is a South Korean singer, television personality, and former main vocalist of the hip-hop duo Leessang. He rose to fame in the 2000s with Leessang, known for blending hip-hop with meaningful lyrics. In 2009, Gill became a regular co-host on the popular variety show Infinite Challenge, where he showcased his unique, rugged charm and humor, though he was often dubbed the “Unfunny Friend” due to his slower ad-libs compared to his co-hosts. He also co-hosted Come To Play and became a coach on The Voice Korea from 2012 to 2013, earning praise for his warm and encouraging approach with contestants. However, in 2014, Gill's career was marred by a DUI incident, which led to his resignation from public activities and his departure from Infinite Challenge. After a hiatus, he returned in 2016 as a producer for Mnet’s Show Me the Money 5, teaming up with Mad Clown to guide aspiring rappers. Beyond his TV career, Gill has also released music outside of Leessang, including the 2015 EP R.O.A.D. Project #1 and the single "Refrigerator" in 2016.
