Song Hyun-woo, who performs and creates content under the name VOW (바우), is a South Korean artist who came to public attention as a contestant on the 2016 survival competition *Produce 101 Season 2* before going on to serve as a member of two groups — Jackpot and P.L.O — in both of which he held the maknae position alongside roles as a rapper and vocalist.
Group Activities
VOW's group experience spans two separate acts. Within Jackpot, he served as a rapper, vocalist, and the group's youngest member. He later appeared in P.L.O, where he held the position of lead rapper and again occupied the maknae role. Both memberships are no longer current.
Recent Events
In early 2026, VOW — identified in coverage under his legal name Sung Hyun-woo — drew attention for reasons unrelated to music. He detailed, via his YouTube channel, an incident in which he was assaulted by an acquaintance he had attempted to stop from driving under the influence. The account, which he shared in a video titled *Story of being assaulted while stopping drunk driving*, resulted in his hospitalization due to severe bleeding. The disclosure prompted coverage in Korean entertainment media, framing the incident primarily around the circumstances of the assault rather than any professional development.
