Jongho is the main vocalist of ATEEZ.
Although he is the youngest member, he rarely acts like it. He’s often introverted and shy, but has an understated sense of humour. He is physically the strongest and is known for easily winning at arm wrestling contests and being able to break apples apart with his bare hands.
Jongho’s emoji is a bear 🐻. His Aniteez is a bear named JJONGbear.

Excelling in most genres and styles, it’d be more difficult to choose songs where our vocal king Jongho does not stand out. He has an immense range (3.5 octaves!!) and some of the most stable live vocals in K-pop.
To round out our concert setlist watch, this week we’ll be watching or listening to Guerrilla, Wake Up, and Everything.
Guerrilla is the title track from the beginning of the THE WORLD ****era (July 2022). This is them at the height of their underground revolution, breaking all the rules with their guerrilla warfare to wake up the world from numbness. Like Crazy Form, everyone is utilized so well here and it is chef’s kiss 🤌. This song POPS 👏 OFF 👏 in a live performance, so be ready 🔥
Jongho carries the topline through the choruses and bridge, singing at 1:08, 1:34, 2:25, 2:40, 2:50, 3:11, 3:20 and 3:38.
[If you were to learn one fan chant, make it this one!! @3:30 BREAK THE WALL 🎉 x3]

Let’s learn that repeated part in the chorus!
춤을 춰 (chumeul chwo) = dance 💃
break that wall
우리 feel로 (uli feello) = with our feeling
여기저기 (yeogijeogi) = here and there
울려 퍼져 (ullyeo peojyeo) = spread it

Also from THE WORLD era, Wake Up is a B-side from EP.2 : OUTLAW (June 2023). It showcases Jongho’s incredible range and technique, with repeated vocal slides throughout.

And finally the last of our unit songs from THE WORLD EP.FIN : WILL (Dec 2023)! Everything is a nostalgic love song (with amazing vocals, of course), accompanied by a beautiful storied music video.
