Kim Se-jeong (born August 28, 1996) is a South Korean singer signed under Jellyfish Entertainment. She is best known for finishing second in Mnet's K-pop girl group survival show Produce 101 and is currently a member of girl group Gugudan. She is a former member of I.O.I and was also the MC for the live broadcast of the KBS2 variety show Talents for Sale.
Kim Se-jeong was born in Gimje, North Jeolla Province, but moved to Anyang, Gyeonggi where she stayed with her mother and older brother at her aunt's house. Her parents split when she was a child, leaving her mother to single-handedly raise her and her brother, and she has previously stated she did not keep in touch with her father until her third year of middle school. Sejeong is currently studying practical music in Hanyang Women's University.
In 2012, Sejeong participated in the second season of competition television show K-pop Star 2 at the age of 16. She did not make it through the second round ranking audition, but Yang Hyun-suk (YG) brought her back with a wildcard for the casting round where she performed a duet of Taeyang's "I Need A Girl" with fellow contestant Jo Yoo Min. YG cast the both of them, grouping Sejeong with contestants Nicole Curry and Lee Soo Kyung for the final casting round. However, at the end of the round, she was not cast by YG Entertainment, JYP Entertainment or SM Entertainment and was eliminated from the competition.
In January 2016, Sejeong, together with fellow trainees Kim Na-young and Kang Mi-na, represented Jellyfish Entertainment on reality girl group survival show Produce 101 for the chance to debut in a Mnet girl group.
