Nam Tae-hyun (born May 10, 1994), also known as Taehyun, is a South Korean singer-songwriter and actor. He is a former member of the K-pop group Winner, in which he was a main vocalist and was also involved in the production of the group's tracks.

Prior to his debut as a member of Winner, Taehyun performed as a backup dancer for the YG Family Concert 2011.

In 2013, he competed in the reality program WIN: Who Is Next as a trainee in "Team A", which went on to debut as Winner. Nam co-composed and co-wrote two songs that were used to compete on the show. That year, Taehyun also made a cameo appearance in his label-mate Taeyang's music video for "Ringa Linga". In December, he appeared on Winner's own variety program, Winner TV, which aired on Mnet.

Taehyun participated in the production of Winner's debut album, 2014 S/S, which was released in August 2014. He co-composed three songs from the album – "But (사랑하지마)", "Tonight (이 밤)" and his solo track "Confession (고백하는거야)". The album topped several charts, including the Gaon Music Chart as well as the Billboard's World Albums Chart. Nam, along with the other members, appeared on shows such as Weekly Idol and You Hee-yeol's Sketchbook to promote their songs.

In 2015, while the group was on hiatus, Nam made his acting debut in the web drama Midnight Girl. That same year, he played a supporting role in the drama Late Night Restaurant.

In January 2016, Taehyun released the single "Pricked" (사랑가시) in collaboration with Mino as a warm-up track ahead of Winner's comeback mini-album Exit : E. The single charted at no.2 on MelOn and was no.1 on iTunes in 9 countries, including Singapore, Thailand and Brunei.
