Go Won

Go Won is a South Korean singer and a member of the girl group Loossemble. She is best known as a former member of Loona and its sub-unit Loona yyxy, where her ethereal visuals and high-pitched vocals made her a standout. Since 2023, she has been active with Loossemble under CTD ENM, continuing to release music and connect with fans. Her stage name, meaning "noble garden," reflects her elegant, dreamy image that has earned her a devoted following among Orbits and C.L.U members alike.[edit]

Go Won was born Park Chae-won in Incheon, South Korea. She trained under Blockberry Creative, where she was the tenth member revealed for the pre-debut project "Girl of the Month" on November 19, 2017. Her solo single "One & Only" dropped in January 2018, showcasing her delicate tone and establishing her individual identity before group activities began. She attended Hanlim Multi Art School, graduating alongside other idol trainees.[edit]

Go Won debuted as part of Loona's third sub-unit, Loona yyxy, with the single "beauty&thebeat" in May 2018, alongside Yves, Chuu, and Olivia Hye. She then made her full group debut with Loona in August 2018 on the album [+ +]. Over the next five years, she participated in all of Loona's releases, including [X X], [#], [12:00], and [&], which charted on Billboard's World Albums chart. After legal disputes ended Loona's activities under Blockberry Creative, Go Won joined five former bandmates to form Loossemble, debuting in September 2023 with the self-titled album Loossemble. The group has since released One of a Kind (2024) and continues to tour and release music.[edit]

Go Won is perceived as gentle, sweet, and slightly mysterious. Her aesthetic leans toward dreamy, ethereal concepts, often incorporating butterflies and soft colors. She engages warmly with fans on Instagram under the handle @novvog, where she shares behind-the-scenes photos and personal updates. The Loona fandom, known as Orbits, and Loossemble's fandom, C.L.U, appreciate her consistent, graceful stage presence and her genuine interactions.[edit]

Go Won's fanbase is woven into the fabric of one of K-pop's most organized and devoted fandoms, Orbit. While she has no individually named fandom, her fans, as Orbits, are known for their lightning-fast crowdfunding, coordinated streaming pushes, and elaborate birthday projects. For Go Won specifically, fans affectionately celebrate her 'crunchy' vocal tone and the butterfly motif from her solo debut, often creating fan art and banners that echo her ethereal aesthetic. Her Instagram, @novvog, serves as a direct line to her 377,000 followers, where she shares personal updates and behind-the-scenes glimpses.

As of August 2026, iFANN's Global Fame Engine has evaluated Go Won, but she does not currently hold a placement in the published rankings, neither the Global Top 1,000 nor any Top-100 scope list. Her fame remains significant within the K-pop sphere, yet the global ranking landscape has not yet placed her among the top tier. The fanbase, while passionate, has no formal documented name, and her impact is measured through the collective might of Orbit and her own dedicated following.[edit]

Go Won's stage name translates to 'high garden' or 'noble garden' in Korean. She has a pet dog named Ddo-ri. She enjoys drawing and painting in her free time. Her signature concept often involves butterfly motifs and soft, pastel aesthetics. She is known for her unique vocal color, often described as sweet and airy.

One of the most surreal legends surrounding Go Won is her connection to Grimes. In May 2020, Grimes publicly stated that Go Won is the godmother of her son X Æ A-Xii, the child she had with Elon Musk. The revelation came after their collaboration on LOONA yyxy's 'love4eva' in 2018, and it stunned both K-pop and mainstream audiences, making it one of the most iconic and frequently cited facts about her.

Another piece of fan lore involves a story from the comments of her debut music video 'One & Only,' where a fan recounted a tale of Go Won finding a crying little boy who said he 'was not good enough to be a rapper.' Though likely apocryphal, the story has become a quirky favorite among Orbits.[edit]

Go Won keeps her family life private. No details about her parents or siblings have been publicly disclosed. She has a pet dog named Ddo-ri, whom she occasionally features on social media.[edit]

Go Won is closely associated with her fellow Loona and Loossemble members, particularly Yves, Chuu, and Olivia Hye from the Loona yyxy unit. She also has strong ties to the wider Loona lineup: Heejin, Hyunjin, Haseul, Yeojin, Vivi, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, Choerry, and Hyeju.[edit]

Go Won has no publicly confirmed romantic relationships. As a K-pop idol, her personal dating life has not been reported. She is currently single as of 2025.[edit]

iFANN currently estimates Go Won's net worth at $1 million. Her primary income comes from her music career with Loossemble and former earnings from Loona, including album sales, touring, and merchandise. As a member of a mid-tier K-pop group, her individual share is modest compared to top-tier acts. She also earns from brand endorsements and social media promotions.[edit]
