Chou Tzu-yu, known professionally as Tzuyu, is a Taiwanese singer and dancer who rose to international fame as a member of the South Korean girl group TWICE, formed by JYP Entertainment through the 2015 survival show “Sixteen.” Born on June 14, 1999, in Tainan, Taiwan, Tzuyu moved to South Korea at a young age to pursue her dream of becoming a K-pop idol, becoming the only non-Korean member of TWICE at the time of debut.

TWICE debuted in October 2015 with “Like Ooh-Ahh” and quickly became one of the best-selling and most influential K-pop girl groups of all time. The group has released numerous hit songs including “Cheer Up,” “TT,” “What is Love?,” “Fancy,” and “I Can’t Stop Me.” Tzuyu has been recognized for her stunning visuals, earning her titles such as “Most Beautiful Face” on TC Candler’s annual list multiple times.

Tzuyu’s individual popularity, particularly in East Asia, has made her one of the most sought-after endorsement figures in the industry. She has secured deals with major brands across Taiwan, South Korea, and internationally. Her social media following is among the largest of any K-pop idol, giving her significant influence in the fashion and beauty sectors.

With TWICE’s continued success through sold-out stadium tours, platinum albums, and ongoing group and individual activities, Tzuyu’s net worth has grown steadily. As of 2026, her estimated net worth is approximately $10 million, reflecting her earnings from music, tours, endorsements, and individual projects.
