How Old Are the TXT Members? Ages and Birthdays (2026)

The TXT members age range runs from 24 to 27 as of November 9, 2026. Yeonjun is the oldest at 27, and Hueningkai is the youngest at 24. Soobin turns 26 on December 5, so the lineup changes soon.

TXT, short for Tomorrow X Together, is a five-member group from Big Hit Music that debuted on March 4, 2019, according to Wikipedia. This guide gives every member’s birthday, current age, and age at debut, plus the Korean age numbers that confuse many fans. It also looks at how age shapes the group’s roles and how old each member was at major releases.

TXT Members Age and Birthdays at a Glance

Every age below is calculated for November 9, 2026, using the birth dates listed by K-Pop Answers and Karchives. Both sites agree on all five dates.

Age Order From Oldest to Youngest

From oldest to youngest, the order is Yeonjun, Soobin, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Hueningkai. Yeonjun is the only member born in 1999. The other four were born between 2000 and 2002.

Two pairs share an age right now, so birth dates settle the order. Soobin and Beomgyu are both 25, but Soobin is older by just over three months. Taehyun and Hueningkai are both 24, and Taehyun is older by about six months.

The average age of the five members is exactly 25. That comes from adding 27, 25, 25, 24, and 24 and dividing by five. The median age is also 25.

How Old Each TXT Member Is

1: Yeonjun: 27 Years Old

Yeonjun was born on September 13, 1999, in Seoul, and he is a Virgo. He turned 27 in September 2026 and turns 28 on September 13, 2027. He is the oldest member of the group.

He was 19 when TXT debuted. K-Crush reports that he joined Big Hit in 2014 and trained for about five years, which earned him the nickname Legendary Trainee. StyleCaster adds that he lived briefly in California as a child.

In July 2026, Yeonjun spoke on KBS2’s The Seasons about the demanding trainee years behind that nickname, according to Sports Kyunghyang.

2: Soobin: 25 Years Old

Soobin was born on December 5, 2000, in Ansan, according to StyleCaster, and his zodiac sign is Sagittarius. He turns 26 on December 5, 2026, the next birthday in the group. He was 18 at debut.

Soobin is the leader even though Yeonjun is older. K-Pop Answers says the members and staff chose him in a vote, and that Soobin himself voted for Yeonjun. K-Crush notes that he has held the leader role since debut.

3: Beomgyu: 25 Years Old

Beomgyu was born on March 13, 2001, in Daegu, according to StyleCaster, and he is a Pisces. He turned 25 in March 2026 and turns 26 in March 2027. He was 17 when TXT debuted, only nine days before his 18th birthday.

K-Crush describes him as the group’s guitarist. Wikipedia’s page for the 2025 album The Star Chapter: Together lists him among its producers.

4: Taehyun: 24 Years Old

Taehyun was born on February 5, 2002, in the Gangnam district of Seoul, and he is an Aquarius. He turned 24 in February 2026 and turns 25 on February 5, 2027. He was 17 at debut.

K-Crush describes him as one of the group’s main vocalists. He is the second youngest member, about six months older than Hueningkai.

5: Hueningkai: 24 Years Old

Hueningkai was born on August 14, 2002, and he is a Leo. He turned 24 in August 2026 and turns 25 in August 2027. He was only 16 at debut and holds the maknae role as the youngest member.

K-Pop Answers notes that he is half Korean and half German. His older sister J’Lea is a soloist, and his younger sister Huening Bahiyyih is known from the group Kep1er.

Age at Debut: A Group That Grew Up in Public

TXT debuted on March 4, 2019, with the EP The Dream Chapter: Star and the single “Crown,” according to Wikipedia. Yeonjun was 19, Soobin was 18, Beomgyu and Taehyun were 17, and Hueningkai was 16.

“Crown” opened at number one on Billboard’s World Digital Songs chart, according to Wikipedia. The same page says the group later topped Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart, and a separate Wikipedia list counts 64 award wins and 195 nominations.

That puts the average debut age at 17.4. Three of the five members were still under 18 on debut day. K-Pop Answers says the members are a good bit younger than BTS and close in age to fourth generation groups such as Itzy.

More than seven years later, all five are in their mid-twenties. Several members debuted as minors and are now headlining a world tour.

How Old Each Member Was at Major Releases

The table below shows each member’s age on the day of four milestones. Release dates come from Wikipedia and The Korea Herald.

ReleaseDateYeonjunSoobinBeomgyuTaehyunHueningkai
The Dream Chapter: StarMarch 4, 20191918171716
The Name Chapter: TemptationJanuary 27, 20232322212020
The Star Chapter: TogetherJuly 21, 20252524242322
Perfect StormNovember 16, 20262725252424

Hueningkai went from 16 to 24 across these four releases. Yeonjun was 19 on debut day and is 27 on the day Perfect Storm arrives, eight years later. The table also shows how close the group is in age, since the gap between the oldest and youngest member never changes.

Korean Age vs International Age

Some fan pages list ages one or two years higher than the table above. The reason is Korean age, which counts a baby as one year old at birth and adds a year every January 1.

South Korea moved most legal and administrative uses to international age on June 28, 2023, according to the Ministry of Government Legislation. Fans and older articles still use Korean age often.

In 2026, the Korean ages are 28 for Yeonjun, 27 for Soobin, 26 for Beomgyu, and 25 for both Taehyun and Hueningkai. This article uses international age throughout.

To convert, subtract one from the Korean age if the member’s birthday has already passed this year, and subtract two if it has not. Soobin is a good test case. His Korean age is 27, and his birthday has not come yet, so his international age is 25.

Why Some Sites Show a Different Age on Birthdays

K-Pop Answers states that its age articles follow Eastern Time and update around midnight there. In winter, Korea is 14 hours ahead of Eastern Time, so a birthday starts in Seoul long before it starts in North America.

That gap explains why a site using Korean time can show Soobin as 26 while a site using Eastern Time still says 25 for several hours. Neither page is wrong. They count the same birthday from different clocks.

The Age Gaps Inside TXT

The widest gap is between Yeonjun and Hueningkai, who are two years and eleven months apart. The gaps between neighbors in the age order are much smaller.

  • Yeonjun and Soobin: about 15 months
  • Soobin and Beomgyu: just over three months
  • Beomgyu and Taehyun: almost eleven months
  • Taehyun and Hueningkai: about six months

Taehyun and Hueningkai were both born in 2002. In Korean social custom, people born in the same year are generally treated as peers.

Zodiac Signs and Birth Months

Each member has a different zodiac sign. Yeonjun is a Virgo, Soobin is a Sagittarius, Beomgyu is a Pisces, Taehyun is an Aquarius, and Hueningkai is a Leo. Karchives lists the same signs.

Their birthdays also fall in five different months: February, March, August, September, and December. No two members share a birth month.

Where TXT Sits Next to BTS

K-Pop Answers notes that TXT was the first boy group Big Hit Music debuted after BTS in 2013. Roughly six years separated the two debuts. K-Crush places TXT in K-pop’s fourth generation.

The age gap shows in the lineup. Every TXT member was 19 or younger on debut day, and the oldest, Yeonjun, was born in 1999.

Why Soobin Leads While Yeonjun Is the Oldest

In K-pop, age decides how members speak to each other. Younger members use polite speech and call older ones hyung, while the youngest is called the maknae.

TXT breaks the usual pattern because the leader is not the oldest. Soobin leads, while Yeonjun is the oldest. Members and staff picked Soobin in a vote, which means age did not decide the role.

Next Birthdays and Age Changes

Here is when each member’s age changes next:

  • Soobin: December 5, 2026 (turns 26)
  • Taehyun: February 5, 2027 (turns 25)
  • Beomgyu: March 13, 2027 (turns 26)
  • Hueningkai: August 14, 2027 (turns 25)
  • Yeonjun: September 13, 2027 (turns 28)

Soobin’s birthday arrives first, 26 days after November 9, and it falls on a Saturday in 2026. The longest stretch without a TXT birthday runs from Beomgyu’s March 13 to Hueningkai’s August 14, about five months.

What TXT Is Doing Right Now

TXT will release its ninth EP, Perfect Storm, on November 16, 2026, according to The Korea Herald. The EP has six tracks, and Korea Daily reports a comeback event the same day. The group’s last Korean release was the eighth EP, 7th Year: A Moment of Stillness in the Thorns, in April, per The Korea Times.

Before the EP, the Steal the Wind world tour opens with three Seoul shows on November 13, 14, and 15. The Korea JoongAng Daily reports further dates across Asia, Japan, North America, and Europe through June 2027. North American shows run from May 4 to May 25, 2027.

The group also recorded a performance in a New York studio for the 2026 Global Citizen Festival after weather canceled the live show, according to The Korea Herald.

Member Ages on the Steal the Wind Tour

The tour runs long enough for several birthdays to land in the middle of it. When the North American shows begin on May 4, 2027, Yeonjun will be 27, Soobin and Beomgyu will both be 26, Taehyun will be 25, and Hueningkai will be 24.

Hueningkai turns 25 on August 14, 2027, after the last Europe and Hong Kong dates listed by the Korea JoongAng Daily. Yeonjun turns 28 a month later. By then, every member will be at least 25.

This TXT members age list reflects November 9, 2026 and changes next on December 5.
