Moon Bin (Korean: 문빈; January 26, 1998—April 19, 2023), commonly referred to as Moonbin, was a South Korean singer-songwriter and actor under Fantagio. He was a member of the South Korean boy group ASTRO and the group’s sub-unit MOONBIN & SANHA. Prior to his career as a pop idol, he worked as a child actor and model, making his first known appearance in 2006 in TVXQ’s ’Balloons’ music video, portraying a young U-KNOW YUNHO. In 2009, he landed his first acting role in the Korean drama ‘Boys Over Flowers’, playing the younger version of Kim Bum's character. Moonbin became a trainee at Fantagio in fifth grade and joined the company's boy group project iTeen. He was introduced as the second trainee with the Fantagio iTeen Photo Test Cut. He debuted as a member of ASTRO on February 23, 2016, with the release of their debut EP, ’Spring Up’, with the lead single ’Hide & Seek’.

He returned to activities in February 2020 and was named as one of the new hosts of the music show Show Champion alongside his bandmate Sanha and VERIVERY’s Kangmin. Moonbin and Sanha later formed ASTRO’s first sub-unit MOONBIN & SANHA, releasing their debut EP ’IN-OUT’ on September 14, 2020. The unit's lead single, ’Bad Idea’, earned them their first music show win from The Show eight days later.
