About Jin Dogg

Born 1990. Jin Dogg is a South Korean rapper and actor.

Jake Yoon (Born September 10, 1990), better known by his stage name Jin Dogg, is a Japanese rapper. The name Jin Dogg is derived from Snoop Dogg and the Korean Jindo dog (Korean: 진돗개; RR: Jindo-gae).

Early life Jake Yoon was born on September 10, 1990, in Osaka, Japan. His mother was a Korean immigrant, and his father a second-generation Korean living in Japan. Yoon grew up in Ikuno Ward in Osaka until nursery school, when he moved to Tennoji Ward. He was bullied in Tennoji Ward because there weren't many Koreans living in Japan at the time.

In his fifth year of elementary school, In middle school, from the second half of his second year to his third year, he came to like hip-hop. He often listened to Snoop Dogg, G-Funk, and Notorious B.I.G.

Around 2015、he hit it off with studio owner Young Yujiro (whose name at the time was Radoo). Around that time he was exposed to trap through Keith Ape and Okasian. This brought Jin Dogg's music closer to trap, which up until then was influenced primarily by G-Funk. The mixtape was made in a similar style to the first, but it was centered more around horror movie-like imagery. This album was also part of a duology, and the second entry "Blood&Bones (BONES)" was released on February 17, 2024. On August 15, 2025, Jin Dogg released his next album Pain Makes You Better.

Musical style Jin Dogg often does everything in the studio, without writing down lyrics. When he makes music, he focuses on emotion, and he considers music to be his own method of relieving stress. To him, rhyming is not as important as being satisfied with making the best use of the Kansai dialect in his style of rapping.

Jin Dogg cites Bones, Smokepurpp, and Ghostemane as his favorite artists. Additionally, he cites artists like ANARCHY, MACCHO, Kan a.k.a Gami, MessiahtheFly, Gizmo, and Bane as influences.
