List of songs written by Jonghyun

South Korean singer and songwriter Kim Jong-hyun (most often credited as Jonghyun) has written 80 songs,[1] including music for his solo career, his band, and for other artists.

[9][10] In February 2014, Jonghyun started a songwriting corner titled "The Man Who Composes" on his MBC FM4U midnight radio show, Blue Night, where he wrote songs based on stories submitted by listeners.

[11] In 2015, he debuted as a solo artist with the release of the self-composed song "Déjà-Boo", accompanied by his first extended play, Base.

Jonghyun described the Story Op albums as showcasing a side that is "more ordinary and human", as opposed to his other work that presents an "idealized" version of himself.

[20] Jonghyun wrote songs for bandmate Taemin and labelmates Exo, as well as artists such as Son Dam-bi and Lim Kim.
