Jung Ji-hoon (Korean: 정지훈; born March 3, 2001), better known as Chovy, is a South Korean professional League of Legends player for Gen.G.

His career began in 2017 when he played for KeG Gwangju in the 2017 KeSPA Cup. The next year, he joined Griffin. He reached the 2017 LCK Finals in his rookie season, and at the end of the year, he won the 2018 KeSPA Cup.
