BiographyMoon Tae-il (Korean: 문태일, born June 14, 1994), known mononymously as Taeil, is a South Korean singer. He was a member of the South Korean boy band NCT from 2016 until 2024, when Korean investigators tied him to a criminal sexual offense. He later pleaded guilty to the aggravated rape of a Chinese tourist and was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison.

After being accepted as a trainee by SM Entertainment in 2013, Taeil was introduced as a member of the company's pre-debut training team, SM Rookies. He later made his official debut as a singer in NCT's first sub-unit NCT U and as the lead vocalist of its Korean-based sub-unit NCT 127, in 2016. A standout and popular member of the group, Taeil broke the Guinness World Record for "Fastest time to reach 1 million followers on Instagram" after starting his account on July 6, 2021.

In June 2024, Taeil and two other people raped an intoxicated Chinese tourist they encountered at a bar. After a two month investigation tied Taeil to the case, he officially left NCT on August 28, 2024, later pleading guilty to the crimes. On July 10, 2025, Taeil was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison.
