He moved to the United States at the age of 10 to continue his studies.
He started playing the piano and the trombone at an early age.

During his high school years, he performed with his high school teachers at jazz bars in San Francisco.
After high school, he moved to Los Angeles, where he studied music at the University of Southern California.
However, he withdrew from the university after his first semester and moved back to Taiwan to begin his career as a singer.
Yen-J who comes from a family of doctors, was given a deadline of two years to start off his music career by his father, who wanted him to study medicine.
Seeing how successful he has been since his decision to become a singer, his father has since changed the deadline to ten years, instead of two.
He is known for being greatly influenced by past loves and stated that all the songs from his first album <謝謝你的美好>(Thanks for your greatness) were written for his ex-girlfriend, with another ex-girlfriend being the inspiration for his third album <單細胞>.
After only three months, he was able to land a contract with a recording company in 2008, with Taiwan's Bin music.
In January 2010, he released an EP, Trapped in Taipei (困在台北, Kùn Zài Táiběi) and went on various live gigs around Taiwan to be able to get used to performing by himself, and to raise audience awareness.
Yen-J states that learning how to perform live was not enjoyable in the beginning as he was only learning the ropes, but he gradually learned to enjoy performing live and interacting with the audience.

It peaked at number 2 on the G-Music's Mandarin album charts a month after its release.
