Jannabi (Korean: 잔나비; stylized in all caps) is a South Korean indie rock band formed in 2012 under the independent record label Peponi Music. The band currently consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Choi Jung-hoon and guitarist Kim Do-hyung. Originally a quintet, keyboardist Yoo Young-hyun left in 2019, drummer Yoon Kyul in 2021, and bassist Jang Kyung-joon in 2022.
