Disclosed are: a ring-shaped antenna which is formed in the form of a ring mounted between the housing of an ear module and the outer circumference of a coin-shaped battery and communicates with an antenna, mounted on another ear module, via NFMI; and a wireless earphone comprising the ring-shaped antenna. The disclosed ring-shaped antenna comprises: a first terminal sheet and a second terminal sheet, each extending from one side of a base sheet and having a terminal formed thereon; a plurality of front radiation patterns disposed apart from one another on the front surface of the base sheet; and a plurality of rear radiation patterns disposed apart from one another on the rear surface of the base sheet, wherein the plurality of front radiation patterns and the plurality of rear radiation patterns are connected through via-holes and thereby form an antenna pattern wound in the vertical direction of the base sheet.
