My ambition was to become a singer when I was a kid, but my route to star hood came with a bit of faith and coincidence.
When I was 11 years old, my brother went for a talent quest audition organized by Korea entertainment agency, SM Entertainment.
SM was planning to produce an international superstar and wanted to train the prospect from young age, and my brother was asked if he got any younger siblings, and I was invited by SM for audition as well.. and I was chosen to be the future star.
My parents were persuaded to allow me to pursue my childhood dream of becoming a singer, and I started my training in singing, dancing and foreign languages. I was once sent to Japan to learn Japanese and sing & dance skills, and it was some of the toughest time I ever had.
I released my first Korean album, ID; Peace B in 2000 and immediately noticed by Japans Avex and signed a contract.
In March 2002, I became the first foreigner to top the Japan Oricon chart, with my debut Japanese album Listen to My Heart. The album was co-produced by Avex Japan and SM Korea, I showed my talent singing in English, Japanese and Korean.

GOD BLESS! AND MORE POWER...
