it was good season with his mind and idea and healthier spirit

in earlier 90's in Korean Pop Music 

famous Recording Producer 'Shin Cheol' was very popular and 'BIG NAME'

from his idea and from his hands and from his ears 

and from his plan and from his sense and from his money 

Korean Music market and scene moved and turned 

he was DJ in night club around downtown in Seoul 

and he Debut as Singer and Duo 'Churi and Mie'

he spend time as Musician for few years 

and he turned his idea and his sense 

and he knew how to support dancers and Musicians 

and since long time ago he was so into "DANCE MUSIC"

and he start to put his nose to product sound for "DANCE MUSIC" 

and groups for "DANCE MUSIC" and teams for "DANCE MUSIC" 

and all about performance for "DANCE MUSIC" 

and he knew how to lead younger Musicians to support and look after 

and he brought many chance to make them Debut

DJ DOC, Goofy, Young Turks Club, J, Yang Pa, You Seung Joon.....

  

without those Musicians .........

unable to talk about 90's Korean Pop Music in South Korea 

many people thoughts 

he create and he opened up new page of Korean Dance Music Scene 

middle of 90......1996...... 

his choice was 'You Seung Joon'

who is 'You Seung Joon' ?

he's Korean.

he was born in South Korea 

and he moved to California U.S when he was teenager

he grew up in U.S 

and about when he was 20 years old .......

he send a little Video to agency in South Korea

and he wanted to have chance to Debut and Release Albums in South Korea  

and Korean Producers and Agency staffs picked him up 

he came to South Korea and Debut 

and "the Video before he Debut" ........it was unforgettable 

funny and something stupid 

but it was good to know about him and good to remember him and his name 

when he start his career at the first time it was not that easier 

but once or twice and later and later many people remain him and his sexy body 

and his dancing performance was excellent in that time 

and so many people likes him and "Exotic" 

he was complete different .......

fashion and idea and he was the person who experienced California

his look was young Korean boy but his mind and idea was American 

..........

and many times he came to talk shows in South Korea 

he told about his teenage life in U.S

and when he was younger U.S, he didn't go on well 

cause his English was not enough 

and many people talked about his look and color of his skin   

he didn't come to school as often and his life in U.S was not that good 

but in South Korea sine he back to South Korea

he was very kind for everybody 

and TV Broadcast staffs and many people liked him much 

and few month since he Debut 

he had many chance to promote himself and show him self

and his Second Single '가위' which means 'scissor' ..........

but in the meaning as exact was "nightmare" or something 

that Single got No.1 in whole Charts in Korea

and 3 years or 4 years maybe he was No.1 in Korean Pop Music 

he was TOP Star in Korea

but unfortunately he had big problem 

he grew up in U.S but his nationality was not American in that time 

and 'Ministry Of Military in South Korea' brought papers to him 

as come to Military Camp for Military Service

(in South Korea every young and healthier guys have to spend 2 years in Military) 

but first time when he have Military Draft 

he said and told that he will become a Military 

but later he left South Korea and in few weeks later he changed his nationality 

he changed his nationality, he became American Citizen, and later he avoid 

and he tried to return to South Korea but in the Airport officers blocked him 

and he back to California U.S

that happen was unforgettable in South Korean 

so many people remain that happen 

and all the Celebrities remembers and remain 

and that's the reason why Korean male Singers or actors they become a Military   

and unfortunately he can't comeback to South Korea again 

that point is very sensitive issue in South Korea

and unfortunately people don't seem to change their mind 

and people doesn't agree to comeback to South Korea

and people doesn't want him to comeback to South Korea

열정 

MELODY & LYRICS - LEE HYEONDO 

crazy fast rap + full Melody he chose 

Korean people called this kind of type of sound = "HIP HOP" 

this was usual and standard idea and nothing wrong to called this as "HIP HOP"

many Musicians and singers done in South Korea last 90's 

they might thought it's right 

most thing that i feel bad from him .........

this thing ......this point 

if he was from U.S 

and if he knew about Real Hip Hop or Original sound of Hip Hop 

then he had to keep it right and bring as cool 

but he just create and product as out of Real and brought as different 

but the sound was good ......

but many since he Release this kind of sound and introduce like this 

people thought and trust .........

this is such type as Hip Hop from U.S and Right Hip Hop or something
