HISTORY
G.o.d. is a group debuted with the song “To My Mother” also known as the so-called “The Jajangmyeon Song.” Singer Park Jin-young was the producer for the group in which 5 members, Park Joon-hyung, Ahn Danny, Yoon Gye-sang, Sohn Ho-young and Kim Tae-woo performed great musical and dance talents. Since their debut in 1999, the boy-band has been loved by fans in all age groups from teens to the middle-aged. Leader Park Joo-hyung is a rapper with a deep and low voice. Yoon Gye-sang is a high-tone rapper with a good sense of humor. Ahn Danny is Park Joon-hyung’s cousin who performs medium rap in the group. Sohn Ho-young is the vocalist for the band who is loved for his soft smile and voice. The leading vocalist Kim Tae-woo boasts great singing talent. Their musical style ranges from hip-hop, disco, latin, punk and R&B to pop ballads. Since their debut, the band has been enjoying steady popularity for its diversity in musical style. In 2002, g.o.d. participated in MTV Asia Music Awards as the Korean representative. In April of the same year, the band also participated in the official album for the 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan, “True East Side.” From July that year, the band embarked on a long journey of a 100-day concert. The series of concert ended in March of 2003. In December of 2004, Yoon Gye-sang left the group temporarily to do his military service. As of January 2005, g.o.d. is actively appearing on air performing songs in their 6th album, “An Ordinary Day.”

Danny worked on Music Camp as an MC with Ock Ju Hyun. He also did his radio show "Kiss the Radio". When he left Musci Camp, Bi took over his place.

Kyesang worked on his acting career. He was on a couple of dramas including "Sister in Law is 19" and "Ban Jun".

Joon lost his grandmother during their time off.

Taewoo focused on his health and lost some weight.

Taewoo, Joon and Hoi spent time in the USA, to rest and later to record chapter 6. Danny's parts of the recording were added in Korea. Hoi trained under voice coach Jodeci for extra help with his vocals for chapter 6.

The god members faced some major challenges during their time away. First there were very unpleasant contract negotiations with their management company. For the past few albums, god had been managed by Sidus, though Taewoo was signed under JYP Entertainment (JYP a.k.a. Park Joon Young writes and produces much of god's albums, and he is a good friend of Joon's). As their contract expiry approached, Sidus stopped promoting god and they fell out of the limelight (chapter 5). Joon and Hoi decided to jump ship and join Taewoo under JYP Entertainment. Danny and Kyesang resigned under Sidus. Because that contract problem was drawn out, god was forced to stay in the background for a while.

The second major challenge the members faced was the departure of Kyesang. His departure seemed quite abrupt and unexpected. But the remaining god members put on a brave face and persevered, pledging their support to Kyesang. In a statement released by the group, they said "When a member leaves a group, it can feel as if there is a huge empty space, but the remaining members are working twice as hard to make up for the difference."

These challenges also consumed a lot of god's "time off" between the 100 day concert and the release of chapter 6.

But its great to see them back, they are moving forward and leaving their difficulties behind them. While they are not the same without Kyesang, the heart of god is still there so they are still my favorite Korean group.


Host- this is mnet 10 stars- we’ve spent time with 9 of them and now we
have 10. the final star. I don’t have tot tell you who they are do it?
with friendly smiles and friendly hearts, and warm songs, mnets 10th star…
g…o..d

Than it goes through their hit song from each album

Chapter1- To mother
Chapter2- love and remember
Chapter 3- Good bye
Chapter 4- Gil- road
Chapter5- letter
Chapter 6- Ordinary day

1999- producer park jin young puts together a good group- grove overdose…g.o.d

than vo lady lists the member- they were assembled in 1997 and 2 years
later their dreams came true when they debuted in 1999.


The title song- to mother—a warm song about the love of parents—to mother
became the first impression.

2nd album title song- love and remember and the song yah-soo, god gave
fans some good songs (?)

performances…

danny at point point tells the audience to scream… than says- this is the
reason fan god is the best!

Yooki-ilgil—the real drama with jaemin…
The drama showed the members their love for jaemin and their behavior
was so natural (came easy). They say good bye- so sad…

Viewers fell in love with yooki-ilgi

Than it lists their awards in 2000
Mnet music fest male group

Taewoos main vocals on good bye is heart wrenching

The gospel song- one candle light-- totally don’t get what she says here…

2001- a special day for god- their first concert (for the album, I assume)

hoyoung- I was so nervous, my knees were weak- thank you and love you.

--la vida loca—

than she lists the concert cities…
2001 they win the mtv viewer’s choice award.

It’s reported in seoul sports (newspaper) the unbelievable news that joon
is leaving the group… the fans ban together… fan god doesn’t want him to
leave… they reveal reasons he should leave (or get kicked out- don’t get
it all) the members gather for a news conference without joon… they
reveal that they didn’t know about joons exist…
Taewoo- we didn’t know of any kicking out of anyone… but It would be a
lie to day that I didn’t feel nothing was wrong
Hoyoung goes into that thing about his bright smile- so bizarre…

Hours later, joon has a press conference- he is hard pressed to find words…
Joon cries…

Fans oppose joon’s exit…

After a year, the fans start to regard the band again- the drama was over-
the band stood behind joon.

Than she does into the various songs on the album—blah blah blah

God gives the fans a present- the good book- a series of god pictures…
Business man, taewoo
Doctor, hoyoung
Violinist danny
Auto racer kyesung
Mechanic joon
(I don’t understand if this is their dream if they weren’t a singer or what
they thought they’d end up doing if they weren’t singers(?))

they win more awards—including the daesang in 2002

more perky host girl… god has a world cup memory

they became world cup representatives-- they try new things, contributing
to the Champion OST (excellent movie btw) and the 100day human concert.

Than it goes onto chapter5—I think she says that their broadcast perf. Are limited for the promotion for this album… letter shows their color in typical
god style…

Goes thru various concert perfs.—they look like they are having so much
FUN!!!

Another news of exiting- the fans are nervous. Nothing is confirmed.
(this is the spilt to jyp) danny and kyesung pursue individual interests-
danny radio program kiss the radio allows people to meet god members…
it may be just danny but the whole group is present…

Press conference for 6jib

Instead of 5 there is 4… but it’s not that anyone was kicked out- the group
supported kyesungs departure to acting. (danny looks embarrassed when
joon shows off his t-shirt)
The group gathers to support kyesung.

God’s 6jib showcase—
Taewoo- when I give the signal, you have to sing it load, we aren’t going to
use the mics so you have to be loud!
Audience- YES!
Hoyoung- we aren’t going to sing it for you
Taewoo- we’re not going to sing it! (with them)

The showcase shows off the movie- ordinary day… the scenario matches
their album…
Danny- yous aw the movie? How was it? did you see me? I was in it,
didn’t you see me? You didn’t see me? It’s bunk! I’m not in it!

During the concert- they look for kyesung- taewoo wants the spotlight on kyesung!
Taewoo- kyesung, where are you?!

With kyesang gone, they have to work 5% harder… they will have to fill the space that kyesung left behind so that god can be 100%… god is a special
group… to put it exactly they are a consistent group… the warm feeling they started with the loving song to mother to the tending of jaemin to banning
together for joon to projects programs- like brothers, they fill the hearts of
the people… and than- I totally don’t understand but it’s a bunch of good
things about god…

KyeSang is leaving GOD. He's going to act in a banjun drama and then he will begin his military service later this year. The rest of GOD will release the album as planned, but without KyeSang.

May I ask what G.O.D actually stands for?

I like their music, but never knew what the group name was

I've heard it stands for Groove Over Dose? I think that's pretty catchy. Ah, I love them during their 4th album, so hot! Too bad Kye Sang left, I thought he was the hottest, but not that much talent. I love Ho Young's and Taewoo's voices. *Swoons*

it kinda sucks to see GOD lose one of their main singers. But i guess that is part of the music industry. blush

G.O.D.¡¯s Kim Tae-woo to Donate Birthday Party Proceeds to UNICEF
05.04.05



G.O.D. member Kim Tae-woo, 24, will hold a mini-concert May 5 at Kwangwoon University at 4 p.m. to celebrate his birthday, which falls on May 12. He will invite 550 people who have agreed to donate a total of 55 million won to UNICEF to benefit children all over the world on Children¡¯s Day. Kim says in doing so he wants to pay back all the love he has received from his fans so far.

Kim is staging his first solo concert six years since G.O.D.¡¯s debut. The concert will consist of three parts. The first two parts will include Kim¡¯s ¡°frank talk¡± section and a ¡°self-camera¡± piece showing him not a G.O.D. member but as an individual artist. In the third part of the concert Kim will perform solo as well as sing with some surprise guests.

god Is Dead
October 12, 2005

The Korean boy band god -- pronounced G-O-D, for groove over dose -- is no more. The group, which captured the hearts of well nigh the entire country after their debut in 1999, at a press conference on Wednesday morning said their upcoming concert series "The Last" will, as the name suggests, be their last, as will their most recent album "Into the Sky", their seventh.

The five-member group consisting of Kim Tae-woo, Danny Ahn, Park Joon-hyung, Son Ho-young and Yoon Kye-sang has been plagued by rumors of an impending break-up since the end of 2003. After member Yoon Kye-sang left for Korea's mandatory military service in November last year, the band kept on performing, but last May another member, Son Ho-young, caused controversy when it was thought he would try to use his dual citizenship to dodge the draft. However, Son later announced he will serve. Kim Tae-woo, who passed his medical with flying colors, announced he intends to join up in the same group as band-mate Son, making it impossible for the band to go on.

On Oct. 28, god will release their seventh and final album and hold a series of 20 concerts from Nov. 10 to Dec. 11, four times a week from Thursday to Sunday, at Olympic Hall in Seoul Olympic Park. “The fact that all our members are heading off for the Army is definitely the biggest reason that we can't continue, but we also felt that we all just needed a break because we have been running nonstop since our debut,” the group said. “We do not want to use the word ‘break up.’ Even though we can't say when, someday we will get together again to play music.”

Very talented and very funny character. He can go far.... He got the talent to become actor.

Singer Son Ho-young to Go Solo

September 4, 2006

Singer Son Ho-young, a member of the male group G.O.D., will go solo through a showcase concert on September 12.

Son will present some songs from his solo debut album, including “I Cry” and “Yes,” at the concert, which will be held at the Seoul Fashion Art Hall in Dongdaemun, Seoul. The title song “I Cry,” a lyric ballad, highlights the powerful voice of Son, who can sing three octaves. The medium-tempo funky style “Yes” is a dance song with a pounding beat.

Son has reportedly abandoned his old singing style which he used for the last seven years during his G.O.D. days, and acquired a totally new style for the solo album.

Son said, “I’m more nervous than when I debuted as a member of G.O.D. I’m afraid of presenting a performance alone without the other members. But I will show fans everything I have as a musician at the concert.”

Other G.O.D. members like Park Jun-hyung, Kim Tae-woo and Danny Ahn, and his close celebrity friends including singer Oak Joo-hyun and actress Jo Yeo-jung, will appear in the concert as guests to congratulate Son. Comedian Jung Jun-ha will host the show.

OMG! I was wondering is anyone has their MV called "2love"? I have been searching for it everywhere....

Anyways...GOD was my introduction to k-pop....I feel in love with "Gil"....It's sad to know that Kyesang has left to pursue an acting career. I have seen him in "sister-in-law" as well and he has got the cutest SMILE ever. I think that was one of the reason I watched the series in the first place....has anyone seen "flying boys". Kyesang and lee junki are in there. They are ballet dancers...cute movie....

I didn't know that GOD came to the US. When? I can't believe I can miss something so exciting as that.....Isn't Ho Young originally from the US?

To my knowledge, Hoyoung and Danny were born in the US but were raised in Korea. Joonhyung was born and raised in California.

Just a little update on the members:

Hoyoung: he debuted as a solo artist and his album hit #1. you can catch all of his solo performances on youtube.

Danny: he has stopped his activities as a DJ for Kiss The Radio station. he has stated that he wants to get into acting now.

Kyesang: he left god in 2004 and acted in a movie, Flying Boys and a drama, My Sister In Law Is 19. Both garnered him alot of attention as his acting is pretty good. He even got the best new actor award for his role in Flying Boys. shortly afterwards, he enlisted in the army but will be released this December. Currently, he's what you call an "entertainment soldier" and he serves as a VJ for an army music show.

Taewoo: after recording many successful duets and collaborations with various artists, he is deciding on releasing a solo album in the upcoming months. Before the year ends, he will enlist in the army.

Joon: I have no idea what he's up to but I assume he's relaxing in sunny California.

Hi,

Anyone knws where to get a hold of their lyrics and translation?

Thanks!

WOW... its been so long since i have listened to any G.O.D. songs.... from what i remember they were somewhat popular a while back right????

Does anyone know the title of this song? I don’t what album it’s from. The MV is about a boy and a girl from a foster house. The girl has a birthmark kind of near her forehead. Two parents came to the foster house and buy her and left the boy. I believe when the boy is big, he’s one of the singers from GOD. They finally met at the end but he doesn’t know because she put makeup over the birthmark.

Vanness Wu also have a version of this song. His song is called “NI BU AI Wo.”

if my memory serves me correct, god was the most popular boy group from 1999-2003. their peak year was in 2001-2002 during their 4th album activities. Popularity wise, they were only second to HOT.



I think the song you're talking about is called I love you and remember. there is a guy running throughout the entire video right? that guy is yoon kyesang, a member of god. that song is the title song from their second album. if you want to be 100% correct, just go to youtube.com, then type in the search box, g.o.d love and remember. that video should pop up. hope that helps.

how bout trying aheeyah.com

u migh wan to try our skybluefriends forum too.. we do have some translation and lyrics..
