DEBUT: VALENTINES DAY FEBRUARY 14TH 2008


Highly anticipated in kpop's music scene comes the newest male solo singer: 18 year old AJOO who is said to have good looks, a fantastic voice and great dancing abilities.

Having trained under STAM Entertainment for 6 years (also the same label as female artist Younha), he is to debut on Valentines Day with his single '1st KISS'.
1st Kiss was written by Park Hwayobi who got the inspiration from Ajoo's lips.

AJOO has received a lot of support from his senior Younha who eventually became his piano teacher.


He will be on Mnet's 'Ajoo's Suspicious Fanclub' on Feb 11th 08



AJOO's music genre is a combination of teen rock/pop with a heavy emphasis on band sounds.

Album DL LINK & MV



I cant wait for ajoo's debut! The chorus of 1st Kiss is really catchy and he seems talented what with him composing music and playing the piano. And he's only 17! Same age as me. (Well he's 18 if we're going by the korean calendar).
Haha and not to mention he's quite cute. Although a lot of people have compared him to Jaejoong and se7en.....but im not seeing it.
I guess his lips are similar to se7en's! loool.gif
kiribyi
I can't wait till his debut! He seems very promising. LOL, and he's SO cute! And no wonder the songwriter got inspiration from his lips... look at them! They're so cute.. and KISSABLE!
The preview looks good. I love the song already! It looks like they shot at the same place as Tony Ahn's 'Yutzpracachia's love' MV and Super Junior's 'U' MV... Very nice.
And since Younha is his mentor, he should be exceptionally good thumbsup.gif
I can't wait to see you, A-Joo!! I'm already your fan! We fans are behind you 100%, right guys??
funkindagirl
^ ohh is it really the same place as suju's U mv...haha i was wondering why it felt so familiar but i couldnt put my finger on it.
just 2 days 2 go till his debut now =D
lol and yeh about the lips..def agree. dnt see many guys with such luscious lips. xD
tofu_n_soysuace
he is very cute!
keke he's giving off a "leehom" aura, don't you think funkindagirl?
piano, sings, composes? looks like he has to potential to grow on me.
anestel
Ah, this guy is my new obsession I swear. I finally got to hear his single and O_O I'm so impressed. He's not just another pretty face with no real talent. :3 I can't wait to see more from him. His MV was so great and the Mnet debut was adorkable.
-live urls are not allowed in your usergroup-

I don't know if anyone's seen it but his full MV for First Kiss is out now~!
anestel
Ah...that last picture. I haven't seen it yet. :/ He's so pretty why must he be so tempting. ><' He's so young, he really doesn't look as young as he is. I thought he was like 19/20 when i first saw him for real o.O

1ST KISS MV



(not a song that best shows off his vocals but then i think debut songs rarely do, he's still got plenty of time to prove his talent. and i love this song anyway, damn catchy! ooo plus i dig his dancing)

I think it does as well. :3 There are a lot of guys out there that look/have looked a lot more girly and feminine than he does. :3

Yes he does. >:{ Hopefully he won't do that ridiculous shaved/partially shaved with shapes in the hair, hairdo (like...Kangin.....and Moon Hee Jun...etc)...

oh god i hope not...not kangin's hair...that was awful...
haha trying to imagine him with a buzz cut tho..

Yeah...Lee Jun Ki...Kim Hee Chul~ lol.

He would look so horrible with that style. @_@......*thinks of Ajoo with short hair* i can't imagine it. It would look so odd with his pretty face.

haha heechul! hopefully ajoo doesnt ACT and dress as feminine as him.
junki's alright cos he actually acts very boyish but knows when to be mature...(and he's much more 'masculine' looking with his shorter hair)
buzz cut would be wrong but if short like junki i could see how that would work.
anestel
From what I've seen in his mnet debut thing it seems he's rather boyish and a bit arrogant though...

I don't think I've seen Junki since he had long hair?

wow his MV was the most arrogant video i've ever seen. awesome, and very realistic.

lmao sexy for someone with no eyelids? girl u crack me up!
i didnt even notice he didnt have any...

yuuup! lol i searched around everywhere i went on korean sites and just clicked around everywhere...lol trial and error.
and then i got a whole bunch of stuff and got someone to translate it.
grr..but ive found at least 5 diff. sites/blogs that have just copied everything i wrote and not even credited! and i can tell cos i put my own little opinions in like i dunno if he's got brothers and how i loved his flip in the vid...and they took it all! LOL..i mean if ur gona steal at least be subtle about it and dont take all my comments about his lips being like se7en's and all. lol

but anyway yeh its a very catchy song...should listen to his other one...i think its even better

really? where do u see the arrogance?
i didnt notice anything in particular in the mnet vid that made me think that...
altho i do see he has a lot of confidence in himself...
and what little of his live singing i heard, seemed to be good, since he was dancing too.

u havent? ooo he looks sooo much better! i was drooling over junki in TODAW.

Maybe I was mistaking confidence for arrogance, but I can't remember now that it's been a while since I watched it. He just had this air of arrogance to me, but I don't find that an exactly bad thing. Most celebrities are narcissists (scientifically proven fact I could cite some sources but it'd take a while online). He is very good at what he does. I can't wait to see a full live performance. :3

I'm going to have to look him up. @________@

yeh i dnt think arrogance (in moderation) is a bad thing all the time...as long as its warrented.
it just puts me off if someone really doesnt have the talent & yet goes around thinking they're extremely important.

Omg........that live perf was awesome. At first I thought he was lip syncing but he's really not is he? That's so unusual for Korean singers... The dance sequence towards the end is just odd...it doesn't fit the rest of the song and it's like....why? I still love the performance though.

Too much arrogance is just annoying. :3 He has the talent to warrant some arrogance in my opinion.

And then there's this performance from the 23rd. gahhhh this song is so addicting:

Kelsx
I actually think he is really good looking smile.gif and can't believe he is actually younger than me.. seeing as Im born at the end of june. so he is actually 17, so training from 11? right gosh must of had so much pressure, a completely different type of childhood then. Well lets hope he can succeed.. i actually like his voice very much too smile.gif

I am officially a fan biggrin.gif

A-JOO’s unique voice



Last February 22 at KBS “Music Bank,” Epik High member Tablo, who is an MC of the show, expressed how he is impressed of new singer A-JOO’s voice. A-JOO had his debut performance of “First Kiss” on this episode.

“He has a very attractive voice that has a unique timbre to it. I felt the difference of A-JOO’s voice against other singers’. I’m looking forward to his next activities,” Tablo said.

Music fans were also all-praise for the new singer and posted comments like “He’s got vocals that can’t be easily heard from guys,” “He’s like a comet that appeared in the male solo singer market,” and “His style and vocals are fresh” in music sites like Melon and Dosirak and fan sites.

Meanwhile, STAM Entertainment, A-JOO’s label, commented that A-JOO’s voice is a product of a 6-year training.

“There is a charm to his unique sweet voice and A-JOO made an effort to maintain the same voice during his puberty. His voice’s timbre is what sets him apart from other male singers,” STAM Entertainment commented.

Ajoo's thoughts on his debut stage on the 22nd in KBS “Music Bank,” and on the 23rd in MBC “Music Core.”

“As this is my debut stage, I’m tense and nervous but I practiced hard to present a great performance,” A-JOO said.

A-JOO put in his ideas and had an extensive acrobatic training for over a year for his debut performance.



(he must be pleased to get such praise from someone as talented as Tablo who recognises how good he is.)

[080228 letter] Mcountdown ends...

Hello~
Everyone~~~~~~~~~!! How have you been? ^^

All schedules ended and the tension lessens but I'm also a little tired.

But, my eyes glitter as I write again a letter for everyone +_+

Can you see my eyes??? ㅎㅎㅎ (Sorry..)

Today, I had my Mcountdown performance ^^

I wanted to show a better performance on stage but I wasn't able to do because of my injury.

I practiced until late at night yesterday but how was I?

But seeing more people than the last time gave me more energy

I felt better than the other day.

I wasn't able to see everyone while I was on the center stage but compared to the main stage, I was able to get closer to everyone and clearly hear your support~ ^^

Anyway, you came early even though the weather's chilly

Was it hard waiting in the cold?

Thank you very much~ Did you get sick? Don't get sick~!!

After finishing interviews, I came back to the office

I was told by the company staff that a fan from Thailand came.

At first, I thought it was a lie~ but when I saw the gift she gave me, it was then that I knew that they're telling the truth. ㅎㅎ

They said she came some time ago but it's very sad I wasn't able to meet her.

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you!!!!!

Though I don't know if you can read this message.

Really really thank you. (--)(__) You even looked for the office.

I'll never forget my first ever foreign fan. ^^



Recently, I've got into a new habit.

When I open the computer, the first thing I do is search for the latest live videos.

I've been logging in the homepage and blog.

Whenever I read everyone's messages, the tiredness flies away and I get more energy.

Thank you for all the energy you're giving me~ Thanks^^ Everyone!!

Sorry I can't reply to each one of you.

I'll just make up for it with a diary entry or letter in the homepage.

I'm writing so much that It's already late in the evening ㅠㅠ

I'm still not used to this writing thing

I wasn't aware that time has passed so quickly...

I'll go to sleep now ^^

Sweet dreams everyone!! Bye~ bye~

p.s : It's already spring but the winds are still cold so take care,

When you go to the main homepage, there's an advertisement about the fanclub, think of a cute name, ok?

I'll be waiting~!

i LOOVE that perf. i liked it better than the first one.
but i really liked what he was wearing =D
yeh and i have so much more respect for him that he sings live, i hope its not just a once in a blue moon (like with most SM artists)
hehe and he really does resemble se7en more and more in the fact that se7en is one of the rare koreans who always sings live.

oh yeh that dance sequence in the middle is just odd, it doesnt fit the song at all, but then ive heard a lot of korean songs like that where they just like to insert it just so they can show off their dance skills. but oh well. haha


firstname.lastname
oo i just discovered this guy recently xD man! i heard his songs everywhere but i had no idea that it was him singing it =O it's very addictive xD it's not very often that a new singer could look this good when they first debut ~_~
FlyingHearts
I hope he will become successful.

He reminds me of Se7en!!

BUt he is 17 right, turning 18 in July?
funkindagirl
^ yeh i hope so too. and there's a gap in kpop scene for him, as se7en's gone off to america

yup he's 17, its just in korea that he's considered 18
FlyingHearts
Thats for your reply Funkingagirl!!!

I hope for the success of se7en in America and AJoo in Korea. I really hope he do more promotion and within these two years tour asia. ahaha, big hope I know, but maybe I would see him, wait he would have to tour in america to see me.

funkindagirl
^ haha his lips are definitely a great asset of his.
