BIOGRAPHY
Jung Chul did not debut as a soloist. He was actually part of a group, "Q.Q.Q.". Jung Chul debuted at the age of 19 with the song "Now and Forever". Unlike his young and smart appearance, his music bears heavy volume with his grave tone. Rarely for a newcomer, all of Jung Chul's recording works for his debut album were done at the Studio Valley in Los Angeles, California. Jung Chul’s type of music can be categorized as pop ballad. In a calm and strongly appealing voice, Jung Chul sang about love, friendship and good-byes in his album. He made himself more well-known among pop music fans by participating in the OST of the television drama ‘Sangdoo, Let’s Go To School’, starring Rain. Jung Chul's song, "My Love", featured in the drama and gained good response from viewers and listeners. In March 2005, Jung Chul released his second official album entitled ‘Hear'. This time, Jung Chul presented himself with a simpler and drier voice than in his debut album in which he added more techniques. Separating himself from soul music, the major trend of local pop music, Jung Chul focused on a masculine and rough way of singing, strictly avoiding decorative elements in voice like vibrations. Jung Chul is the son of Nami, one of the top female Korean singers in the late 1980s and ’90s.
