Biography

1989–2005: Early life

Jung Joon-young was born on February 21, 1989 in Jakarta-Indonesia. His father is an international business man who travels to many countries for his business. His family moved to China after living in Indonesia for five years and they lived there for a further five years. While his father was staying in China, his mother and brother moved to Europe. They lived in England and France until Jung turned 17. He couldn't enroll in a regular school due to frequent moves. He took private lessons for regular subjects such as math, English, violin, and piano and he also got his fourth degree black belt in Taekwondo.

2005–2007: Adolescence

When Joon Young became 17, he decided to go to the Philippines to do missionary work. He taught Taekwondo and music to the local children. He was a member of the choir which performed in front of the president of the Philippines, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. While teaching music with his guitar, he realized that his dream was to be a rock singer.

2007–2012: Career Beginnings

Before Superstar K4

His inspiration in becoming a rock singer arose and led him to move to South Korea the next year and soon signed to an entertainment agency (supposed to be Danal Entertainment which released Jung Joon-young's solo EP titled “Rock Trip” in 2010 as well as Digital Single “환상Fantasy“ in 2012).

In 2008, he was selected by Starkim Entertainment to be a main vocalist of an idol rock band, LEDApple.[6] [7] [8][9] As one of the original members, he went through the training process and even finished recording the debut album with the band. But, right before Led Apple’s debut in 2010, Starkim Entertainment discovered that Jung Joon Young was already under contract with the previous agency which refused to release him and, thus, Jung Joon Young was dropped from the idol rock band.[10]

In 2010, determined to make it in the music industry, Jung Joon Young dove into the Hongdae indie music scene and formed various bands such as “Flowermist” which busked in Japan and “Switchon” which performed for amateur club theaters.

As a struggling artist, he modeled for the several different online shopping malls. He was also on an advertisement for "BGFretail"(franchise retail) and participated in other artist's music-videos such as "Twinkle"(트윙클 by TTS -Girls' Generation) and "Liquor Bottle"(술병 by Haha).[11] [12] Jung Joon-young appeared on a TV show "Ulzzang Generation 얼짱시대 Season 5" (Ep.1~Ep.8)[13][14] and referring to this show, he said "People don't like this program because they think this is just about good looking boys and girls chatting on a TV show, but it was a good opportunity for me to make money."

Since his band, “Switchon” was little known to the public, Jung Joon-young decided to take part in Superstar K4 with “Switchon” members to gain more popularity as a band but the band dropped out in the first local audition. Thus, there was no choice for him except to continue the audition as a solo artist not to give up on his dream of being a rock star.

During the Superweek (which was the selection round), his unique low husky voice, good-looking appearance and unpredictable character trait were attractive enough to charm the viewers as well as judges, especially one of the judges, PSY who is famous for "Gangnam Style" (he left superstark4 after 1st final for the world tour). Besides, his collaboration with the competitor Roy Kim of "먼지가 되어 Becoming Dust”(Kim Kyang-Suk), which Jung Joon-young changed the ballad to the rock version, became a big hit and the best duet audition song ever.[15][16] After releasing, it achieved an “all-kill” on real-time charts and won the Mnet 20’s Choice Hot Cover as well as 2013’s Most Popular Karaoke Song of the Year at the 3rd Gaon Chart K-Pop Awards. Even though he was at risk of dropping out several times, he passed through it into the finals by Psy’s choice in the judge’s final decision.

Throughout the final stages, he stuck to rock style only as his musical style. His seriousness and persistence about rock music made the judges suggest that he should try different genre of music such as ballad, repeatedly and criticize him bitterly. However, on the other hand, his firm will and sincerity about his own musical style impressed a lot of viewers, as a result, it caused establishing of mania fans and a strong fandom as well. It explained how he could survive even on the third stage that he made a mistake with his tone out of pitch, through the number of phone votes to support him. His notable covers that represented his rock style were “매일매일 기다려 Waiting Everyday”(TeeSams), "Bed of Roses"(Bon Jovi), and above all, “Outsider” "(Bom-Yurum-Gaul-Kyoul 봄여름가을겨울)[17] which performance was applauded by all of the judges and audience by showing what exactly his own musical style was. On the fifth stage, he was urged to sing a rock ballad "응급실 Emergency Room" (IZI)[18] which had been chosen by viewers regardless of his musical taste, and ironically it highly ranked and topped on various online charts and also earned good reactions from the public.[19]

Though Jung Joon-young was eliminated in the six stage of semi-final as Top 3, despite many viewers’ support (It was revealed that he was the top contestant who had received the greatest number of accumulative phone votes until semi-final), superstar k4 was his big chance to let public recognize his vocal talent and also get a fame. So he mentioned, "Superstar K4 was the turning point in my music career. Before I tried out for Superstar K4, only those who liked rock music listened to my songs. However, now a more variety of people listen to my music and acknowledge me. I'm glad I got to make myself known through Superstar K4." through his farewell interview."[20]
