1989–2004: Vida temprana e infancia

[editar]

Jun Hyoseong nació en Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do, Corea del Sur, el 23 de octubre de 1989.[1][2]​El nombre Hyoseong se deriva de la palabra 유성, la cual en coreano significa meteoro, debido a que su padre y su abuela materna

Hyoseong's name is derived from the word  which is Korean for meteor, due to her father and maternal grandmother seeing a shooting star on the day of her birth. Hyoseong's family struggled financially, and she and her family earned extra money by delivering newspapers every morning since she was in 3rd grade.[1]​  Ever since she was young, she was known amongst her friends for her singing and dancing skills. However, she never had thoughts about actually becoming a singer until she was in 6th grade.[3]​ She admitted,
"I liked performing for others since I was little. I danced things to songs like Fin.K.L and S.E.S. at my friends' birthday parties. In 6th grade, I decided that I really wanted to become a singer, and all of my friends helped me try to make that dream come true."[3]

In middle school, she was the leader of her school's dance club and worked part-time jobs to earn the money to travel Seoul for auditions.[3]​ Her parents were against her choice at first but later supported her decision when they saw how dedicated she was towards her goal.[3][4]

2005–2008: Career beginnings, Five Girls and personal struggles

[editar]

In 2005, Hyoseong began to audition for several talent shows hosted in Cheongju and Seoul but met with failure.[3]​ The same management company that Hyoseong had auditioned for at Cheongju held another audition in May 2005. This time Hyoseong made it through to the final round. Hyoseong danced BoA's Valenti at her final audition because, "although many people danced to BoA, no one had done the Valenti dance". Thanks to her song choice, the management company took notice of Hyoseong and she went on to win that talent show.[3]​ She was then advised by an agent of Good Entertainment to audition for Mnet's "Battle Shinhwa". However, she initially hesitated because she was not sure if she was ready to appear on television, and was worried about her school attendance.[3][4]

Hyoseong managed to make it to the final 12, out of which only 3 were girls.[5]​ She expressed, "I changed a lot during 'Battle Shinhwa.' I could never let myself relax. Why? Because I had to survive. I didn't have time to relax. All my friends told me I was being so intense."[5]​ She went on to add, "It was so hard both physically and mentally because I had to do it while attending school. I left school early often during those 6 months. But my teacher really helped me a lot. I felt so bad for my teacher and my friends, but I didn't want to give up either school or Battle Shinhwa. But honestly, I did pretty well during that time in school."[4][5]

"I had about $30 for a month during my dorm life. But it didn't matter, because I could walk to school, so I only needed the money for bus fare to get to lessons. The company fed us, so that was no problem." However, when she got to 12th grade without any progress, she said, "I realized I couldn't just waste my time, so I started to prepare for college and started working at a part time job. A lot of people asked me when I was going to debut, but it wasn't as if I could do anything about it. I was happy that Yoobin debuted as a Wonder Girls member, but it made me wonder what I was doing." —Hyoseong, on her struggles after the disbandment of Five Girls[4][6]

She was picked as the final 6 and later went on to sign a recording contract with Good Entertainment.[5]​ She signed officially in 2006 and started to live in the dorms with Yoobin and Uee as a trainee and began to go to school in Seoul.[5][6]​ Good Entertainment had initially intended for Hyoseong to debut in a three-member group, along with Yoobin and Uee, but ended up adding G.NA and Jiwon.[7]​ They were set to debut as a five-member group called "Five Girls";[6]​ when in 2007, before their official debut, the group starred in a reality show on MTV called "Diary of Five Girls".[6]​ Five Girls were never to debut due to their company's financial issues.[4][6]

In 2008, after "Five Girls" disbandment, she started working at a part-time job and managed to earn enough money to attend Inha University;[6]​ however her college life was short lived.[6]​ "Only Uee and I were left in the company. I thought I really had to work hard, so I decided to leave school and focus on lessons."[6]​ However, she was faced with a larger obstacle. During 11th grade, her father had been diagnosed with lung cancer, but had recovered after treatment.[8]​ Her father was still weak when he decided to go back to work to support his family, and unfortunately the cancer came back, this time much more aggressive. The doctors told Hyoseong's family to "be ready". Her father died of lung cancer in 2008.[8]​ At this point Hyoseong was no longer a trainee with Good Entertainment and had decided to start attending college again. However, her plans changed when a TS Entertainment agent contacted her.[4][8]

2009–present: Secret and rising popularity

[editar]

In 2008, a TS Entertainment agent had seen Hyoseong in "Diary of Five Girls" and contacted her to audition for their company. Hyoseong passed the audition and began living as a TS Entertainment trainee. TS Entertainment announced that they would debut a four-member girl group in October 2009. Hyoseong, along with Han Sunhwa, Song Jieun and Jung Hana, debuted as the group, Secret. Prior to their debut, the group appeared in a documentary called "Secret Story" which chronicled their debut process.[9]​ They released their debut single "I Want You Back" in October 2009.[10]

Secret in Mnet 20's Choice Awards, 2010

In April 2010, Secret released their first mini album entitled Secret Time which spawned the hit single "Magic"; and served as their breakthrough song in South Korea.[10][11]​ In August 2010, they released their second mini album entitled "Madonna" and the title track continued their success as it topped the Gaon Single Charts.[10][12]

In January 2011, the group deviated from their "sexy" and "sassy" image and released Shy Boy, a "cutesy" and retro inspired song.[10]​ Although they were worried with the 180 degrees transformation, the single exceeded their expectations as the song was a huge success. Shy Boy charted strongly in digital charts and Secret won their first trophy on music shows with the song. They won a total of 5 trophies in various music shows with Shy Boy. In March 2011, Hyoseong was chosen as a regular cast on KBS's Oh! My School. Secret continued their success with the release of their second CD single entitled "Starlight Moonlight".[10]​ The title track became another hit for Secret as the song reached number one on the Gaon Monthly Singles Charts and won them another trophy in SBS's Inkigayo.[13]

The same year, Secret began a foray of Japanese activities with the release of Madonna and Shy Boy.[10]​ The Japanese remake of "Madonna" debuted at number nine in the Oricon singles charts. Secret was the third of three Korean girl groups to debut on the Oricon chart in the top 10, the others being Kara and Girls Generation being the first and second respectively. In October 2011, they released their first studio album entitled "Moving in Secret" and spawned them another hit with the lead single "Love is Move.[10]​ Secret released their first mini album in Japan entitled Shy Boy.[10]​ The mini album debuted also at number nine on the Oricon album charts.

Secret in February 2011

In February 2012, she played Soo Yeon in the sitcom Salamander Guru and The Shadows aired on SBS.[15]

On the October 21, 2012 episode of Inkigayo, the live music show revealed a teaser video hinting that twenty of the most-wanted K-pop stars would transform into four new project groups in the yearly event. Hyoseong will be part of the girl group Dazzling Red with Sistar's Hyolyn, 4minute's Hyuna, After School's Nana and KARA's Nicole. Brave Brothers is set to produce the group's new title song. Slated to air on December 29, the group will perform the tunes only one time on stage and the profits from online streaming and downloading of the songs would be donated to people in need.[16]​ The song "This Person" was released on December 27, 2012.[17]

On August 6, 2013, it was announced that Hyoseong would make her drama debut as Han Na Young in Orion Cinema Network's drama, The Ghost-Seeing Detective Cheo Yong.[18]​ She starred in the ten-episode drama with Oh Ji-ho and Oh Ji-eun. Hyoseong started filming in the middle of August,[19]​ to make it in time for the premiere on February 9, 2014. In relation to this, according to Hyoseong, she received hard acting training from the drama director during the various shoots for the drama.[20]​ The drama series ended on April 6, 2014.[21][22]
