Kim Hyun Joong

Who would have thought that SS501 leader Kim Hyun Joong had intially started out as bassist in a rock band? Hard to believe it, but it's definitely not a joke! On the MBC program "The Star Secret," footage of his 2003 youth band performing at a festival celebration will be revealed for the very first time.

Back in the day, this rock group had established themselves so well that the members were invited to perform at various competitions and festivals around their area. The leader of the band was interviewed and fondly recalled how Kim Hyun Joong's charms and music abilities were well beyond his years. The guitarist of another rock band, N.E.X.T., also praised the idol for his natural and confident performance abilities on stage, proving that he was a man of endless potential.

This episode will air on October 30th! Be sure to tune in and catch some undisclosed pictures of Kim Hyun Joong prior to his debut in 2005 as well as footage from behind the scenes filming on the set of Boys Over Flowers. Also remember to visit the Quainte 501 Forums.

i´m not surprised he talked about this once and also when he said about the time he went to audition he talked about him going there with his guitar so i always though he was in a band before ss501
and he haslike 3 guitars or more he even got a electric guitar from a chinese fan for his b day

i would have never guessed

 
DannyDan02's avatar

Not surprising!! not in a bad way!! it’s because I had watch the M! pick videos and others and he always talked about how much he loves to play guitar and bass!!! and he is really good!!!.....once said he would spend all his money buying guitars for his collection ^_^

 
Layla Laroque's avatar

Not really surprising. You could see his hidden talent for guitar when he started showing it off on shows and performances. Like on We Got Married with Hwang Bo and on the awards show.

 
sayuri43's avatar

I’ve been following SS501 since 2006 but I’ve never ever seen a video as hot as the one that @31 reposted above.

He looked sooo happy! S5501 JJANG!

pangstar's avatar

yeah, i’m def watching Hyunjoong bear in this<3

 
Anabelle Lee's avatar

Hyun Joong definitely has it all. Great singer, hot looks, electric personality, talented musician,  sexy dancer, heart breaking smile, seductive voice, and sharp sense of humor.
I hope he fully recovers his health soon. It is scary to see how hard he is working while still not fully recovered.

 
no avatar

I wish he play the electric guitar again in concert. He plays it so well, and he looks so cool as a rocker.

 
allNice's avatar
