Lee Jin-sook Biography

Lee Jin-sook is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on December 10, 1978 in South Korea. Chae-yeon Lee (Korean: icaeyeon born on December 10, 1978) is best known by her mononym, Chae Yeon, is a Korean pop artist who came to prominence with her smash song “Two of Us” (Korean duliseo ) in 2004 due to her unique wave dance style.

She returned following a brief absence to launch her third studio album III that was released in the fall of 2005. First single “ojig neo”, was a disappointment in the charts because it was not a rousing dance track, and lacked a memorable hook. The company immediately changed into”the “Disco Mix” of the song, which aided in maintaining its position on the charts, though not much. Another single “sebeonjjae sarang” (Third Love) was also received poorly, despite that it had a sensual video and was more upbeat than the first single. But, this could be attributed to the demise of the sexy R&B songs in Korea in the era since ballads were often the preferred style for Korean artists; and albums from different “sexy concept” singers.

Chae Yeon was born Lee Jin-Sook (Korean: 이진숙 , Hanja: 李珍淑), in Seoul in 1978. It took her many years to attain her current level of fame in Korea’s entertainment industry. In fact, she had to start out in Japan first. She was part of a singing group called Brand New Biscuits (ブランニュービスケット ) , debuted in Japan on January 1, 2001, when it had six members. Brand New Biscuits included also another Korean singer, Yuny Han (Han Tae Yoon). Chae Yeon was also member of group UltraCats (ウルトラキャッツ ) under the name of “Jinny” (ジニー ) or “Jinny Lee” (ジニー・リー ) from 2001 to 2002.

She returned to Korea with her first official album It’s My Time under her new stage name, Chae Yeon. Debuting late in 2003, nobody expected her to be successful as she is now. Initially, she was simply viewed as yet another “sexy concept” singer, as many female singers were at that time. However, unlike many others, she had a fairly successful debut. She proved to be a great dancer, and she showed off her vocals in her ballad songs and live performances. Her title song “위험한 연출” (Dangerous Presentation) did well, but her real success came when her second album released late in 2004. “둘이서” (Two Of Us) the lead single, pushed her to No.1 on many music charts in the spring of 2005. The music video for “둘이서” was controversial for being too “racy” in conservative Korea (for it contained scenes showing her full back and exposed underwear). Subsequently, the video was banned on television, and the airing time was limited to after 10:00 p.m. in some cable channels. Becoming heavily played on radio, the song became so popular that a signature “move” from the choreographed dance became known as the “Na-na-na” dance (named after the hook of the song). It managed to hit the top of various music charts in Korea. The follow-up single “다가와” (Come to Me) was released soon after and was also popular, riding on the wave of its predecessor.

Chae Yeon has maintained her popularity by constantly appearing on variety shows like The SBS’s X-Man (TV program) as well as Love Letter, where she is portrayed in both cute and sexy pictures. In these shows, her appearances enabled her to showcase her positive and bubbly personality. Her official schedule ended with her final X-Man show on the 25th of September, 2005 to focus on recording her fourth album.
