Brian Joo
Brian Joo (born January 10, 1981), better known professionally as Brian (Korean: 브라이언), is an American singer and one-half of the R&B duo Fly to the Sky. His first solo album, The Brian was released in December 2006. His second solo album, Manifold was released in December 2009.
Brian Joo was born on January 10, 1981, in Los Angeles, California to South Korean immigrant parents. His original Korean name was Joo Jin-taek (주진택), but his father changed it to Joo Min-gyu (주민규) when he was three years old. Joo grew up in New Jersey and spoke Korean at home. His parents worked at casinos in Atlantic City and his brother, Jason Joo, is an officer in the U.S. Navy.[citation needed]
While attending Holy Spirit High School, a friend signed him up for an audition with Brothers Entertainment without Joo's knowledge. The company has discovered several Korean-Americans who wish to pursue an entertainment career in South Korea. After several months of training, he was sent to SM Entertainment in South Korea, and on December 9, 1999, made his debut as one of the two members of Fly to the Sky, along with Hwanhee, at the age of 17.
Joo was accepted to Rutgers University, but did not end up attending due to the demands of his music career. He later enrolled in Dongguk University, where he graduated from the Department of Theatre and Film.[citation needed]
Joo is a member of Fly to the Sky with Hwanhee, Brian sang and also rapped. As Fly to the Sky made its musical transition from bubblegum pop to heavy R&B, Joo felt discontent and inferior, and felt that Hwanhee was more appreciated for his vocal skills.
Joo has appeared on television many times. Since 2005, he has appeared on a number of variety shows, including hosting MBC's Music Core in 2006 and becoming a host for SBS' Green Gold in 2009.
In August 2009, Fly to the Sky decided to work on separate projects and have become solo singers under different labels.
On April 14, 2014, Brian Joo announced on his Twitter that Fly to the Sky will be making their comeback in May. The band later signed up with H2 Media, the agency of member Hwanhee. Their 9th new album "Continiuum" has been released and the main title track is "You You You". The single peaked at number one on Gaon digital chart.
