[INFORMATION] R-eaL
R-eaL
Welcome to this post! I'm here to tell you about a new Korean pop boy band called "R-eaL".
They are five boys in the group, Yoon (25), Jin Woong (20), Chang Hyun (20), Insuk (20), and Sang Il (18). Their goal is to show their "real" selves in the music business. They first appeared on a popular TBS program called 'Trust in Ako'. R-eaL was also featured in a spread for a famous Japanese music magazine called Ticketpia. It was titled "R-eal's daring challenge - Run to the death".
They officially debuted on . Currently, they are under the Sponge Entertainment (ex-H.O.T. member, Jang Woo Hyuk, is also part of this) label. Their music is supposed to have a J-POP feel. After they debut in Korea for about a half a year, they're going to Japan (and possibly all around Asia) to pursue success there.
Additionally, they officially started their promotion for their first album on June 10, 2008.

Frequently Asked Questions
» Why are you doing this?
Honestly, I have no clear reason why. A lot of it, though, has to do how scattered the information about R-eaL are. I would like to try to bring that into one place where everyone can learn more about them at once. You know, make it easier for people to get into them. ;D
» Why LiveJournal?
It's easier for me to edit and keep track of.

I like to take my time with adding stuff so no one feels overwhelmed. (Plus it gives me something to do each day anyway.)

They specifically said not to take out anything. I want to respect their wishes (unless I can find a way to contact and ask for permission of course).
