PRE-DEBUT STORIES OF:

Kim Jaejoong

Despite's family objection of his lifetime dream of becoming a singer, Jaejoong left his hometown at the age of 15, and signed up for SM Entertainment audition in Seoul.Eventually, he passed the audition and secured a 7 years contract + 2 years of training.

HIS STRUGGLE BEGINS...

Without his family's financial support to pay for the training classes, this young boy struggled against all odd to make ends meet. He took up various jobs such as working in the restaurant, selling chewing gums and appeared as a movie extra


His income was then spent on paying for his lessons. Since, the balance left isn't enough to pay for his apartment fee, reluctantly he walked for three hours to his (restaurant) workplace. Fortunately, on his way, he saw a donation booth, and donated his blood in exchange for some biscuits.

Due to his strong perseverance, Jaejoong finally achieved his ambition on becoming a singer and debuted as the eldest member of DBSK in 2004.

"I will continue to sing even if there's only one fan listening to me" - Jaejoong

6 years. After years of hard work, when he was about to make his debut, his voice undergone changes during puberty. Despite feeling frustrated, he practiced even harder. Eventually, his strained voice just crack up and others just made fun of him.
