G.O.D aka Groove-OverDoze
by la vifzetta*

A group consisting of five members, Park JoonHyung, Yoon KyeSang, Ahn Danny, Son HoYoung, and Kim TaeWoo, G.O.D debuted in January 1999 under the management of JYP (Park Jin Young). Together, the five boys worked hard for two years in preparations for their debut. Releasing their first album (Chapter 1) with hits such as 관찰 (track 2), 날 기다려줘 (track03), 어머님께 (To Mother [track 06]), G.O.D entered the K-pop scene in competition with already big groups as Sechskies and H.O.T and the then promising new boyband of pretty boys, Shinhwa.

So what distinguished G.O.D from the other young talented boy groups?

The first thing that might come into one’s mind is the lack of good looks in the group. Although Hoyoung, Kyesang and Danny have come to be known as the handsome boys of the group, it certainly wasn’t so in the beginning, especially when one compared their appearances with rivalling group, Shinhwa. But of course, the definition of beauty is subjective, so it is up to the reader in deciding whether they actually were not as appealing, appearance wise, as Shinhwa.

Another thing is their style. Although they did fall into the mainstream cycle, G.O.D had its own uniqueness like the other boybands of the time. Their song, 관찰, gives off a disco slash dance feeling. In general, G.O.D seems to emit an upbeat and energetic atmosphere. This is definitely one of the reasons why G.O.D was able to make its breakthrough amidst the many other groups that also debuted around that time. It is also because of its ability to mix old school music (disco) with the new coming genre of pop that G.O.D succeeded in a way different from their predecessors.

As G.O.D continued to gain popularity with their music, one could see the maturing of their music. Starting out as a disco/dance group, they evolved into an R&B/pop group slowly but remained nonetheless unique in their own style of music. In total, the boys had acquired 5 Daesang (the biggest music award given out at the end of the year by various broadcasting companies) over the span of six years. G.O.D also held their first concert in 2001 at the Olympic Stadium in Seoul.

In between the year 2000 and 2001, G.O.D starred in a reality sitcom, Yooh Kil Ah Gi (? For romanisation), that filmed their daily life with baby JaeMin. Playing the roles of babysitters, the boys showed a lot of their personal sides, revealing their true identity to fans. Through this drama/sitcom, G.O.D gained much popularity with Korea, however, the sitcom was cut short when G.O.D was involved in a devastating car accident. Although everyone survived the crash, Son HoYoung unfortunately suffered the most injury. With a broken nose, HoYoung was stuck in the hospital for some time. And because of the members’ injuries, the show was cut short and other promotional activities were also pushed back. Till now, G.O.D still remembered vividly of their time with JaeMin and often sent regards to him and his family.

Another thing to note would be their “100 Day Concert” in the year of 2002. Instead of promoting for their 5th album, G.O.D took their time in preparing for this series of concert instead. Over the span of 4-5 months, the boys held concerts almost daily for their fans. Each concert was unique on its own, as the members took turns in hosting and different themes were set. It should also be commented that the boys remained equally energetic throughout the concerts. According to fans, not a single concert showed to be disappointing at all.


Who exactly are the members? What are their unique charms?

Instead of employing pretty boys from the States like SM Entertainment did, JYP took a different route and scouted boys with individual talents. Of course, appearance was still a measured factor, but it appears to be light-weighted when one studies the talents of the 5 boys of G.O.D.

Park JoonHyung, the leader of G.O.D and also the oldest (born on July 20, 1974), was from the States. Older than most of the member in the other groups, Park JoonHyung offered to the audience a more mature presence. To many, he was like a big brother. Specialising in rap, his deep baritone voice helped bring out a unique aura to G.O.D’s music. Further, because he was from the States, Joon (his nickname) was also the contributor to the English narrations and raps. Finally, he also helped in the production of songs, with some composition contributions.

Yoon KyeSang, who now serves in the Korean military, originally auditioned in hopes of becoming a rock star. Obviously, that hope was shattered but a new dream was created for him when he became a member of G.O.D. Being the 2nd oldest member in the group, he was noted to be a moodsetter of the group. Like Joon, he specialised in rapping but one could hear his vocals becoming more defined as each album progressed. Further, he was also the poster boy of G.O.D for his height and cute but handsome charms.
Danny Ahn, Joon’s cousin, was also a US-born child. Liking artists such as Will Smith and Puff Daddy, it was no wonder to the world that Danny was also a rapper in G.O.D. It should be noted, however, that his rapping style is much different from the other members. As he was able to recite his raps at a very quick-paced rhythm, his raps became notoriously difficult to copy, hence giving it a sense of originality. According to the members, he was always the one taking care of everyone and hence his nickname was, “G.O.D’s mom.”

Son HoYoung, another US-born child, was a friend of Danny before the group came together. In fact, the two boys were already making and practicing their own music before the group was created. If not for Joon’s suggestion to audition, perhaps we would not be able to hear the boys’ talents, or perhaps the two boys would have formed a duo on their own! Like KyeSang, HoYoung was more versatile in terms of his role in G.O.D. Not only did he rap, he also focused on singing, but it wasn’t until 5th album (Letter) that one could hear his unique singing voice more often.

Finally, we come to the lead vocal of the group as well as the youngest member, Kim TaeWoo. Seven years younger than Joon, TaeWoo was a natural in singing. Not only was he the youngest member of G.O.D, TaeWoo was also the tallest and perhaps, biggest, of G.O.D. His voice remains as one of the most outstanding in Korea right now.

HISTORY
G.o.d. is a group debuted with the song “To My Mother” also known as the so-called “The Jajangmyeon Song.” Singer Park Jin-young was the producer for the group in which 5 members, Park Joon-hyung, Ahn Danny, Yoon Gye-sang, Sohn Ho-young and Kim Tae-woo performed great musical and dance talents. Since their debut in 1999, the boy-band has been loved by fans in all age groups from teens to the middle-aged. Leader Park Joo-hyung is a rapper with a deep and low voice. Yoon Gye-sang is a high-tone rapper with a good sense of humor. Ahn Danny is Park Joon-hyung’s cousin who performs medium rap in the group. Sohn Ho-young is the vocalist for the band who is loved for his soft smile and voice. The leading vocalist Kim Tae-woo boasts great singing talent. Their musical style ranges from hip-hop, disco, latin, punk and R&B to pop ballads. Since their debut, the band has been enjoying steady popularity for its diversity in musical style. In 2002, g.o.d. participated in MTV Asia Music Awards as the Korean representative. In April of the same year, the band also participated in the official album for the 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan, “True East Side.” From July that year, the band embarked on a long journey of a 100-day concert. The series of concert ended in March of 2003. In December of 2004, Yoon Gye-sang left the group temporarily to do his military service. As of January 2005, g.o.d. is actively appearing on air performing songs in their 6th album, “An Ordinary Day.”

Danny worked on Music Camp as an MC with Ock Ju Hyun. He also did his radio show "Kiss the Radio". When he left Musci Camp, Bi took over his place.

Kyesang worked on his acting career. He was on a couple of dramas including "Sister in Law is 19" and "Ban Jun".

Joon lost his grandmother during their time off.

Taewoo focused on his health and lost some weight.

Taewoo, Joon and Hoi spent time in the USA, to rest and later to record chapter 6. Danny's parts of the recording were added in Korea. Hoi trained under voice coach Jodeci for extra help with his vocals for chapter 6.

The god members faced some major challenges during their time away. First there were very unpleasant contract negotiations with their management company. For the past few albums, god had been managed by Sidus, though Taewoo was signed under JYP Entertainment (JYP a.k.a. Park Joon Young writes and produces much of god's albums, and he is a good friend of Joon's). As their contract expiry approached, Sidus stopped promoting god and they fell out of the limelight (chapter 5). Joon and Hoi decided to jump ship and join Taewoo under JYP Entertainment. Danny and Kyesang resigned under Sidus. Because that contract problem was drawn out, god was forced to stay in the background for a while.

The second major challenge the members faced was the departure of Kyesang. His departure seemed quite abrupt and unexpected. But the remaining god members put on a brave face and persevered, pledging their support to Kyesang. In a statement released by the group, they said "When a member leaves a group, it can feel as if there is a huge empty space, but the remaining members are working twice as hard to make up for the difference."

These challenges also consumed a lot of god's "time off" between the 100 day concert and the release of chapter 6.

But its great to see them back, they are moving forward and leaving their difficulties behind them. While they are not the same without Kyesang, the heart of god is still there so they are still my favorite Korean group.


Host- this is mnet 10 stars- we’ve spent time with 9 of them and now we
have 10. the final star. I don’t have tot tell you who they are do it?
with friendly smiles and friendly hearts, and warm songs, mnets 10th star…
g…o..d

Than it goes through their hit song from each album

Chapter1- To mother
Chapter2- love and remember
Chapter 3- Good bye
Chapter 4- Gil- road
Chapter5- letter
Chapter 6- Ordinary day

1999- producer park jin young puts together a good group- grove overdose…g.o.d

than vo lady lists the member- they were assembled in 1997 and 2 years

Taewoos main vocals on good bye is heart wrenching

The gospel song- one candle light-- totally don’t get what she says here…

2001- a special day for god- their first concert (for the album, I assume)

hoyoung- I was so nervous, my knees were weak- thank you and love you.

--la vida loca—

than she lists the concert cities…
2001 they win the mtv viewer’s choice award.

It’s reported in seoul sports (newspaper) the unbelievable news that joon
is leaving the group… the fans ban together… fan god doesn’t want him to
leave… they reveal reasons he should leave (or get kicked out- don’t get
it all) the members gather for a news conference without joon… they
reveal that they didn’t know about joons exist…
Taewoo- we didn’t know of any kicking out of anyone… but It would be a
lie to day that I didn’t feel nothing was wrong
Hoyoung goes into that thing about his bright smile- so bizarre…

Hours later, joon has a press conference- he is hard pressed to find words…
Joon cries…

Fans oppose joon’s exit…

After a year, the fans start to regard the band again- the drama was over-
the band stood behind joon.

Than she does into the various songs on the album—blah blah blah

God gives the fans a present- the good book- a series of god pictures…
Business man, taewoo
Doctor, hoyoung
Violinist danny
Auto racer kyesung
Mechanic joon
(I don’t understand if this is their dream if they weren’t a singer or what
they thought they’d end up doing if they weren’t singers(?))

they win more awards—including the daesang in 2002

more perky host girl… god has a world cup memory

they became world cup representatives-- they try new things, contributing
to the Champion OST (excellent movie btw) and the 100day human concert.

Than it goes onto chapter5—I think she says that their broadcast perf. Are limited for the promotion for this album… letter shows their color in typical
god style…

Goes thru various concert perfs.—they look like they are having so much
FUN!!!

Another news of exiting- the fans are nervous. Nothing is confirmed.
(this is the spilt to jyp) danny and kyesung pursue individual interests-
danny radio program kiss the radio allows people to meet god members…
it may be just danny but the whole group is present…

Press conference for 6jib

Instead of 5 there is 4… but it’s not that anyone was kicked out- the group
supported kyesungs departure to acting. (danny looks embarrassed when
joon shows off his t-shirt)
The group gathers to support kyesung.

God’s 6jib showcase—
Taewoo- when I give the signal, you have to sing it load, we aren’t going to
use the mics so you have to be loud!
Audience- YES!
Hoyoung- we aren’t going to sing it for you
Taewoo- we’re not going to sing it! (with them)

The showcase shows off the movie- ordinary day… the scenario matches
their album…
Danny- yous aw the movie? How was it? did you see me? I was in it,
didn’t you see me? You didn’t see me? It’s bunk! I’m not in it!

During the concert- they look for kyesung- taewoo wants the spotlight on kyesung!
Taewoo- kyesung, where are you?!

With kyesang gone, they have to work 5% harder… they will have to fill the space that kyesung left behind so that god can be 100%… god is a special
group… to put it exactly they are a consistent group… the warm feeling they started with the loving song to mother to the tending of jaemin to banning
together for joon to projects programs- like brothers, they fill the hearts of
the people… and than- I totally don’t understand but it’s a bunch of good
things about god…

G.O.D'S REMEMBER WHEN...

-G.O.D made their debut album in 1999 which went DOUBLE platinum! (GO G.O.D!)
-Their 4th album, Gil, sold over 1.7 MILLION COPIES!!!!!!!!!! (They were one of the few singers who ever sold a million copies in the history of Kpop~ I think the other one was H.O.T or BoA*~)
-G.O.D sold 22,500 concert tickets in 11 minutes!!!
-G.O.D had a show where they had to take care of baby Jae Min (Yoohkah Ilgi).
-G.O.D's 100-day Human Concert?
-G.O.D fans fought with Haneul fans because she had the same balloon color as them? (sky blue)
-G.O.D was on NEW NONSTOP.
-Joon Hyung was a back up dancer for Janet Jackson?
-G.O.D was in the COREA/JAPAN WORLD CUP CONCERT (and had a song called "True East Side").
-G.O.D had a huge scandal with girl group finK.L. (YulSang)
-Joon Hyuk was once engaged to actress "Han Go Eun".
-G.O.D'S 100 DAY CONCERT was a huge success!
-G.O.D used to live in a house together (Kye Sang & Ho Young shared a room ^-^).
-G.O.D used to be REALLY REALLY POOR (they all lived in one small apartment), and instead of riding around in limos they rode around in a van (I think all Korean singers do this though~)
-G.O.D called themselves "Dwaeji Gajohk"~ (Translation: Pig Family)
-G.O.D was on CNN.
-G.O.D was in TIME MAGAZINE (American).
-G.O.D got in a car accident (Ho Young had to get nose surgery).
-Joon Hyung injured his leg/ankle and for a lot of performances, he sat down in a stool. (it was either 4th or 5th album times)
-For G.O.D'S photo album, they took pictures of professions they'd want to be in if they weren't singers. Ho Young was a doctor of some sort, Joon was some sort of labor worker I think, Kye Sang was a car racer, and I don't remember the rest.
-Kye Sang and Ho Young (HoSang) went through a HUGE gay scandal and the manager forbid them from hugging/touching/etc on stage because of it.
-Kye Sang never "wanted to be a singer," he originally wanted to become an actor. But instead he got recruited to G.O.D.
-Ho Young ran away from home because his dad wouldn't let him become a singer, but later he came back and his dad finally accepted.
-Kye Sang used to be a really bad kid when he was little. (He used to sell porn expensively to his friends~ [of course this could just be rumor])
-Joon used to be really poor and couldn't get into UCLA because of it. (His mom used to be really sick; I think she had cancer?)
-[ON JAENG PAHN NORAEBANG (Happy Together)] When the G.O.D members FIRST saw each other, Joon didn't like Kye Sang and Tae Woo; Danny & Ho Young didn't like Kye Sang, and Kye Sang didn't like Tae Woo.

WHO IS G.O.D

*Ahn Shin Won, who is he
He, who is adored as a heavenly rapper, who is he?

Danny is the most charismatic of all on stage and his rapping skills are so good, people call him a 'born rapper'. Even when Danny introduces himself, he says, "Hello, I'm god's rapper, Danny", which shows how much passion and skill he has for rapping. He is also very good with emotions and so the main person for emotional rapping and narrating. god fans have claimed that he has a voice that could make a person go crazy. Away from the stage, Danny is very friendly and gives off a feeling of a cute younger brother, and god fans even claim that he seems like he'll have the most popularity with older women. He continues to worry though because each day it seems he grows thinner and thinner, and he is the most scrupulous of all of god. Once, his fellow member Ho Young referred to him as a 'strawberry', his reason being that just like a ripe strawberry, it is easy for him to receive scars. As sensitive and delicate he is, he makes sure his fellow god members don't receive any scars, and cares for them like a mother. Even on the radio, the most sensitive member is Danny! Whenever any of the members say something, he always replies, "Wow! That sounds fun!" or "Aww~" so that the members don't feel bad if they don't get a response. These days, it doesn't seem that he's taking much care of himself because of the busy schedule but his fans have come to become like him!
The fans have been taking so much care of him that he claims he doesn't feel the need to take care of himself. Also, as god's fashion leader, he is their official gi gong ja (dont know translation ^^! But all god fans agree that Danny is prettiest when he pouts.



*Kim Tae Woo, who is he
The man they call heaven's voice, who is he?

Because the distance from Gu Mi to Seoul was too far, Kim Tae Woo almost gave up his dream of becoming a singer, but when H.O.T's Gu Mi man, Jang Woo Hyuk, succeeded, he gained confidence. He became god's very last member and has become their pride. There is no question as to why his fans call him heaven's voice. But whenever someone talks about Tae Woo's looks, the other members alwaqys say, "Hey, at least you can sing well..." But they also say, "Though he's the biggest out of all of us, if you look at his actions, you can tell he's the youngest." Because of his bright and friendly personality, he is god's mood maker and even at the studios, he can't stand a quiet mood. If he feels the mood isn't good, he tries to make everyone happy.



*Park Joon Hyung, who is he
god's real leader, who is he?

His nickname, Lager Man. As god's older brother, father, the god members claim that it is because of him that they are still so down-to-earth. The reason god is so different from other groups may be because he treats his fellow members as younger brothers and his power rap and flexible body! Though he had trouble at first with Korean, coming from America, and his grandmother being North Korean, he can now not only speak Korean, but he can also make funny jokes. He is also a talented artist whose drawings are often wanted in art magazines. Though he seems tough at first, anyone can feel that he is just a big brother.
But when we hear the other god members' stories of how he punished them when he caught them lying, we can see the scary side of him. But the god fans believe that as god's real leader, he will be able to lead them in the right path. Jjoonie hyung, be healthy and strong!!!

No Kye Sang & Ho Young; sorry!
