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.
