About
8eight (에이트) is a three member group consisting of three members: Lee Hyun (Leader/Male Vocal), Baek Chan (Rapper/Male Vocal), and Joo Hee (Female Vocal). 8eight were the winners of MBC’s Show Survival (쇼바이벌), kind of like the show American Idol, making their official debut on August 25, 2007 on MBC’s Show!

Wow their English is pretty good in "Somewhere over the Rainbow". They have nice, strong voices too. But why are they called 8eight?

[estrella]

here's another video of Joo Hee singing a tough song, keisha cole's love.

[toanyone21]

I really like them. Joo Hee voice is amazing =]

[pp226]

their voice are amazing=D
i like them singing english song
they are under Big Hit Entertainment O.o
now i know why they are close with JYPE XDDD
Big Hit always have good singers like K Will and Lim Jeong Hee
but many of them are underrated
i wish them luck

[cubannn]

Wow. Their harmonies are amazing. Each of them is very talented by themselves, and their voices fit together so perfectly. Their english is quite good too. Hopefully they make it big, they definitely deserve it.

EDIT: I was on youtube, and I found this vid.

It's them goofing off, Lee Hyun beat boxes while Baek Chan raps to Snoop Dogg's "Drop it Like It's Hot". I found it quite entertaining, it's cute how Baek Chan tries. & there are a few glimpes of K.Will too helping out hahaha.

I've always heard of the group on Showvival. But I haven't watched it yet. But if they won it with those judges I saw, they must be pretty good. Going to give a shot listening to their music tomorrow.

[TVXQ_superjunior]

I havent listend to their songs... But i think I'll like them... the clips are AWESOME!!!

[smile-jw]

They are such amazing singers.
Whoot! Their debut it tomorrow.
Ill be looking forward to it.
I wish them the best of luck!
Their voices are seriously SO AMAZING. *_*

[VioletSauce]

Saw a clip of them at PopSeoul today. I fell in love with them instantly. I hope Annyoung puts there single up soon.
I'm really looking forward to hearing more from them.

[chocomilky]

Whoa. I'm pretty amazed with Chan's rapping because, usually, rappers of groups can't rap.

One of the most talented groups of 2007.

And like most said, their English is really good. Is one or two of them from America?

[trinniet]

woah i just watched some of the covers they did and they are awesome. they are going to be my new obsession soon. haha

[muchacha]

Baek Chan looks japanese =)
DAMN THEY ARE AWESOME
I'm really looking forward into buying their album

[sunnyade]

Really liking this band, a new favorite.

[Nakuru]

Added more profile pics. If anyone has more bio info on the members or just more info on the group I'll gladly add it to the first post
I kinda had a hard time finding even basic info, like birthdays

[13!hyukjae]

Whao nice name XD I'm going to try them out. They must be pretty amazing judging by the replies posted here. <3

[smileforgrace]

I was WOWed by their clips on YouTube.
Their harmonies mesh perfectly and each one of them have strong voices that complement each other.
I'm looking forward to their debut.
They deserve to be well known and respected, purely for their talent =)

[edward1849]

Haven't had a chance to listen to them yet. They'll be on Music Core later today. Their image reminds me of Ty Keys.

We have Se7en, we have 5tion, and now 8eight. Sooner or later all the numbers will be used.

[silentxtears]

They kind of remind me of TYKEYS. Haha. I can't wait to watch their performance.
