Over the past few years, Wheesung revealed that he had endured his fair share of hardships in his career. Although he’s made a fantastic comeback with “Words That Freeze My Heart“, the process leading up to it was a long and arduous one.
The singer left his first home, YG Entertainment, in 2006, and so took over writing, composing, choreography, and producing all on his own. But with the emergence of idol groups, broadcast opportunities dwindled and he began to think that he was falling behind.
He explained, “I didn’t have enough for production, so I couldn’t write or make anything, and I had to cut costs for my music videos as much as possible. In the midst of all of that, my popularity began falling, and every single day for me was like death. I had to go through that for four years, and honestly, it was extremely difficult.”
Lost and confused, he sought the support of senior Tae Jin Ah last October, and told him all of the troubles he was carrying. After listening to his story, Tae Jin Ah took Wheesung to his own entertainment agency, Jin Ah Productions, and introduced him to Eru, Maya, and many other artists by saying, “He is now our new family member.” The senior had formally taken him under his own wings.
Wheesung quickly grew under the warm wings of his new mentor, and finally, on March 15th, the singer overcame all obstacles and released his latest single, “Words That Freeze My Heart.”
He said, “I tried to shed off as much as I could and start anew. I consider it a success if people remember at least one portion of my song after listening to it. I realized that pursuing too much at once puts me at risk of losing everything.”
With a fresh start underway, he revealed his future goal to be, “I want to be a singer that stands at the center of the music industry. Even though this is my 10th anniversary this year, I feel like I’ve only just finished preparing myself. I don’t know what it feels like to be 30 years old because I’m at a clean slate now with zero points.”

Such a flawless individual. I wonder what's gonna happen to the industry when he stops producing and writing lyrics when he has to go in for military service...

Date: 2011-03-27 05:40 am (UTC)I'm glad he's getting more love now because tbqh he is one of the best voices I've heard in a long long time. In Korean music, I think he's only second to Park Hyoshin and that is saying a lot.
