Brian Joo
Brian Joo (Hangul: 브라이언 주; born January 10, 1981), better known as simply Brian, is an American R&B and K-pop recording artist who is based in the United States and South Korea. He is better known as one-half of the R&B duo Fly to the Sky. His solo album, The Brian was released in December 2006. His 2nd solo album, Manifold was released in December 2009.
He had two birth names: as Brian Gintaek Joo for American, and Joo Jin-taek (Hangul: 주진택) for Korean. Later, he changed both of his real names to Brian Minkyu Joo for American and Joo Min-kyoo (Hangul: 주민규) for Korean.
Early life
Joo was born in Los Angeles, California to Korean immigrants. The family later moved to Absecon, New Jersey. Brian's parents are employed at casinos in Atlantic City and has a brother who is an Officer in the US Navy.
While attending Holy Spirit High School, a friend signed him up for an audition with Brothers Entertainment without Joo's acknowledgement. The company has discovered several Korean-Americans who wish to pursue an entertainment career in South Korea. After several months of training, he was sent to SM Entertainment in South Korea, and on December 9, 1999, made his debut as one of the two members of Fly to the Sky, along with Hwanhee, at the age of 17.
