Shoo (singer)

HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "spouse" is not recognized

Yoo Soo-Young (Hangul: 유수영; born 23 October 1981, in Yokohama, Japan), more commonly known as Shoo (from her Japanese name Shū Kunimitsu (邦光 洙, Kunimitsu Shū)), is a South Korean singer, actress, and a member of the pop group S.E.S.. Although Korean, she lived in Japan for most of her early life. She got her start in the group by trying out in auditions for SM Entertainment (unlike the other two members, who were discovered through less conventional methods). She succeeded in getting noticed from the judges and was thus offered a spot in their girl group, which became known as S.E.S. (standing for Sea, Eugene, and Shoo, the three members).

S.E.S.

S.E.S. quickly became one of the most popular groups in Korea, helped in part by SM's strong marketing methods. In the group, Shoo was always the first to change her look (or at least, change the most drastically). She has admitted in interviews that she ran out of hairstyles and hair colours to have, because she had so many over the years.
