Trot star Jung Dong Won (JD1) to venture into forming a dance-focused idol group

AKP STAFF


Renowned trot singer Jung Dong Won, known for his recent stint as an idol under the moniker 'JD1', is embarking on a new musical journey by forming an idol group. The plan entails assembling a dynamic dance ensemble through rigorous audition processes.

Previously embracing the persona of an 'artificial intelligence idol' with his alter ego 'JD1', Jung Dong Won invested nearly two years into choreography and styling endeavors. Their latest promotional track, 'Who Am I', showcased JD1's versatile talents, with renowned hit maker Ryan Jeon contributing to the song's production.

The agency expressed their ambitious vision for JD1, positioning the idol as a formidable contender in the competitive K-pop market, ready to explore diverse avenues alongside JD1.

Now, JD1 is poised to conquer new horizons with the formation of a dance-focused group. The selection process is currently underway, with emphasis placed on identifying individuals with exceptional singing and dancing abilities to complement JD1's vision.

Notably, Jung Dong Won made his debut with the single "Miracle" in December 2019, garnering attention for his distinct musical style. His subsequent appearance on TV Chosun's 'Tomorrow is Mr. Trot' in January 2020 further solidified his presence in the industry, culminating in a commendable 5th place finish in the finals. Now, with the launch of this idol group, Jung Dong Won is poised to captivate audiences with his multifaceted talents in the realm of dance and performance.

Luckily for him he'll still be very popular if the group doesn't succeed. He's got nothing to lose.
