[edit] Biography
KANG TA was previously a member of H.O.T.(High-Five of Teenagers), which can be considered as one of the hottest boyband in Korea.
He's the first member to be discovered for H.O.T. and was spotted by the head producer of S.M. Entertainment, Lee Soo Man, when he was hanging around with his friends at Lotte World. Although his father was against him becoming a gasoo, he went on at the early age of 14 to begin his training. He began as a backdancer for the artist, Yoo Young Jin. Later, another discovered member of H.O.T., Moon Hee Jun joined him as a backdancer for Yoo Young Jin as well.
Kang Ta was the lead singer of the group. Not only did he shown talents in his singing skills, he has also shown talents in composing as well.
H.O.T. announced their break-up sometime in mid-May 2001 and this news made it hard for their fans to accept. Hundreds of them gathered outside the company's building to protest, hoping that they can bring H.O.T. back.
The other three H.O.T. members, Tony An, Jang Woo Hyuk and Lee Jae Won joined another record company to form another boyband of their own. While, Moon Hee Jun and Kang Ta began preparing for their solo albums. Kang Ta participated in the production of his first solo album as a co-producer and did most of the composing himself, mostly ballads. His first solo album, Polaris sold 15 million copies in Korea in just a single day. - KANGTA 1979
