Career

1997–2001: Beginnings and rise to fame

Jang Yong-jun spent most of his childhood and adolescence in his birthplace, Busan. In 1996, Jeong Hoon-tak, who ran a management company named EBM Production Co., after success elevated Jung Woo-sung and Kim Ji-ho as top star, met Jeong Yong-jun, a 20-year-old young man who was a student at Seoul Institute of the Arts. He was convinced that the innocence in the face of Jung Yong-joon, which exudes sadness and strange charisma would become a “weapon”. Jung Hoon-tak pushed Jung Yong-joon into the accommodation of the group god members who were still preparing for their debut. And started the harsh training. With Jung, who has his own confidence that “only those who are prepared can succeed,” Jung Yong-joon prepared for a long time.<ref name=":13">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
