Biography

Musical career

Jung was born on June 22, 1989 in Seoul, Yeoksam-dong. His family consists of his parents and a brother four years older than him. He moved to Pusan in 1991 and lived there through high school, where he first began composing music. After taking his college entrance exam, he moved back to Seoul where he joined F&C Music and began training in bass technology at F&C Academy. Jung is now a guitarist and vocalist for the new Korean group C.N.Blue, along with members Lee Jong Hyun, Lee Jung Shin and Kang Min Hyuk. Following the success of You're Beautiful, Jung took over the leadership of C.N.Blue from former leader Lee Jong Hyun.

From June 2009, C.N.Blue began a string of street performances and gigs at live clubs in Japan, before making its first official debut on August 19, 2009 with the debut mini-album Now or Never. On January 14, 2010, C.N.Blue formally debuted in their home country with the 1st Korean mini-album, Bluetory.

Acting career

In early 2009, Jung landed his first acting role as Kang Shin-woo in the SBS drama You're Beautiful, which aired from October 7 to November 26, 2009. As the series revolves around the life of a musical group, Jung played the role of the bassist in the faux idol band A.N.Jell along with fellow co-stars Jang Geun-suk, Park Shin-hye and Lee Hong Ki. His performance garnered him the New Star Award at the SBS Drama Awards 2009, held on December 31, where he also performed together with A.N.Jell. Jung's second TV contract was for MBC's Sunday Sunday Night program Korea Ecosystem Rescue Centre: Hunters, which featured seven celebrity MCs, including Kim Hyun Joong of SS501 going out to capture wild boars. The show premiered on December 6, 2009 but will prematurely cease its run in mid-January 2010 due to protests by animal-rights groups.[1] MBC will be replacing Hunters with a new program on global warming, however, Jung will continue as one of the MCs.
