Kang Hyo-won (Korean강효원; born September 19, 1983), known professionally as Pdogg (Korean: 피독), is a South Korean record producer, and songwriter for Big Hit Music.[1] He has produced and composed for artists such as 8Eight, Baek Ji-young, BTS, Jo Kwon, and Lim Jeong-hee, among others.[2]

Biography and career

[edit]

In 2007, at age 25, Pdogg established a relationship with Big Hit Entertainment's CEO Bang Si-hyuk—Bang managed an online composing community where Pdogg uploaded some of his own musical compositions.[3] The music was well received, and Pdogg's tracks "Come Back" and "Love" were included on co-ed group 8Eight's debut studio album, The First, and Lim Jeong-hee's third studio album, Before I Go, J-Lim, respectively—both albums were released that same year.[3][4] In 2010, with the help of rapper Sleepy, Pdogg discovered a young RM, around whom the formation of boy group BTS later began, and brought him to Big Hit. He eventually became the group's main producer.[3]

At the Korea Music Copyright Awards held in February 2019, Pdogg was honoured by the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA) and awarded the daesang as the highest-earning songwriter and composer of 2018.[5] He has consecutively won the award every year since then, having earned the most royalties for songwriting and composition out of all Korean composers and lyricists.[6][7][8] In November 2020, due to his major contribution to BTS' musical career, an episode of Immortal Songs: Singing the Legend was dedicated to his songs.[9]
