Information
At the age of 14, Seo Taiji played in several amateur rock bands. In 1990, at the age of 17, he was recruited into the metal band Sinawe (pronounced shee-nah-wee) to play bass. Seo chose to drop out of school, a system that he felt did nothing but corrupt the minds of youth, and became a professional musician.
After leaving Sinawe in 1991, Seo Taiji switched gears and formed the dance group Seo Taiji & Boys with dancers Lee Juno and Yang Hyun Suk. The group released four studio albums before officially disbanding in January of 1996. After the break up of the group, Seo Taiji moved to New York City where he worked on his first solo outing.

Trivia
- His debut album is counted as his fifth album, as it follows the count from Seo Taiji & Boys released albums. Since 2004 he includes the release order number on the titles, like 7th Issue and 8th Atomos, however those titles belong to his third and fourth solo albums respectively.
