Manila, Philippines - From the famous Korean boy band SS501, one of Asia’s pop stars Kim Hyun Joong is back onstage and now with his first solo mini-album Break Down.

Kim Hyun Joong displays a different persona compared to his SS501 days. He has taken the most generic route out of all the SS501 member’s solo activities — typical synthesizer instrumentals, heavy beats and catchy choruses as well as bubblegum pop.

After completing his tour both in the US and South Korea, he hit the studio and recorded this mini-album with album producer Steven Lee.

Break Down boasts of a total of six songs, with one instrumental version of the title track.
The title track is a powerful synthesized song with an urban style which features a stylish rapping of South Korea’s Double K, plus Ken Lewis as the single’s producer. Lewis is the producer of Eminem, Kanye West, Usher and John Legend.

Aside from the Philippines and South Korea, the album is also released in China, Taiwan, Hongkong, Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia.

Apart from being the leader of SS501, he gained popularity for his role as Ji Hoo in the 2009 hit drama series Boys Over Flowers on ABS-CBN. He is also known as Baek Seung Jo or Gelo in Playful Kiss aired by GMA 7.

Break Down is available in all record bars nationwide for P500. Watch out for the Manila High Five meeting of Kim Hyun Joong in August. For details, log on to http://www.polyeastrecords.com/.
