Will SM Ballad become the next big thing?


In our Korean Pop Industry, music groups debut one after another. Every year, there are more and more music groups in the Kpop Universe and still counting.

Lee SooMan of SM Entertainment is also working on many ways to expand his company as he introduces a new project group called SM Ballad. Well, the name is new, but the members– maybe not so new. This group consists of familiar faces; Jay Kim of TRAX, Cho Kyuhyun of Super Junior, and Jonghyun of SHINee.

Newcomer, Jino, has entered the midst of SM Entertainment and had been a marvelous addition to SM Ballad. This rookie was cast in 2008 with only 2 years of training. He was said to be as just as talented as his band mates and will someday become a highly ranked vocalist.

Undoubtedly, this project group had grabbed the attention of Super Junior E.L.F., SHiNee Shawols, and TRAX Traxians around the world.

Still, these questions have been asked everywhere; Will SM Ballad become the next big thing? Is it possible that all three fanclubs will become one? Will Jino become as big as his company mates? Only fans can answer these questions. Their powerful voices TOGETHER will have great responses throughout the Korean Pop Industry.

SM Ballad will now be releasing their very first album, SM Ballad Vol. 1, titled ‘Really Miss You’ on November 29th, 2010 due to the incident in Yeonpyeong, South Korea. Original release date was November 25th, 2010.
