Park Jung Ah

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Park Jung Ah (박정아, born on February 24th, 1981), is a Korean pop singer. First debuting as a member of girl group Jewelry in 2001, she became popular not only for her beauty and her status as the group leader but also for her powerful vocals. Park emerged as one of the more popular members of Jewelry and has been noted for being the older sister to her bandmates[citation needed].

Since Jewelry went on hiatus, Park took the opportunity to debut as a solo singer. Her first solo album Yeah was released in the fall of 2006, showing an edgier side that Jewelry single "Superstar" hinted at. The title song was her first single, and it allowed Park to become more of a rock singer. The album also featured production from #1 Billboard Production Team, Eddie Galan and Sean Alexander of Trilogy Productions. To move away from the manufactured pop image she developed in Jewelry[1], she has performed this single live at every performance[2], and it has subsequently made the song a strong chart hit.

Park has studied at Dongduk Women's University and is also able to play the piano.
