This is my C-pop favorite musician



Hi today I will talk about my favorite chinese musician, 韩庚 or Han Geng in piyin (chinese system of phonetic transcription).
Han Geng was born in febrary 9, 1984 in Mudajiang, China. Is an amazing singer, a new actor and one of the better dancer. He style is chinese pop also called C-pop. All his life he has learned diferrent types of ethnic traditional chinese dances, today he is a specialist in 56 ethnic traditional dances, also in ballet and hip-hop. Han also was chosen as a torch bearer for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, becoming the first boy band member in history to hold this role.
His carrer started in 2001 when SME(a korean talent agency) chosed him. In 2005 he made his oficial debut in a korean pop or K-pop group called "Super Junior"(today this group is really famous in all the world including Chile) after in 2008 was the leader of SuperJunior-M a chinese subgroup of this korean band. On 21 december 2009 he left both groups and the company with a lawsuit against SME. After that he returned to his hometown to pursue a solo carrer. In 2010 he traveled to USA to take dance classes with Michael Jackson's choreographer after to made his solo debut, perfecting his dance.
His first and only solo album titled Geng Xin 庚心 was released in 2010. The name of the album literally means "Geng's heart", but it is also a play on words because it has the same pronunciation as "start anew" in Chinese. Now he is preparing his second album.
I don't have a favorite I love all but I love the lyric of Simple Person because I feel special when I hear this song, but also Say No, because this song talk about his fight for made his solo carrer even if all the doors in Korea for him were closed, even when he left SJ a lot of fans attacked him, including former colleagues spoke very ill of him. This song is about his attempt to rebel against everything and do what he liked best in the world that sing and make to his Gengsters (his fandom or group of fans).





I really like Han Geng because even more that his music he is an amazing guy and son all his work is always for his mom. He loves animals and lives with two chinchillas LongLong and RongRong in his departament in Shangai, China.

Han Geng also heads a program to help people in need, working especially with children. Last year he made a music animated video for this program using his song Because Of Dreams


Well this is my favorite chinese musician I love music really, specially anglo and asian pop and rock and I don't have just one favorite band or musician I have a least two or three for country. Some examples are Simple Plan, Avril Lavigne, miss A, 2PM, The Gazzete, L'arc, etc, etc I love music hehehe~
