moon taeho

 

He's your typical rockstar on the outside and onstage. Underneath all the makeup and bleached hair though is your typical flower boy who loves his family more than anything. Taeho's one of those guys that seem to be friendly with everyone. He's fiercly protective over his friends and close ones. He's full of so much energy that most who come into contact with him swear he only drinks redbull. Onestage, that energy is translated into a lot of head banging and jumping around as he's usually the one who get's the crowd moving. 

 

 

 

BIOGRAPHY — The night that Taeho is born, he's brought into the world and straight into the coldness of South Korea. As soon as his parents bring him home, they cradle him near the fire. He watches in awe of how the fire hungrily at the burning wood, eating away like vultures picking at a corpse. He falls in love with its intensity instantly. 

The Moon family isn't what you would technically call... poor. But they definetly couldnt waste their money. Each cent was spent with reason and a purpose. Taeho learnt from an early age that you couldn't take the roof over your head for granted. In the winter when the cold would seep through the thin walls, he would curl up near the dying fire and stare at the burning embers. He wanted more in life. Craved more. 

 

He's 12 when stories of greek mythology fill his life. His father's most prized possesion is the collect of old book detailing the myths. So Taeho spends hours of his childhood reading each page in detail with his fathers help. They become his bedtime stories as he dreams of Icarus flying towards the sun with his makeshift wings before falling, spiraling to the earth. 

Being lucky enough to get selected for an exchange in high school is one of Taeho's greatest achievements. Growing up with the limitation of money always made him feel trapped. So he studied. And studided some more. Until one day his efforts were recognised and he was handed a ticket to Canada to study English for three years. He leaves home with a duffel bag and a smile on his face, awaiting the excitment that's ready for him in another country. 

Living in Canada wasn't too difficult for a friendly teenager like Taeho. He accepted every possibility that came his way, especially when his music teacher suggested he learnt an instrument. That afternoon he traveled to his homestay family with one of the schools acoustic guitars. Within his exchange of three years, he learnt to master the acoustic guitar after strenuious hours of stinging fingers. Eventually, his talent was recognised by a few friends who invited him to join their band. From there, Taeho moved towards the electric guitar to match the band's sound. With great enthusiasm from Tae, the band was eventually named Flower Crew. 

 

Returning back to South Korea was almost like falling back into old habits. He found himself slipping back into depression and his habits of ease. He'd graduated high school and now had no idea what to do with himself. Money was still an issue within his family and he found himself spending most days busking in busy streets with his beat up guitar. A cold evening of busking he found a card in his small box of coins from passerbyers. In neat, detailed script spelt out a lesser known companies name and underneath someone had scribbled a number. One call later and he had booked an audition with the company. 

He spends three years training under the small company before they debut him as a soloist. He growns a small, strong fanbase for his rock and alternative sounds. Despite the company being messy, he manages to get out two singles and a mixtape within two years before the company closes down due to lack of management. 

Luckily, Fame Entertainment had kept their eye on him since his debut. As soon as he's kicked onto the streets with no goal they sweep him up and begins trainee life all over again. However, his training only lasts three months, already in the lineup for the newest boyband that's to follow the footsteps of Fame's last one.

 

Nowadays, he's the guitarist of 'insert band'. Every coin still as a purpose in his eyes and he's never one to freely spend money. Majority of his pay is sent back to his parents, buying them as much lavish items as he can afford in simple thanks. Finally, he's caught the intensity of burning embers. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

His Fame Ent. training life was differen't that what he expected. He thought they would've made him do the typical trainee stuff, you know, dancing and singing. Instead the company focused him on his actual talents and the reason why he was scouted; his guitar skills. Of course he went through vocal training, but they never really bothered to make him go through too much torment with dance. After the first band that Fame had debuted ended so successfully, Taeho was sure he wanted to be picked for the next band and reach that exact level of prosperity.
