KEVIN WOO
From the global stage to the teaching desk, KEVIN WOO is set to guide the new generation of idols by joining Produce 101 Japan as a vocal coach.
It is official, KEVIN WOO has been announced as one of the new faces of the cult show Produce 101 Japan. With an exemplary international career, the Korean-American artist will bring his technical expertise and perfect pitch to train the future talents of the industry. His role as a vocal coach is not only a recognition of his musical abilities but also of his longevity in an extremely demanding field, making him the ideal mentor for candidates seeking perfection.
This new challenge continues an impressive journey. KEVIN WOO made history in the second generation of K-pop as a key member of U-KISS (2008–2017), with whom he toured globally and achieved memorable hits such as “만만하니”. This solid foundation allowed him to successfully branch out, moving from television appearances (notably as host of After School Club) to Broadway stages, where he shone with versatility and charisma.
More recently, KEVIN WOO demonstrated the full range of his vocal talent by voicing the character Mystery Saja in the hit Netflix animated film “K-POP DEMON HUNTERS”. In addition to voicing the character, he performed key tracks from the soundtrack, including the highly popular “Soda pop”. This venture into voice acting and animated cinema reinforced his status as a multidimensional artist, capable of reaching all audiences, whether music lovers or global pop culture fans.
By joining Produce 101 Japan, KEVIN WOO is not just teaching notes; he is sharing a decade of passion and resilience with those who dream of following in his footsteps.
