Author: Ask Me About Kpop February 2, 2022 Duration: 1:58:59

In 2003, SM Entertainment debuted a new boy group that would change the scope of Kpop fandom forever. And 6 years into their reign, the group split, causing massive fallout that shook the entire industry. Today on the podcast, we start with chapter one of the story of TVXQ, the part where they had 5 members. Follow along as we teach you all about the many names of Dong Bang Shin Ki, the 5 original members, and a look through their timeline and discography from 2003-2010. Tune in next week for even MORE of the TVXQ story leading up to present day.
