Entertainment, and has further participated in its subgroup TTS and SM the Ballad.

Early life

Tae-yeon was born on 9 March 1989[1] in Jeonju, South Korea. Her family consists of her parents, an older brother[2][3] and a younger sister.

At the age of 13, Tae-yeon proclaimed that she was "only talented at singing".[4] During her years in middle school, she was accepted as a trainee at SM Entertainment and commuted from Jeonju to Seoul on every Sunday to receive her vocal training.[5][6] In 2004, her former vocal instructor Jung Sun Won, also known as The One, "wanted to acknowledge Tae-yeon's potential" and gave her a chance to be in his song "You Bring Me Joy".[7][8][9][10] Later on, she won the first place at the S.M. Annual Best Competition[11] and officially received a contract from S.M. Entertainment.[6] Tae-yeon continued her training under S.M. Entertainment and debuted as a part of Girls' Generation in 2007.[6][12][13] In 2008, Tae-yeon graduated from Jeonju Art High School and was awarded with the school's Lifetime Achievement Award.[14] During her pre-debut days, Tae-yeon was inspired to become an entertainer by BoA. Then a teenager, she "wanted to be like her and have activities in Japan and around the world", which later came true when Girls' Generation debuted in Japan in 2010.[15][16]

Career

2007–11: Girls' Generation and solo activities

Tae-yeon debuted as a member of the South Korean girl group Girls' Generation in August 2007. Due to the pressure of being the leader[17] of the group, she experienced sleepwalking for a period of time.[18][19] Aside from Girls' Generation's activities, Tae-yeon has also made several solo appearances. In 2008, Tae-yeon released two solo songs, "If" for the KBS2's drama Hong Gil Dong[20] and "Can You Hear Me" for MBC's Beethoven Virus.[21] The song "If" became popular[22][23] on various online music charts, with Hankyung describing Tae-yeon as having "an exceptional voice and sad tone",[24] while "Can You Hear Me" received the YEPP Popularity Award at the 2008 Golden Disk Awards.[25] In a 2014 interview, Tae-yeon mentioned that the latter song was hard to sing, explaining that the introduction had to be delivered as if someone is talking, rather than singing.[26][27] On the same year, Tae-yeon also had a duet titled "7989" with fellow SM artist, Kangta. It was featured on both Girls' Generation's self-titled album Girls' Generation, and Kangta's Eternity. In April 2008, Tae-yeon became a DJ on MBC Radio's program Kangin Tae-yeon's Chin Chin Radio alongside fellow SM artist Super Junior's Kangin.[28] After Kangin left the program in April 2009, it was renamed to Tae-yeon's Chin Chin Radio, as Tae-yeon became an independent host[29][30][31] and continued on until April 2010. She gained the nickname "DJ Taengoo" while hosting this program.[32]

In January 2009, Tae-yeon appeared on the MBC's reality-variety show We Got Married and was featured with comedian Jeong Hyeong-don. They played a couple, portraying what life would be like if they were married. When this news was announced, it caused an uproar among South Korean netizens due to the 11-year age difference between the two.[33] She then participated in the song "S.E.O.U.L." (along with Super Junior and Girls' Generation) as an effort to promote tourism for the city of Seoul in South Korea.[34] In September 2009, Tae-yeon released the song "It's Love", a duet with Sunny for the MBC drama Heading to the Ground.[35]

From February to August 2010, Tae-yeon became a co-host for the KBS2's idol talk show Win Win alongside 2PM's Wooyoung, Choi Hwa-jung, Kim Shin-young, and Kim Seung-woo.[36][37] On 7 May 2010, she had her musical debut as the main female role in Midnight Sun, which is based on the Japanese novel "Taiyō no uta" by Aya Denkawa.[38][39] The musical was about Kaoru Amane, a 17-year-old girl, who suffers from Xeroderma pigmentosum, which forbids her from going out during daytime. She keeps her hopes up by writing songs and singing every night at a train station; Tae-yeon received good press for her performance.[40] She also learnt how to play a guitar for her performance.[41] When reflecting on her experience, Tae-yeon shared that she found musicals to be difficult, citing that her weak concentration made it hard for her to act and sing at the same time.[42][43] Music-wise, Tae-yeon released a duet song, "Like A Star", with her mentor The One,[44] as well as a solo song, "I Love You", for the SBS's drama Athena: Goddess of War.[45] The former song reached number one on Gaon's digital chart[46] and the latter peaked at number two.[47] In 2011, Tae-yeon had a duet, "Different", with Kim Bum-soo; the song reached number two on this chart as well.[48][49] The two singers met again at a concert two years later for another collaboration "Man and Woman".[50]

2012–14: TTS's debut and SM The Ballad

Tae-yeon and her band mate Seohyun were cast as voice actors for the Korean-dubbed versions of the computer-animated films Despicable Me (2010) and its sequel Despicable Me 2 (2013). They dubbed the voices for the characters Margo and her younger sister, Edith, respectively.[51][52] On 28 March 2012, after releasing the single "Missing You Like Crazy" for the MBC's melodrama The King 2 Hearts, the song ranked two on both Gaon's digital chart and Billboard's K-pop Hot 100.[53][54] The producer of the song, Park Hae-woon, described "Tae-yeon is an amazing singer. She fully understood the song in its entirety and expressed each detail very precisely...even though this song requires the lowest note that a female singer can produce, Tae-yeon executed them perfectly."[55][56] The singer had previously declined the offer for the song due to her busy schedules with Girls' Generation. However, she made a promise to musical director Lee Pil-ho that they would collaborate again after working with him on the Beethoven Virus OST. He stated that he had not considered anyone else other than Tae-yeon to sing this song.[57][58] It was eventually picked as the most popular soundtrack of the year at the 2012 Seoul Drama Awards.[59] The same year, another song, "Closer", from SBS's drama To the Beautiful You[60] ranked seven on both charts.[61][62]

Taeyeon during 3rd Japan Tour in June 2014

In May 2012, Tae-yeon, along with fellow Girls' Generation members Tiffany and Seohyun, formed a subgroup called Girls' Generation-TTS (or TTS), releasing their first mini-album titled Twinkle. The subgroup has a different musical direction and style concept from Girls' Generation,[63] placing their focus on each member's vocal ability while the latter group emphasizes the songs and uniform group performances.[64] The three singers also became the hosts for the MBC's music show Music Core from February 2012 to April 2013.[65][66]

In January 2013, Tae-yeon returned to MBC as a one-day guest DJ for Shindong's program, Shimshimtapa, alongside her bandmate Tiffany.[67] The two singers also had a duet "Lost in Love", which was featured in Girls' Generation's fourth Korean album, I Got a Boy. On 13 March 2013, Tae-yeon released the song "And One" for the SBS's drama That Winter, the Wind Blows.[17] It debuted at the top of the Billboard's K-pop Hot 100[68] and reached number two on Gaon's digital chart.[69] The song was written and composed by Kangta, expressing the emotions abounding star-crossed love.[70] On 9 July 2013, Tae-yeon lent her voice in the song "Bye" for the movie Mr. Go.[71] The song, this time, was not as successful on the charts.[72][73]

In February 2014, Tae-yeon joined the ballad group SM the Ballad, initially formed by SM Entertainment in 2010.[74] On the group's 2nd album, she had a duet with Jonghyun for the title track "Breath"[75] as well as a solo song, "Set Me Free".[74] "Breath" was also the theme song of the Mnet's mini-drama Mimi. The song debuted within top 10 of the Gaon's digital chart and K-pop Hot 100.[76][77] In March 2014, Tae-yeon recorded the song "Colorful" for the JTBC's campaign "The World Is More Beautiful Because We're Different".[78][79]

On 30 May 2014, she released "Love, That One Word" for the SBS's drama You're All Surrounded, the song managed to rank number 8 on Gaon and number 6 on Billboard as well.[80][81] In the later half of the year, Tae-yeon concentrated her activities with subgroup TTS. They released their sophomore EP, Holler, in September 2014; the album debuted at number 1 on both Billboard World Albums[82] and Gaon's weekly chart.[83] Tae-yeon took the responsibility for the album's song selection.[84] During the promotion period, the three singers were also featured in the reality show, The TaeTiSeo. The show took a more close-up and personal side of the three singers approach, revealing their normal everyday lives.[85] Tae-yeon stated "If it weren't for the passionate [Girls' Generation] members, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to sing."[86][87]

2015–present: Solo debut

In February 2015, she was featured in "Shake That Brass", the title track of f(x)'s Amber's solo debut.[88] Amber revealed that she personally requested Tae-yeon to feature in the song.[89] In September 2015, she released a remake of the song "Scars Deeper Than Love" as a duet with Yim Jae-beom.[90]

In October 2015, Tae-yeon debuted as a solo artist with the release of her first solo album, "I", with the title track of the same name featuring Verbal Jint.[91] Her brother Jiwoong made a short appearance in the music video. In October 2015, Tae-yeon held her first concert titled "Taeyeon's Very Special Day" at the SM COEX Artium.[92] In November 2015, she was featured in "If The World Was a Perfect Place", a track on Verbal Jint's sixth album.[93]

On December 4, 2015, Tae-yeon won the award for 'Best Female Artist' at the 17th Mnet Asian Music Awards. On January 22, 2016, she featured in "Don't Forget", a digital single by Crush. The single was well received, topping several major music charts.[94][95] Following the success of her first solo album, "Rain" was released as a single along with the release of the music video and an accompanying b-side, "Secret" on February 3, 2016. "Rain" won music show win on February 14th in SBS's Inkigayo.

In February 2014, Tae-yeon began dating fellow S.M. artist Baekhyun of EXO.[96] In September 2015, reports stated that their relationship had ended.[97]
