Biography
Lee Seung-cheol, dubbed “The Emperor of Live Music,” made his debut in the pop music world in 1985 as the leading vocalist of the band “Boohwal.” However, Boohwal disbanded in October 1988 and since then Lee Seung-cheol has been performing as a solo singer. His solo debut numbers “Don’t Say Good-bye” and “On a Sleepless Night” recorded great hits especially among female teens. Through the series of concerts he held in time with releasing his first solo album, Lee gained his nickname “The Emperor of Live Music.” While enjoying his heydays, Lee, however, was arrested for taking drugs and had to stop his career as a musician for a while. He made a comeback in 1990 with the album “Part 2.” The song “The Last Concert” included in the album was a great hit and gave Lee an opportunity to successfully continue his career as a singer. In the same year, Lee released his second official solo album and the song “I Loved My Friend’s Love” recorded a great hit. However, the drugs problem still lingered on the shadows of Lee and he had to have another hiatus in his career as he was once again arrested for taking drugs. However, Lee didn’t give up his passion for music and came back on stages thorough a series of national tour concerts in 1991. The next year, Lee published a book of journals entitled “The Portrait of Muse.” In 1995, Lee held a memorable concert with the U.S.-based a cappella band “The New York Boys” capturing the hearts of many pop music lovers with sophisticated sounds and melodies. In June, 1995, Lee surprised the public by marrying Kang Moon-young, an actress. However the couple got divorced in March, 1997. With a more mature image since his divorce, Lee has continued active performances in the local pop music scene by releasing albums steadily. Lee also participated in various OSTs for local films and has been holding live concerts in which he can show the best of himself to the fans of his music.

In 2002, Lee regrouped with his former group ‘Boowhal’ after a rather long 15years of separation and produced the hit ‘Never ending story’ which seemed appropriate regarding the relationship between himself and ‘Boowhal’. This enabled Lee and ‘Boowhal’ to stand center stage once again with nearly 400,000 copies of album sales and a sold-out national tour but the trip was to be short lived which left Lee and ‘Boowhal’ to go on to their separate ways. However, this didn’t slow Lee down at all. Determined as ever, Lee Seung-Chul continued to put out album after album, even a cooking-book of his favorite recipes. Furthermore, he celebrated his 20th anniversary since his debut in 2005 with a successful nation-wide tour and a Christmas concert which closed a very busy year for the singer.

Lee Seung-chul’s Good Deeds Revealed

2009-04-13

No good deed goes unnoticed, as in the case of Lee Seung-chul. It was revealed belatedly that Korea’s famed singer Lee Seung-chul has been helping out children with heart disease for the past 17 years. He has been making donations to the Korea Heart Foundation since 1992. The singer was awarded a plaque of appreciation from the Foundation at a music hall in Seongnam where Lee is to hold a concert.

An officials of the Korea Heart Foundation said that Lee was given due recognition for his quiet charity work and for inspiring others to cherish life. The foundation celebrates the 25th anniversary of its founding this year. Together with the members of his fan club, Lee has donated profits from his concerts and CD sales to sick children every year and helped more than 100 children receive heart surgeries. Not only is he providing monetary help, he goes out to volunteer at a social service center every month.

In the meantime, Lee is busy preparing for his 10th regular album due out in late April and a grand concert to be held on May 22 and 23 at the War Memorial of Korea.
