Band Members

Buzz (버즈) is a 5 member rock-ballad boy band under Santa Music. The group consists of members; Yejun, Woohyun, Junki, Sunghee & Kyunghoon. They debuted on October 10th 2003 with their first album “Morning of BUZZ”. BUZZ temporarily disbanded in 2007 while the members (except Kyunghoon) went to the army but re-united in 2014.

Buzz's song "Gliding" (활주) was used as the Korean opening to the popular Japanese anime, Naruto. Their song "Fighting Spirit" (투지) was also used as another Korean opening to Naruto.

In July 2007, the band officially went on hiatus as four of the band members began, or had already begun, to serve the 26 month mandatory service in the South Korean Army required of all South Korean men. Min Kyung-hoon, the vocalist of the group proceeded in a solo career while the anticipated fourth album was due to be completed once the band completed their duties. A new vocalist, Na Do-Kyun, was auditioned at a later stage. After Na left the group, he debuted with HISTORY, a male group under LOEN Entertainment that has since disbanded.

Buzz's major success in 2006 was marked by three of the band's songs reaching the MTV-Korea top 10 list in a mere week, consecutively- "My Love," "My Darling," and "남자를 몰라" (You don't know men). In addition, the song "은인" (Savior) made it to the top 14 list. There were scandals among fans that in the 2006 winter discography awards in Korea, that their songs were not considered by the officials for they were a group which worked its way to the top, unlike many other singers/groups and that they did not "pay up".
