HISTORY

Stella Jang made her debut under Grandline Entertainment on September 19, 2013 with digital single "Dumped Yesterday".

On July 22, 2019, Stella Jang was the first member to post an announcement about the upcoming special project girl group CSVC containing already-debuted solo singers: Stella Jang, CHEEZE, Lovey and Park Moonchi. They will make their debut on August 6, 2019 with digital single "Summer Love...".

After completing her elementary education in Korea in 2004 at age 12, Stella Jang's mother sent her to live with her friend in France as she believed the French education system is better. Stella Jang first lived in Nancy then attended Lycée Henri-IV in Paris. Following her graduation, she went onto attending college at AgroParisTech where she studied their GIPE course. She later worked for the international cosmetics company L'Occitane but eventually left her job in 2014 to fulfill her dreams of being a musician.

Stella Jang is known for her relatable songs to daily life so people can connect to her songs easily. She has a song titled “Vanishing Paycheck,” which tells us about the agony of waiting for a monthly paycheck that vanishes as soon as we get it. In Korea, the usual payday is on the 25th of each month and we can hear the song on the radio on that day. It seems like the office workers get sympathized a lot by the song!

She has a song titled “Girls’ Generation,” the lyrics of which mention all of the names of SNSD’s members. It is a song about being a real woman with pure beauty. The song was considered to be somewhat controversial due to the lyrics where she seems to compare regular women to SNSD members, notably regarding the issue of being pretty without putting in a lot of effort and makeup. Some disagree and think that a woman has the right to become whoever she wants with or without makeup. Some just assume that it was just her admiration for SNSD.

Stella Jang once had a dream of being a rapper after listening to Big Bang’s songs (she admired the group since then) and hoped to join YG Entertainment. She also loves hip-hop and includes at least eight lines of rap in every song.

She speaks six languages, she is fluent in Korean, English, French, can speak some Spanish, Chinese, and German. She once appeared in the TV show Yoo Hee-yeol’s Sketchbook and sang “Passionate Goodbye” in all six languages.

She usually changes her appearances and hairstyle every time she appears in public. She dyes her hair color to either pink, silver, or blond, depending on her song.

Her music is influenced by many artists, such as Yoo Hee-yeol, Yoon Jong-sin, Jung Jae-hyung, and Lee Sang-hoon. This has put her music in the genre more similar to the Korean 90s pop music.
