**Sun Woojoo** (선우주) is a South Korean singer-songwriter, producer and actor under Lemon Entertainment. He is the leader of the boy group The New Black.

## Early life

     Born from two musically oriented parents, Woojoo discovered his love for his music at a young age. He learned piano from his father Sun Myungjoo, a legendary jazz pianist. His interest in idols began after witnessing an idol performance. Seeing his parents happy as he imitated the dance he saw, he vowed to become an idol.

After losing his parents from a plane crash, he was raised by his maternal grandmother Kim Deokchun, an owner of a baekban restaurant.

## Career

### Pre-debut

Woojoo became a trainee at TJ Entertainment for 6 years where he learned how to compose and speak Chinese. Despite his awful dance skills, he was able to stay as a trainee due to his vocals and overwhelming visuals. He was scheduled to debut as the main vocalist of TNT. However, he was removed last minute due to the opposition of a high-ranking director, claiming that TJ Entertainment values dance and performance more than anything else. He was offered to become an actor, but he declined since his interest solely lies in singing and composing. Due to his removal, TJ's A&R Department (whom he was close to) and the Rookie Development Team (who was against him) fought for a while.

Feeling lost, he soon went back home to his province and worked part-time at his grandmother's restaurant. Soon, he entered the military and began his preparations for the CSAT. Despite being a trainee at a young age, Woojoo's grades in the mock test were high. He planned to major in music and later on join an A&R team.

On the morning of the CSAT, he saved an old man from a car accident and media hailed him as "Galhyeon-dong Righteous Person". After accidentally subduing a police officer, he realised that he can mimic and remember anything that he saw or studied. He gained the ability to maximize his declarative and procedural memory.

His interview became viral due to his visuals. When Director of Lemon Entertainment saw it, he claimed that they must recruit him as the last member of the team.
