Ha Dong Qn (하동균) (born on June 28th, 1980) first debuted onto the music scene in 2002 with the R&B group 7Dayz. After one album, the group disbanded with band leader Lee Jung (이정) leaving (and subsequently carving a successful solo career for himself). Ha Dong Qn and other 7Dayz bandmates, Suh Jae Ho and Jeon Sung Hwan then got together with Kim Jae Suk to form R&B group Wanted under M-Boat Entertainment. After a successful debut in 2004, Wanted soon met with an accident resulting in the loss of Suh Jae Ho. Wanted was suspended and there was to be no apparent activity from any of the members.
Ha Dong Qn's work was limited to works on OSTs until his surprise solo debut in 2006 under Warner Music Korea. His solo album, Vol.1 Stand Alone, showcases a powerful, husky voice behind his slight frame and delicate looks. The main theme of his album, 그녀를 사랑해줘요 Geunyeoreul Saranghaejweoyo (Please Love Her), received massive attention even before his official promotion. His solo album sold remarkably well for a considerably new artist and he has achieved success as a solo singer. Ha Dong Qn is predominantly a ballad singer as most of his songs on his solo are powerful and dramatic ballads. Fans has likened him to Park Hyo Shin, for the similar rawness, huskiness and emotional quality that both artistes carry into their music. However it should be noted that both singers are distinctively different as well and Ha Dong Qn carries his own style.
