Jay Park

Korean-American hip-hop artist Jay Park was born in Seattle, Washington, in 1987. Passionate for dance and music from an early age, he started out as a competitive b-boy and was at the forefront of the K-pop movement that swept through the world, before changing paths to establish himself as an independent hip-hop and R&B artist. He founded the label AOMG in Seoul, South Korea, as both CEO and artist, hoping to support developing artists and producers organically. His project proved to be successful and led Park to expand his business model internationally.
