Kim Hyo-yeon (born September 22, 1989), referred to as Hyoyeon or DJ Hyo,[1] is a South Korean singer, dancer, DJ, and television personality.[2] She debuted as a member of the girl group Girls' Generation in August 2007, which went on to become one of the best-selling artists in South Korea and one of the most popular K-pop groups worldwide. She has since participated in other SM Entertainment projects, including Girls' Generation-Oh!GG and Got the Beat. Since 2016, she has also released singles as a solo artist.

Early life

Hyoyeon was born in Incheon, South Korea on September 22, 1989.[3] She grew up with her parents and her younger brother, Kim Min-gu. Hyoyeon's formal dance training started in elementary school. At her neighborhood's small hip-hop school,[4] she learned hip hop, jazz and Latin dance.[5] In 1999, she enrolled in Winners Dance School,[6] a famous dance school in South Korea specializing in popping, locking, animation and various other hip-hop styles. At the school she met Miss A's Min, with whom she formed the dance team Little Winners (Template:Korean). The duo performed at various showcases and was spotlighted by HipHoper.com in 2004.[7]

Hyoyeon auditioned for SM Entertainment at the age of 11 through the SM 2000 Casting System. Hyoyeon said she auditioned because her mother brought her to the offices of S.M. Entertainment in the hopes of meeting H.O.T.[8] Hyoyeon then danced in an audition show.[9] In 2004, along with Super Junior's Siwon, she was sent to study Chinese in Beijing. She received dance instruction from the Electric Boogaloos[10] and top choreographers such as Kim Hye-rang,[11] Poppin Seen,[12] Kwang Hoo (aka Crazy Monkey),[13] Poppin DS,[14] Kwon Seok-jin (aka Locking Khan)[15] and Black Beat's Shim Jae-won.[4] She also worked with one of Justin Timberlake's choreographers and a few foreign teachers.[4]

Before debuting with Girls' Generation, she worked with a choreographer for Janet Jackson[16] and was BoA's silhouette dancer during a performance at M.net KM Music Festival 2005.[17] In 2007, she teamed up with Jae Won for a dance collaboration to "Anonymous".[18] Hyoyeon was also picked as Korea's No. 1 idol dancer on Star News.
