Debut
Before releasing his first album, Eru underwent two years of strict training.

And vocal trainer No Young Joo, who trained BoA, Fly to the Sky, and Lee Soo Young. Also a 100-member string orchestra participated in his debut album.

Eru's "Black Glasses" has gained popularity among young people. "Black Glasses" topped on- and offline charts. This song has won many awards, including Jukeon's song of the month (October of 2006) and SBS's Bonsang Award.

Eru's "Black Glasses" music video features Kim Hyun Joong of SS501 and Lee Young Ah. Eru is currently promoting his second song "White Snow", which he composed himself. Eru has recently appeared in Magolpi's debut music video where his role is a composer along with six other Korean artists, including Kim Jang Hoon, Park Joon Hyung of G.O.D., Micky YooChun of TVXQ, and Hee Chul, Kang In, and Shin Dong of Super Junior.

In March of 2007, Eru received an offer to appear in a Japanese movie titled "Three Tattoos". Eru's agency stated that it is quite tempting since the movie is being directed by Sukimori Hitomi and will likely be exported overseas. Eru's agency also stated that Eru may reject the offer as he has yet to establish himself in Korea as an artist.
