News Articles of LEE HOM From Singapore


"Idol" Magazine, 24/9/99

Lee Hom is a workcoholic!

Wang Lee Hom was labelled "You Zhi Ou Xiang" or "Talented, outstanding idol". He grabbed the two big "Best Male Vocalist" and "Best Producer" awards in the recent Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards '99. So, other than these, what other good and bad points does Lee Hom have? Let him speak for himself!

Good points:-

Regarding fans:
Any song-making singer is a little more special, because conversely another singers have certain songs arranged for them. Hence his songs are more direct to the fans and more sincere. I know a lot of singers who are into song-making, i feel that the main difference between them and me is my musical background. Because i am born in New York, therefore my songs and my singing technique is more American-styled, and my voice has more power as i have been singing musicals on stage since thirteen.

Regarding character:
I am very serious. I know that breaking into the Hong kong market is very important, even my company has spoken to me about it and they said it is harder and tougher in the Hong Kong market than Taiwan's because we need to spend about 3 to 5 year's time to penetrate. But i can accept this because my attitude to any job is that i must accomplish it the best i can. I do not give up easily.

Bad Points:-

Regarding character
I am a little workcoholic. Whenever i have nothing to do, people advise me to catch up on my rest time or go see a movie but i will insist to write sings whenever i am free. It may be a job hazard, i can't seem relax. This is a good point when i am working but my friends and family think it is not good, giving myself too much stress!

I am more careless, for examples shoes. My house in America is in a mess, i always can't seem to find anything. Only when i am about to step out of my house then i realise that i have only one shoe!
