5566,,

Grouping
5566 not only work together as one, but they also work separately. For instance, Sam Wang; he’s famous for his appearance in many TV series as well as his membership in one of the company’s band called 183 Club, which effectively makes him the busiest 5566 member. Tony Sun and Zax Wang often have dramas to shoot, while Jason Hsu has been featured in many local promotional campaigns. Zax Wang and Jason Hsu are also hosts of SETTV’s entertainment show, Showbiz (完全娛樂 / Wan Quan Yu Le) (2003-present). 5566 as a group have hosted TTV’s Young Guns (少年特攻隊 / Shao Nian Te Gong Dui) (2002-2007) and CTS’s Dou Zhen Zhu Le Bu (鬥陣俱樂部) (2004-2005). Additionally, leader Tony Sun is known to take part in a lot of the behind-the-scenes work at Jungiery.

[edit] History

[edit] Pre-debut
Each of 5566’s members has had various degrees of success prior to the group’s formation.

Tony Sun has gained much solo experience by releasing several well-received albums in the Taiwanese dialect in the 1990s; he even gained the title of the “Taiwanese little champion”. However, his popularity waned when he had to fulfill his mandatory military service. Sun was signed under Jungiery since his earlier days; this was how he used his connection with the company to secure the second part of his career
