Biography

Ji-In Cho began an extensive musical education, including piano lessons, when she was six years old.[6] Later she studied Music (Cologne music academy) and Theology (University of Cologne).

In 2003, Cho was unwittingly registered by a friend to the German edition of the Fame Academy television show for musical talents. For the show she recorded a cover version of Alanis Morissette's song "Ironic" which brought her into the German singles charts.[7] In the end she became a member of the band Become One that was formed by successful contestants of the show.[2]

Since December 2004, Cho has been the lead singer of the band Krypteria, whose single "Liberatio" was used for a charity campaign in aid of the tsunami victims in Southeast Asia. The outcome was proceeds of Euro 11 Million by selling 150,000 singles. "Liberatio" reached the status of a golden record and had the chart position No.3 for many weeks.
