Boohwal, is a Korean rock band formed in 1985 by the guitarist/songwriter Kim Tae Won. He changed the name from The End to Boohwal in ‘86 following the departure of the vocalist Kim Jong Seo. They led the heavy metal boom in the 80’s along with other bands such as Baekdoosan, Sinawe, H2O, and Black Hole. Boohwal, Baekdoosan, and Sinawe were called the ‘Big 3’ by the media as they were all led by talented guitarists (Boohwal – Kim Tae Won, Baekdoosan – Kim Do Kyun, Sinawe – Shin Dae Chul), had unique talented vocalists and all aimed to create heavy metal music. However, unlike bands like Sinawe, they have been concentrating more on Korean-style melodic rock ballads, especially after their 3rd album.
