Here's a working link for my old Drunken Tiger review (annoyingly, the Village Voice re-did their URLs, destroying old links in the process). Among my many ignorances when writing that review was that I thought all the members of Drunken Tiger had been born in the L.A. area and came late to the Korean language. That may have been true of Roscoe Umali, possibly was true of DJ Shine (Wikip doesn't list a place of birth though gives South Korea as his "origin"), but definitely is not true of Tiger JK, who was born in Seoul, moved with his family to the U.S. at age 12, went back and forth between the two countries making music as a young man, and now seems to work mainly out of South Korea. As petronia notes above, he's married to the excellent rapper and singer Yoon Mi-rae, a.k.a. T, born in Texas (mother Korean-American, father African-American), whose career began in South Korea when she was a teenager.
