Do you notice their names? I put them in the order of the letters TRAX. The band's name was made from this: "Typhoon of the Rose Attack on X-mas". The band is active in South Korea and Japan but haven't made it big because rock genre isn't the taste of Korean music. That and there are so many rock bands in Japan, and Korean pop singers are trying to get fame in Japan.
The band gets by without Rose by using support drummers. On September 3, 2006, Choi Si Won of Super Junior filled in as the support drummer for a performance of "초우 (初雨)" on "SBS Inkigayo".

Trax Latest News
**Unfortunately there is none at the moment**
In regards to Typhoon's health problems last year this is the last I've heard. It's a "diary entry" from the Official Japanese Trax website. This is a very rough translation... and the entry dates back to last year so I'm sure a lot has changed. This is, however the last I heard about Typhoon and his throat problems. If anyone has anything more up to date, lemme know
