Biography
An SM trainee before transferring to Trifecta Entertainment, Solbi had been trained by songwriter Kim Se-jin for more than two years before her début. However, due to her solo activities, she left Typhoon in 2008.
It is commonly said that Solbi was born in 1983. This is because there had been a misunderstanding while filing her birth certificate, which states that she was born in 1983, while her real birthdate is 1984, which she confirms on a talk show with her mother. Also, her legal name was changed to Kwon Ji Ahn.
Career
Typhoon's first album was released in 2006. The album ranges across disco, reggae, techno and ballads. Although the trio concentrates on dance music, Typhoon wanted to display their talent by offering a variety of songs on their first album.

In February 2008, Solbi was cast in the reality show We Got Married, where celebrities are paired up to live together as newlyweds. Solbi was paired up with Hong Kyeong Min for the Lunar Special episode, but for the rest of the series her partner was Andy of Shinhwa. Through this relationship, she has appeared on other variety shows with Andy's band members Kim Dong Wan, Jun Jin, Shin Hye Sung and Lee Min Woo. She was also cast in MBC mini series 라이프: 특별조사팀 (LIFE: Special Investigation Unit)[2] for seven episodes until she quit due to commitments to We Got Married. Her character, Jung Ju Ri, was written to leave the show because of her upcoming marriage to Andy.[3] Solbi and Andy made their official exit from We Got Married on 5 October 2008.
