APink released its new album 'Pink LUV' on November 24, while the album has a total of 5 songs including the title track 'LUV'. Have you listened to the album? As soon as being released, 'LUV' topped various online music charts, and APink absolutely proved its dominance in the world of Kpop.
Well, there are some reasons for APink's success. Pretty and lovely looks of the members? Yes, of course. But, I mean, in terms of music, APink has some unique characteristics.
You may have heard of some of legendary Kpop girl groups' names such as SES and Fin.K.L. SES and Fin.K.L are called first generation Kpop girl groups, while the girl groups were hugely popular in the 90s. You can say that the groups are the roots of second and third generation Kpop girl groups such as Girls' Generation, 2NE1, Wonder Girls, f(x), Girl's Day, and APink because lots of Kpop agencies followed the example of SES and Fin.K.L in producing new girl groups.
For the last 20 years, there have been so many Kpop girl groups, and the musical styles of the girl groups gradually changed too. Actually, idol music goes out of date very, very quickly these days.
However, APink's new song 'LUV' goes against the trend. The song reminds people of Kpop girl groups' music in the 90s, while the song's melody progresses in a similar way to SES or Fin.K.L's old hits. As you can see in the case of APink's another song 'NoNoNo' too, the girl group has been sticking to this strategy for years. Because of this, yes, there sometimes has been a plagiarism controversy over APink's album. But I think it's quite a smart strategy. Why?
The repetitive chorus of 'LUV' including the lyrics "L.O.V.E LUV" is very very catchy, and the rhythm and melody of the song are easy to learn, while Korean music fans who are familiar to 90s-style kpop girl group music, may feel like they've listened to the song before. These days, there's very few Kpop girl groups who release songs that have a simple, retro-style melody just like APink. In this way, APink was able to differentiate it from other girl groups, and took the initiative in the world of Kpop.
And one more thing. APink has maintained its pure and innocent concept since its debut in 2011. But this time, it looks that the members became a little bit more mature. It's autumn, and it seems that the girl group's agency wanted to express some autumnal feelings, while 'LUV' is about a woman who experienced parting.
Even though I can't find any other musically impressive tracks in the album, it is certain that APink succeeded in giving off its own charm through 'LUV'.(Park Chorong took part in writing the lyrics for 'Wanna Be'. The lyrics are about unrequited love. My evaluation for the lyrics? Not bad) And the group proved that it is now one of the most popular young Kpop girl groups along with Girl's Day.
Oh, and I want to specifically mention about APink's main vocalist Jung Eunji. The female Kpop star who is well known for her great singing skill, shows off her fabulous voice through the album. If it were not for Eunji, the songs would be indifferent tracks.
"Do k-pop idols really sing live? It's not an easy question to answer because the answer to the question could be both yes and no. Well, I want to talk about details about k-pop idols' live performance on the stage. Have you heard about MR, AR, LMR, and LAR? If you get to know about these terms, you will be able to have a good understanding of k-pop idols' live performance." MR(Music Recorded) Basically, MR means instrumental accompaniment. Have you been to karaoke? MR is like karaoke music which doesn’t contain the sound of singer’s voice. However, there is no k-pop idol who uses such a clear MR, while all the k-pop idols’ MR contains sounds of their voices. Before performing their songs on k-pop chart shows, k-pop idols should make their MR, and the way how they make MR is to decrease the sound volume of their voices in original music, while keeping the sound volume of instrumental accompaniment as it is. So, to k-pop idols, singing to MR doesn’t j
YG Entertainment's new boy group Winner. After going through rigorous training programs, they are about to make debut as professional singers. As you may already know, k-pop idols should go through their training period before making a debut. K-pop agencies train the trainees in their own systematic ways, and trainees need to hang in there if they want to become stars. SM Entertainment, home to famous k-pop stars such as TVXQ, Super Junior, BoA and EXO, is regarded as the k-pop agency which formulated the training system for the first time, while Korean music industry has been producing many competitive singers through the meticulous training system. So, let's talk about k-pop idol's trainee life. Super Junior's Eunhyuk and Donghae had been trained hard as SM Entertainment's trainees. Kpop Trainee's Daily Schedule Countless trainees have to go through rigorous training program. From morning till night, trainees take a variety of lessons. Vocal and
Have you watched “We Got Married”? As you know, the program is about male and female stars who entered their imaginary married life. Well, some of you may wonder if the couple's love for each other is real. Let's talk about the truth about “We Got Married.” Is WGM Scripted? Before filming the program, the production crew delivers scripts to the cast. However, the scripts of “We Got Married” are totally different from those of dramas or movies. The scripts of “We Got Married” do not have any detailed words. They just include general explanation of situation. For example, “It’s the day you move into your new apartment,” “It’s the day you introduce your wife to your friends,” etc. On the basis of the scripts, the cast prepares for clothes, accessories and more. And during filming the program, the production crew occasionally intervenes in the couple’s dating because the young cast who is unused to a real variety show such as SHINee's Taemin and APink's Naeun needs
As you know, Kpop girl group members look so innocent and cute. We usually describe them as 'fairy'. Then, how about their feet? It seems that they have tiny lovely feet. Well, what do you think? Let's see the shoe sizes of Kpop female idols. Sooyoung has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation's members. Girls' Generation: Soo Young(Big foot) / Sunny, Jessica, Hyo Yeon(Small foot) Soo Young has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation(SNSD) members. It is 245mm. Is there anybody who are diapponted because Soo Young has too big feet? Actually, she is the tallest member too. She is 170cm tall. Let's make a comparison between Soo Young and Tae Yeon. Tae Yeon's shoe size is 240mm and she is 162cm tall. Yoona, Seo Hyun and Yuri's shoe sizes are also 240mm. Three other members have the smallest feet among SNSD's members. Sunny, Jessica and Hyo Yeon's shoe sizes are all the same as 225mm to 230mm. Does it fit your expectation?
Goo Hara, a female k-pop star who has achieved tremendous things as a member of popular girl group Kara, is having a hard time. You know, she is currently being investigated for an assault case, and it seems both Goo Hara and her ex-boyfriend Choi Jong Bum, a handsome hair designer who is known as "Yoo Ah-in of Cheongdam-dong", are responsible for causing bodily harm to each other. Goo Hara got bruises all over her body, while the hair designer had scars on her face. But what's even more shocking is that the ex-boyfriend threatened to leak a sex tape with the k-pop idol in it. He threatened to upload footage of their intimate moments on the web as revenge porn following their 30-minute fight. Even though his lawyer stated that there were no such threats made and that filming the sex tape was Goo Hara’s idea to begin with, the statement doesn't sound so reliable because the ex-boyfriend had contacted Dispatch and suggested that he has information worthy of
