[Interview] Wooyoung wanted to give up everything 5 years ago but didn't because of 2PM


Q. You finally made a comeback as a solo singer. It has been five and a half years since you released your first mini album in 2012.
Wooyoung: I'm filled with emotion. Of course, I feel pressured to do well, but I'm really happy that I can introduce my music to many people.

Q. Tell me about your title track.
Wooyoung: The title track "Ddook" is a song about a man who is in the sorrow of parting but promises himself he will never cry again. (“Ddook” is a Korean onomatopoeia that indicates a sudden stop or drop, and is often used to tell someone to stop crying) Thanks to Park Jin Young's advice, I could upgrade the song.

Q. When do you think 2PM will make a comeback?
Wooyoung: Since all the members have to fulfill military duty, it will take 4-5 years, I think. I'm thinking of joining the army later this year. I've been trying to concentrate on my work because I'm a member of 2PM and I didn't want to cause damage to my team, but frankly speaking, I want to join the army as soon as possible because I feel like I'm not a real man yet.


Q. Is Taecyeon doing good in the army?
Wooyoung: Yeah, he's doing really great. He has adapted well to the military system. He seems to be a born soldier. He lost some weight, and he looked great.

Q. What if you enter Taecyeon's unit and he becomes your senior soldier?
Wooyoung: It would be not bad, but I want to serve in a different unit because he is not the man who will make things comfortable for me, haha.

Q. It has been 10 years since you debuted. Were there hard times in your career?
Wooyoung: 5 years ago, I was really confused because I gained great popularity when I was very young. I felt awkward about all the things. And I wanted to give up everything. However, I couldn't betray 2PM members. I overcame all difficulties thanks to 2PM. I live because of 2PM, and I want to be a great solo singer because of 2PM.

Q. It has been a long time since you appeared in a drama.
Wooyoung: Yeah, I made an appearance in "Dream High" in 2011, and there still are many people who say they've enjoyed watching the drama. I'm and idol and there have been many chances to act, but I didn't want to sugar coat my appearance in a drama by calling it "challenge". For now, I want to concentrate on my music. I will act when I really want to act and have an audition.

About MR, AR, LMR and LAR: Do Kpop Idols Really Sing Live?

"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

The Korean hip hop duo that consists of Choiza and Gaeko is regarded as the representative hip hop artist in Korea, while the two met in the 6th grade of elementary school and have a long standing history of being friends. Choiza and Gaeko started to work together through an underground hip hop scene named CB Mass and then came to establish Dynamic Duo in 2003. Well, the duo's new album 'A Giant Step' includes two tracks, 'AEAO' and 'Animal', while the album really shows a giant step because it was co-produced by world famous hip hop artist DJ Premier, who has worked with popular stars such as Jay Z, Kanye West, The Black Eyed Peas, and Maroon 5. Celebrating its releasing new album, Dynamic Duo held a press conference with DJ Premier in Seoul, but all the people's concerns were centered on Choiza's scandal with f(x)'s Sulli.

The Truth About WGM: Were Taemin and Naeun Really Dating?

Image
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

Secret about kpop idol stars' microphones

Image
Have you ever been curious about k-pop idols' microphones? Unless you are a professional, it’s difficult to know the details about the microphones. However, there’s a very simple way to make a guess at what kind of microphone your favorite idol star uses. Well, the way is to classify the microphones by their colors. Colors of microphones do not always mean everything, but like I said, you can at least make a guess at what kind of microphones those are. Flesh-Colored Microphone You might see the flesh-colored microphones frequently in various k-pop chart shows. Those are the basic microphones offered by the broadcasting company. People in the k-pop world usually call it "Band-Aid." The microphone is cheap, and it doesn't perform well. However, it doesn't matter because not a few incompetent idols depend on their AR and just pretend to sing live. Black Microphone The black microphone is not offered by the broadcasting company. If an idol group's
