Kpop Album Review: 2PM Achieves Successful Independence From Park Jin Young


2PM made a comeback with its 4th full album 'Go Crazy'. It has been about a year and 4 months since the group released its 3rd full album 'Grown' last year, and the group's latest album has a total of 11 songs including the title track 'Go Crazy'.

Before releasing the album, 2PM announced that the title track will be written by Jun.K, which is very uncommon for JYP artists because the title tracks of JYP artists' albums have been usually written by the executive producer Park Jin Young. It is the first time for 2PM to release an album with its member's own song since the group debuted in 2008. So, interest was on whether 2PM can achieve successful independence from Park Jin Young through the album.

Since its debut, 2PM has gained popularity by showing its own characteristic performances. Unlike other pretty boy groups, 2PM showed off its energetic masculine beauty as you can see through its hits such as '10 out of 10' and 'Hands up'.

However, 2PM went to a big change through its 3rd full album. 'A.D.T.O.Y' and 'Comeback when you hear this song' were relatively emotional and lyrical tracks. It's true that the group experienced growth in its musical career through the album, but it looked that the two songs, which were written by Park Jin Young, didn't suit energetic and healthy boy group 2PM.


Well, 2PM recovered its energy through its latest album. The title track 'Go Crazy', written by Jun.K, maximizes the group's energetic charm. The 2PM members do not pretend that they are charismatic or serious. Instead, they just show themselves the way they are and fascinate fans with their intimate magnetism. It looks that 7th-year idol star 2PM finally found clothes to fit them. With Jun.K's own song, 2PM is having a new beginning.

'Go Crazy' is a dance music that is based on disco and house. When 2PM performs the song on stage, the members seem to just enjoy themselves. Yeah, that is 2PM. Even before releasing 'Go Crazy', Jun.K has already been recognized as a competitive singer-song writer by writing all the tracks of his Japanese solo album. The solo album, which was released last May, topped Oricon's daily album chart and Tower Record's daily chart in Japan.

I'm sure that 2PM's energetic, intimate, and sexy music will make many female fans fall in love with the group.

K-pop Trainee’s Daily Schedule

Image
I’m sure you’re very curious about k-pop trainee’s daily schedule. Well, it differs from case to case, but let me explain about the general case. If you become a k-pop trainee, you should follow the daily schedule below.

8 a.m. : School attendance
As most of k-pop trainees are students, they should go to school in the morning. They try not to skip breakfast if possible because it’s important for them to manage their health. At their school, they take classes just like the other ordinary students, but they usually listen to music during break time to make preparations for their weekly test. They sometimes write song lyrics, while there are also some passionate trainees who practice singing and dancing at their school.

5 p.m. : Go to practicing room
After school is over, trainees go to their practicing rooms. The first thing they do when they arrive at their practicing rooms is give their cellphones and diaries to people who manage them. They get their cellphones back after they finish a…

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 some he…

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

Image
"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 just mean they …
