Will Yang Hyun Suk make Big Bang go head to head against EXO?


Will Big Bang and EXO, the two dominant kpop idol groups, go head to head against each other? The battle between the two groups is drawing all the kpop fans' attention.

Well, EXO will release its new album at the end of March.(Of course, it can be delayed a little bit. It depends on the circumstances) It has been about 10 months since the group released its his 'Overdose' in May 2014.

EXO's new song 'Call me baby' was unveiled through the group's exclusive concert held in Seoul, and the refined track is attractive enough to capture hearts of teenage fans. Here's the video for the song.


Meanwhile, Big Bang is currently hard at work on its upcoming new album. It has been about 3 years since the group released 'Still Alive' in 2012, and of course, fans are showing special interest in the group's new album.

It is expected that Big Bang will release the album sometime in April, and if Big Bang moves up the release date of the album, the group will be able to go head to head against EXO.

However, it is still unclear that the two popular kpop idol groups will face off against each other because the groups' agencies manage their artists in totally different ways.

SM manages its artists according to thorough future plan. SM has already finished making a plan for 2015. EXO's comeback is a part of it.


However, YG's way of managing its artists basically depends on Yang Hyun Suk's choices and decisions. For this reason, Big Bang's comeback date is relatively more flexible than EXO's. Even though Big Bang produces a perfect album, it can not be released without Yang Hyun Suk's determination.

So, it's up to Yang Hyun Suk whether EXO and Big Bang will go head to head against each other.

There are two scenarios. First, Yang Hyun Suk, who is well known as an adventurer in the world of kpop, can release Big Bang's new album just after EXO's album is released.

In 2014, Yang Hyun Suk released 2NE1's album just 3 days after Girls' Generation album was released. This really helped 2NE1 because the girl group, who experienced a slump in 2013, became even with Girls' Generation after the big match.

And here's second scenario. Without a doubt, EXO is the most popular kpop idol group. However, Big Bang debuted 6 years earlier than the group and has achieved so many things. For Yang Hyun Suk, the battle between Big Bang and EXO can be double or nothing. For this reason, there is a prospect that Yang Hyun Suk will delay Big Bang's comeback a little bit.

So, what do you think? If Big Bang and EXO face off against each other in April, who will be the winner?

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 …

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 agency has aspir…
