Girls' Generation's Tiffany recently visited New York and did photo shoot for Grazia magazine May issue. Here's an interview with her.
Q. How was your photo shoot? Wasn't it cold? Tiffany: Actually, through the photo shoot, I could harden my heart. I just tired to focus on the work because I feel responsible for what I do as a professional. After finishing the photo shoot, I feel like I can do anything.
Q. What have you done during your stay in New York? Tiffany: I booked musical tickets for my staff members. The musical was 'Aladdin'. The musical offers perfect performance. Costumes, stage management, and stage lighting, everything is perfect. When I visited New York before, I watched the awesome musical and I wanted to watch it again with my staff members.
Q. I think you are quite interested in stage management. Tiffany: Yeah, that's right. I'm a little bit sensitive about stage. I want to do many things with stage lighting and set. When I appeared on music chart shows, I talked a lot with the supervisor.
Q. You will host Mnet's 'Heart_a_tag'. Tell me about the program. Tiffany: The title is a mixed word using instagram's heart and tag. The program is about trendy fashion, beauty, and life style. I think I'm lucky because many people have trusted me as a good TV show host since I debuted. The program is not about music, but I'm not worried about it because I always try to study about other fields. Actually, I'm a generous giver and I will inform people of everything that I know about fashion and beauty.
Q. So, what did you buy in New York? Tiffany: You should visit Free People in Rockefeller Center. The shop has ethnic dresses and skinny pants. Last summer, I bought some skinny pants there. And this time, I bought three same skinny pants. Of course, their colors are all different.
Q. What did influence your fashion taste? Tiffany: It's my mom. She has an exceptional sense of style. Since I was young, she has talked me about colors. She said that there is a slight difference even if it is same pink.
Q. Girls' Generation recently released new single 'Catch me if you can'. Tell me about the song. Tiffany: It is an electronic dance music and we show energetic performance through the song. I'm so proud of the performance. I want to give energy to people.
Q. Don't you want to release your solo album? Tiffany: If I have a chance, I want to work on it with good producers in the United States. As I was born in and spent many times there, I feel comfortable if I communicate in English when I work on my album.
Q. It has been already 8 years since you debuted. Tiffany: Yeah, but I still have many things to achieve. I think I have a long way to go.
"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...
2008-2009: Debut and Rising Popularity After spending 10 months as a trainee, IU released "Lost Child" as her first single. She performed the song live for the first time on the music program, M! Countdown, on September 18, 2008, making it her debut performance as a professional singer. "Lost Child" is the lead single from her debut extended play “Lost and Found”, which was released on September 24, 2008. For the album, IU was awarded the "Rookie of the Month" by South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in November 2008. However, the album did not do well commercially. On April 23, 2009, IU launched her first studio album, “Growing Up”, with the lead promotional single, "Boo". She began her album promotion the next day, performing "Boo" on KBS2's Music Bank. The song was noted for its stark contrast in musical style to "Lost Child", which was described as a heavy and dark ballad compared to th...
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...
