Q. You release your solo album. What made you decide to debut as a solo singer? Hyunseung: I think all the idol singers dream of it. As a member of group, it is hard to show my own character. But I can show off my identity as a solo singer. I think BEAST is a very attractive team, and I want to prove that the BEAST members are not only competent as a team but also as solo singers.
Q. So, is there any difference between your activity as a member of you team and as a solo singer? Hyunseung: We need to achieve a comprise during our group activity. If I speak up, it makes the other members tired. However, I took part in many things about my solo album. I took part in making costumes, choreography, and teaser video. I think it made our company employees tired.(laugh) So I titled the album "My."
Q. What is your goal as a solo singer? Hyunseung: I do not enjoy business. And I do not want to show exaggerated performance. I want to carry weight with a lot of people as a solo singer.
Q. It seems that you always try to show off your sexy charm on stage. Hyunseung: Frankly speaking, I'm not that sexy man. Through my solo album, I tried to show my cute and bright side. There are some sexy scenes in the music video, but it's nothing like what I did as a member of BEAST and Trouble Maker.
Q. You filmed sexy scenes with actress Hwang Seung Un. How was it? Hyunseung: Yeah, I scribble on her breasts and kiss her inside the elevator. I was not close with her and it was so embarrassing to film such scenes. When I filmed sexy scenes with Hyuna, it was much more easy because she is my labelmate. I think Hwang Seung Un led me well. And the elevator scene was much more erotic, but it's edited. It was not a real kiss.
Q. Don't you feel any pressure when people say your are a representative sexy male singer? Hyunseung: Yeah, I feel uncomfortable about the title. I think blatant kind of sexy concept is not adapted to me. I wanted to convey natural and casual feelings through my solo album.
Q. What was the hardest thing about releasing your solo album? Hyunseung: It was really hard to select the title track. I eventually selected 'Ma First' as a title track, but 'Breakup with him' is a great song too. I've worked on 'Breakup with him' for a month and a half.
Q. Big Bang made a comeback by releasing its new songs 'LOSER' and 'BAE BAE' on May 1. Don't you feel uncomfortable releasing your album around the same time? Hyunseung:Big Bang is a really huge name. It's just absurd that I face off against the group. Actually, I didn't want to release my album in May but it couldn't be helped due to fixed schedules. I filmed a documentary program with them when I was a trainee, and I'm proud of them for growing up as a huge group. And it's happy that I'm also loved by many people as a member of BEAST.
Q. What is your real personality like? Hyunseung: I'm not the right man for being an entertainer. I'm not active and I'm afraid of strangers. And I'm quiet and enjoy being alone. I think I was lucky. Fortunately, I'm excited when I perform on stage.
Q. When you date somebody, do you usually lead her? Hyunseung: No, I think I'm a bad guy. Even if I like somebody, I do not give her everything. I have a curt manner when I date, and I do not cling to girls. If it's over, it's over.
Q. Don't have plan to write your own songs? Hyunseung: I have an urge to write my own songs. I want to show off my musical talent and earn royalties. I usually write lyrics and make melodies but I think I'm not better than professional song writers yet.
Q. Tell me about BEAST's comeback plan. Hyunseung: We're working on the album. Please wait a bit longer. I think we will be able to make a comeback before summer is over.
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
"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
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 the
