BTOB made a comeback with its first full album on June 29. The album, title, 'Complete', has a total of 13 songs including the title track 'It's OK'. The boy group held a comeback showcase event in Seoul and talked about the album. Let's see how the BTOB members think about their first ever full album.
Q. Why did you choose 'It's OK' as the title track of your first full album? Isn't it uncommon for an idol group to choose ballad song as title track? Changsub: When we were preparing for the album, we were so confident. We weren't even afraid when the album was released. I think we can show what we can do best through the album. Eunkwang: When we listened to 'It's OK' for the first time, all of the members thought that it's really great song. The song really matches well with BTOB's style. Hyunsik: The song has empathic lyrics and sweet melody. It is an earnest song.
Peniel: It has been 4 years since we debuted, and we finally released our first full album. It is more meaningful that the members took part in making the album. Minhyuk: We thank our fans for waiting. Before releasing the album, just the thought of it made my heart flutter.
Q. Did you prepare any choreography for the ballad track? Peniel: It's not fancy dance, but we will show new performance by using chairs and mic stands on stage. Eunkwang: It is very emotional choreography. I want you to listen to the lyrics carefully and be healed by the song.
Q. Tell me about the music video of the song. Sungjae: We've usually shown our group dances through our music videos. But all the members acted this time. The music video is about overcoming hardships.
Q. Sungjae, you've appeared on some dramas. Did you advise the other members how to act? Sungjae: I don't think I act very well. All the members took acting lessons from same teacher. The other members do better than me, but they had no chance to show it. All the members acted really well in the music video. By the way, I think Eunkwang tries to look cute as he grows older.
Q. Sungjae, you are loved by so many people these days. You attracted people's attention by appearing on 'King of Masked Singer' and 'We Got married'.
Sungjae: I couldn't expect to gain popularity in such a short time. I'm nothing. It's an honor, and I feel responsible for what I do and what I say. I will work harder.
Eunkwang: Sungjae's success is a great motivation for the other members.
Q. Popular kpop girl groups such as SISTAR, AOA, and MAMAMOO are now promoting their new albums, while other famous girl groups including APink, Girls' Generation, Girl's Day, and 9 Muses will made comeback too. What do you think of the competition with the girl groups?
Changsub: I hope all the girl groups will be able to be healed by our song.
Eunkwang: I think we can differentiate ourselves from the girl groups because we released this kind of sweet song in summer.
Sungjae: We want to appeal to our fans by showing our singing ability and giving a heartwarming feeling. I don't want to compete with the girl groups. I like girl groups too.
Who's your favorite Korean actress? Well, here are 3 representative hallyu actresses, Jun Jihyun, Park Shinhye, and Min Hyorin. Yeah, Jun Jihyun and Park Shinhye are recognized hallyu stars, while some of you might disagree with including Min Hyorin in the 3 representative hallyu actresses. But, as you know, she is Big Bang Taeyang's girl and I think many people are interested in her. Anyway, I've interviewed all of them and I'd like to talk about the 3 actresses' real personality. Jun Jihyun is beautiful. Everyone who sees her in person says she's a goddess. She has small face and long legs. And she has an elegant atmosphere. I don't know if it was intended, but she was absolutely different from ordinary people when she talked and acted. Yeah, she talks and acts like a real celebrity. As she shows her pride and elegance when she is interviewed, some say they feel distance from her. However, it doesn't mean she is pretentious. When she is with the ...
No doubt, GD is the most influential star in the k-pop world. I’ve had an interview with him three times till now, and what I felt about him is that he is a little bit shy of strangers. At first, I was surprised at it because you know, he’s always very charismatic and energetic on the stage and he never looks like the one who is very shy. Even though he is shy of strangers and doesn’t talk much, it doesn’t mean he is just an introvert person. When it comes to his career, he is full of confidence. He has much pride in himself and has a very clear view on his career. Add to this, he has qualities of a leader and is the one who leads the conversation when the 5 BIGBANG members are interviewed by the press. Oh, and one more thing. It seems like he exactly knows how to captivate ladies because many of female k-pop journalists who had an interview with him fell in love with him. When he talks to somebody, he makes eye contact with the person and he sometimes puts on a very attract...
Q. You made a comeback with your new album "Following". How do you feel? Hyuna: I've been preparing for the album since I released Triple H's album last April. I've been looking forward to making a comeback, and I'll show powerful and energetic performance on stage. Q. It's notable that you took part in writing your new songs. What did you care about the most when you were working on the songs? Hyuna: Whenever I work on my new album, I try to get a variety of opinions. My new album was a challenge for me, but I wanted to highlight natural side of myself through the album. Q. So, is that why you took your jacket photos without makeup? Hyuna: As a 26 year old woman, I wanted to photograph natural look of myself. I wore no makeup at all, and that's why you can see my facial blemishes and pores in the photos. It was a real challenge for me, but I wanted to give a special present to my fans who have been supporting me for a long time. Q....
2PM has successfully finished its exclusive concert. The 10th-year boy group held "2PM CONCERT 6Nights" at the Korea University Hwajeong Gymnasium in Seoul from June 2-11. 2PM gave a total of 6 shows, while the shows drew audiences totaling 30,000 people. The 6 members absolutely electrified their fans by showing passionate and energetic live performance. Especially, it seemed they tried to put everything they have into their last show because it was their last concert before their enlistment. At the end of the concert, the members burst into tears, while many fans chanted the their name for about 15 minutes. Taecyeon It feels strange because I'm not sure when I will be able to sing as a member of 2PM again. It certainly will be a precious memory for me to be together with the other members. Please wait for us till we'll be back as a 6-member group. JUN.K It feels really strange because we can't perform as a 6-member group for quite some t...
"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...
