Q. You have wrapped up your solo activity successfully. How do you feel? Sungkyu: It was my first solo album in 3 years, and I did my best to promote the album. Before releasing the album, I talked to Nell's Kim Jong Wan, "I hope I can be proud of the album." I'm proud of it now.
Q. You have double title tracks, 'Kontrol' and 'The Answer'. Are there any reasons you selected the two songs as title tracks? Sungkyu: At first, I considered 'Kontrol' and 'Alive' as title tracks. However, people said that 'The Answer' is more easy to listen to. After mastering 'The Answer', I thought the sound is really awesome. I'm deeply attached to the song.
Q. Both of the title tracks have gained great popularity, anyway. Sungkyu: Actually, I thought 'Kontrol' will be more popular than 'The Answer'. However, many people liked 'The Answer' better. Yeah, the outcome of the album is hard to foretell. I'm so grateful for my fans' infinite love.
Q. After you topped music chart show, did you talk with the Infinite members?
Sungkyu: Yeah, I made a boast of it and promised them that I will stand shot to them. I thought the members will never watch my performance on music chart show, but they watched it. They said it was good.
Q. Didn't they advise you?
Sungkyu: Hoya talked about dance performance. He told me that it would be better to show some more dance performance on stage. Well, I didn't accept his advice, though. He's a dancing machine, but I'm not.
Q. You are 27 years old, and the title of the album is '27' too. Is the album autobiographical?
Sungkyu: Nell's Kimg Jong Wan, who has produced the album, said that he wanted to tell my stories through the album. And I told him my life stories. However, I'm not sure if the album is autobiographical or not. I think some parts of the album is autobiographical. After being thirty, I want to sing about my life, loneliness, and happiness.
Q. Don't you have a plan to hold your solo concert?
Sungkyu: If I have a chance. I think I have sufficient songs to sing because I've released 2 mini albums. I have my solo songs that were included in INFINITE's album too. I want to hold my solo concert within this year if my agency allows it.
Q. When will INFINITE's new album be released?
Sungkyu: We're working on the album. We were originally scheduled to release the album in May 2015, but it was postponed. We'll hold an exclusive concert too.
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...
In October 2015, IU’ her agency accepted that the female star is dating musician Jang Kiha. It was a surprising news because they seemed to have nothing in common. And some of you might think it was unbelievable because Jang Ki Ha is 11 years older than IU and he doesn't looks handsome at all. However, things really do happen for a reason. Let's see how and why the nation’s little sister fell in love with Jang Kiha The two met each other for the first time in October 2013. IU made a guest appearance in Jang Kiha's radio program, and they took a commemorative photograph after the broadcast. Well, it was a fateful meeting because both of them fell in love at first sight. IU's cheerful and lively, but at the same time very polite and has an old head on young shoulders. She has maturity beyond her years. Most of young women who are about the same age as IU like handsome guys. However, IU is different. She is the one who thinks what’s inside is more important than...
The location of k-pop idols' dorms Most of k-pop idols live close to their agencies. There are two reasons for it. First, it's important for k-pop idols to live close to their practice rooms because they spend a great deal of time in practicing. Second, from the point of view of k-pop agencies, it's easy for them to manage their idols if idols live close to their agencies. And sometimes, k-pop idols live close to hair shops to handle their time effectively. Here are places where many k-pop idol groups' dorms are located. Gangnam, Cheongdam, nearby Youngdong bridge, nearby Konkuk University, Hapjeong and nearby Hongik University. A notable thing is that most of k-pop agencies don't let their idol groups live close to idol groups of the opposite sex. When do they move? Most of the time, the period of k-pop idols' lease contract is 2 years. So, they usually move out every 2 years. Of course, if they want to move to a very nice house, they should bec...
1. NCT Ten I really like Taemin. He's my idol. I'll do my best to become like him. 2. NCT Haechan Taemin is my role model. SHINee's "Replay" was my first ever k-pop song. It was like a destiny. In the morning, I got up so early before going to school, and I turned on the TV. And the music video of "Replay" was about to begin. Watching the music video, I thought I want to film such a great music video and show such a great performance. 3. SEVENTEEN Jeonghan I like Taemin the most. Since his debut, he's been improving all the time even though he has already become a top star. I hope to learn that, and I want to improve my singing skills to become a helpful member for our team. I know I have to try really hard to become like Taemin. 4. Monsta X Kihyun I want to exchange phone numbers with Taemin. He has a kind of mysterious vibe about him. Like if we greet with "Hello!", he will say "Hello~~", he seems to...
Q. You topped various online music charts with your new song "Very Very Very." How do you feel? Nayoung: Actually, we didn't expect it and we just tried to do our best and enjoy our comeback. We do appreciate our fans' love, and we'll do our best in return for their love. Q. It's notable that the song is written by Park Jin Young. Somi: Well, as he is the representative producer of my agency, I was very nervous when I recorded the song. However, I felt great too because it was the first time for me to sing my song in front of him. He said that I'm very poor at Aegyo and I need to sing a song with more feelings. Sejung: I met Park Jin Young for the first time when I took part in "Kpop Star" 5 years ago. When we recorded "Very Very Very," he told me that I've grown up a lot since 5 years ago. My heart was filled with pride at that time. Q. A song written by B1A4's Jinyoung is included in the album too. Yeonju...
