On July 13, Infinite made a comeback with its new song 'BAD'. Have you all listened to the song? The impressive track is a mixture of different music genres including hip hop, EDM, and classic, and through the song, you can see how much the 6th-year boy group grew up as a competitive kpop artist. At the Olympic Hall in Seoul Olympic Park, the boy group held a press conference and talked about its new album. As always, the members were cheerful and energetic, while their performance on stage was very charismatic. Park Gyung Rim, who is very close with the Infinite members was the host of the showcase.
Q. It has been a year since you released your album as a 7-member group. I guess you are filled with emotion after finally releasing the album. Sungkyu: As we took a long break after our last album, we cared much about our song, hair style, and costumes. Oh, Sungyeol got a perm.
Sungyeol: I had my hair permed for my upcoming new drama 'D-Day'.
Q. Oh, by the way, Dongwoo, your new hair style is similar with Big Bang Daesung's. Dongwoo: Well, I didn't imitate somebody's hair style. I just wanted to express deep feelings on stage.
Q. Please tell me about your new album. Sungkyu: The album is titled "Reality" and shows who we are at present. L: It's so happy to meet Inspirit along with the other members after a long interval. I want to show our image change as soon as possible. Woohyun: We've prepared for the album for a long time. We started recording our songs in January. There were so many good tracks and we chose the title track very carefully.
Q. Don't you feel some pressure about the success of the album? Hoya: Frankly speaking, we didn't feel any pressure. We are just excited about our comeback. Spending time with our fans is very precious to us.
Q. Your body is in amazing shape. Hoya: I have anger inside me and it is expressed on my muscles of arm. No, actually, I didn't work out for long. Sungkyu, you need to work out, by the way.
Q. Sungyeol, is there anything special you did to prepare for the album? Sungyeol: I practice singing a lot. I hope the practice will pay off.(Dongwoo laughed at this moment)
Q. Dongwoo, why do you laugh? Dongwoo: I laughed just because He's so cute.
Q. Can you tell me about your new album in a word? Hoya: It's "Naked Body." We'll show everything about us. Woohyun: Yeah, it's "Real." L: It's a "Crystal." We clinched our teeth.
Q. The title track 'BAD' is about a bad woman. Have you ever fallen in love with bad woman? Sungkyu: Yes, but it's water under the bridge now. I once loved a bad woman and was attracted to her. I want to tell her to lead a good life.
Q. If your song claims the top spot on various music chart shows, what will you do for your fans? Woohyun: I think Hoya will show his "Naked Body." Hoya: What? Sungjong: How about wearing a horse mask?(One of the members said they can't do it because Dongwoo is already wearing a horse mask on his face)
Hoya: OK, we'll release a special choreography video.
Q. Woohyun, which group do you like better, Toheart or Infinite? Woohyun: Toheart? I've just forgotten about Toheart because it has been a long time since the group's album was released, haha. I think there were too many things I had to do because Toheart has only 2 members. I feel better when I perform on stage with all the Infinite members. We're like a family. Sungkyu: Dongwoo and Hoya released Infinite H's album, while I made a comeback as a solo singer and Infinite F released their album too. However, Woohyun had no chance to perform on stage for a long time. He spent time playing soccer. Woohyun: Frankly speaking, I forgot how to put on my inear headphones. I will try to get used to things soon.
Q. Sungkyu, do you think your activity as a solo singer had a effect on your team? Sungkyu: I think it had a positive effect on the team. It is a stimulus for us. I live with Hoya and Dongwoo, and we talked a lot about Infinite H's album and my solo album. By the way, I removed my eye-line when I released my solo album, but I can't when I perform on stage as a member of Infinite. All of the other members of my team are handsome, but I'm not. I think I can cause a damage to the team.
Q. Except for Hoya and Dongwoo, were there any members who gave advice about your solo album? Sungkyu: L said he is looking forward to my next solo album. He looks indifferent but he always gives objective comments on my album. Actually, I always review his acting objectively too, haha.
Q. Don't you want to release your solo album, Woohyun? Woohyun: Honestly, I want to release my solo album too. My parents always ask me about it. I will release my solo album some time or other.
Q. What do you think is the secret of your long-run as a 6th-year group? Sungyeol: Our team work is in perfect harmony Woohyun: We always try to be together with our fans. Sungkyu: I can say with confidence that we are one of the most experienced kpop groups because we held so many concerts.
"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
In 2014, EXO's Chinese member Kris filed a lawsuit against SM entertainment, insisting that his exclusive contract with the agency should be nullified. And he finally left the agency, while another Chinese EXO member Luhan also filed a lawsuit against SM in the year. And in 2015, Tao decided to leave the agency too. After filing lawsuits, they said “SM didn't respect us at all. SM has treated us like subjects of control and determined our schedules unilaterally. And we had economic difficulties despite much work.” Well, I think many of k-pop fans may consider unfair contract between SM and the Chinese members as the main reason why the idol singers filed lawsuits. You know, it was not the first time that SM’s idol singer filed a lawsuit against the agency. The former TVXQ members Kim Junsu, Park Yoochun and Kim Jaejoong had been in a legal battle with SM for about 3 years, while Hangeng of Super Junior has also filed a lawsuit against SM, insisting that his contract wit
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

JYJ's Kim Junsu has his villa “Brown Stone Legend” in Samseong-dong, Seoul. It costs about 2.6 million dollars, while his team mate Kim Jae Joong also lives in there as Junsu's good neighbor. Actually, before being independent of his parents, he has lived in a detached house placed in Paju city with parents. The house has all the luxurious items like fountain and saloon bar. It costs about 1.6 million dollars, and Junsu gave the house to his mother as a present. BoA lives in “Sangji Ritzville” placed in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul. Girls' Generation's Jessica is her neighbor.

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
