On September 30, Ailee released her first ever full album and held a comeback showcase in Seoul. As you may know, she broke her toe when she filmed music video on September 7 and she had to sing her new songs in her chair at the showcase. However, the kpop diva caught eyes and ears of people by showing outstanding singing performance. Here's what Ailee talked about her first full album.
Q. It has been 3 years and 7 months since you debuted, and you finally released your first full album. How do you feel? Ailee: Actually, I feel burdened about my full album. I couldn't release my full album because I thought I was not ready. I wanted to put much effort into my full album, and much time has passed because I had to collect good songs. I want to show a vivid color of my music through my first ever full album. As always, I want to give the album ten out of ten.
Q. Your fans are worried because of your injury. Ailee: I had many great things to show, but it's sad that I can't show all of them because of my injury. I want to say sorry to my fans. However, I wanted to see my fans as soon as possible. That's why I made a comeback in spite of my injury.
Q. Then can't you show your dance performance on the stage? Ailee: To my regret I have to sing my new songs in my chair because I hurt my toe. I will try to express emotions through my eyes.
Q. It seems that you always show your strong character in your songs.
Ailee: The composers always give me songs about a strong woman. I think that kind of song reminds the composers of me. Actually, I like to sing some lovely songs too. I'm a teary woman.
Q. It's notable that you took part in writing 7 out of 10 tracks of the album.
Ailee: I focused on story lines when I wrote the lyrics of the songs. For example, 'Second Chance' is the song about the real story of my close friend's junior colleague. The song has a funny love story.
Q. You went on a severe diet before you released 'Don't Touch Me' last year. Wasn't there any side-effect from dieting too much?
Ailee: As I lost my belly fat, I was lacking in strength when I sang. That's why I has started to exercise even though I can't exercise these days because of my injury. I broke my toe only 3 weeks after I started exercise.
Q. So, what's your goal as a singer?
Ailee:I want to keep challenging myself. I will always try new genres of music. And I want to hear that I sing very well now and for ever.
"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
There are so many girl groups in the world of kpop. When kpop agencies are preparing for their girl groups' debut, they consider numerous factors regarding Korean music market to produce a successful outcome. Many of you might think that girl groups have to capture male fans' hearts, while boy groups should use opposite strategy. However, it's not true. Female fans are usually more loyal to their stars than male fans are. Female fans buy concert tickets, CDs, and merchandises. Furthermore, female fans' love toward their stars last longer. That's why not only boy groups but also girl groups should target female fans. SM entertainment is the kpop agency which is so good at this. Whenever SM prepares for its girl group's debut or comeback, the SM staffs discuss about what they need to do to capture female fans' hearts. So, here are some requirements for kpop girl groups who are loved by female fans. 1. Stylish and attractive: Idol singer has to be a
Q. You made a comeback with your new songs "Playing with fire" and "Stay." How do you feel? Rose: We've worked really hard on preparing for our comeback. Please give us lots of love. Jisoo: We made a comeback but it feels like it's our debut. Frankly speaking, I've been really worried if people are not interested in us because we didn't appear in many TV programs since our debut. Lisa: We prepared so much to show great performance. Please look forward to it. Jennie: I feel very nervous and excited at the same time. Q. It seems like Yang Hyun Suk cares much about you. Jisoo: He always sends us encouraging messages and says nice things about us. I think it is because we're rookies. He is like our father. Jennie: When we won a No.1 trophy on a music chart show, he captured the TV screen and sent it to us with a congratulatory message. Q. How were your trainee years? Lisa: It was hard for me to communicate with other people becaus
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
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
