Q. You released your first ever solo single 'Ordinary Love'. When did the preparations for the song begin? Park Kyung: It was last December. Actually, I really hoped to work with jazz hip hop artist Kero One, who took part in writing the song. I told him that I want to work with him, and we worked on our music through e-mail.
Q. Tell me about the song 'Ordinary Love'. Park Kyung: You know, Block B usually does maniac hip hop music. However, I wanted to release lyrical music as a solo singer. I always write a memo whenever new themes of songs come into my mind. The lyrics of 'Ordinary Love' are from my memo too. People learn about each other, love each other and part from each other. That's 'Ordinary Love'.
Q. Park Boram is featured in the song as a singer. Is there any reason for that? Park Kyung: I really like the melody line of the song's intro. I thought that the repeated melody line should be sung by a female singer. I asked my agency if Park Boram can take part in the song. She did a great job.
Q. So, what did you learn by your first solo album?
Park Kyung: It's true that I settled for the present when I was active as a member of Block B. But during my hiatus, I realized that I should build up brand power of myself. I've been always confident in my music but I had no chance to show it. Starting from now, I'll try hard to let people know about my music.
Q. Block B got into trouble several times since you debuted in 2011. Do you feel uncomfortable about it?
Park Kyung: Well, when I filmed 'Problematic Man', I was leaning on my one foot. But suddenly it came into my head that it can be an issue. I even asked Jeon Hyun Moo if it is OK to stand in such a position. I think I feel uncomfortable about how people see me.
Q. It has been 4 years since you debuted. What can be said about the relationship among the Block B members?
Park Kyung: We take care of each other. For example, I hate that someone wakes me up when I'm sleeping. That's why the members try to be quiet when I'm sleeping. And my room mate Taeil hates that someone touches his clothes. So I always care about it. You know, the fight starts with a trivial misunderstanding.
Q. I heard that you've dropped out of Block B before your debut.
Park Kyung: Yeah, in the past, I was strong-hearted and never tried to read other people's mind. However, my agency said that I'm not gonna be Block B's member and I should be the leader of another idol group. It was my first time to experience failure in my life. It hurt me and I changed. I just laid in bed, refusing all food and drink. I care much about other people these days. Some say I became mature but others say it's cowardly of me.
Q. What's your goal as a singer?
Park Kyung: There are 3 options for idols. Those are entertainment program, drama, and music. For me, music is the way to go. I have a great deal to offer. I want to win recognition from the public as a singer. And I want to do music now and forever.
"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
Dynamic Duo released its new album. The Korean hip hop duo that consists of Choiza and Gaeko is regarded as the representative hip hop artist in Korea, while the two met in the 6th grade of elementary school and have a long standing history of being friends. Choiza and Gaeko started to work together through an underground hip hop scene named CB Mass and then came to establish Dynamic Duo in 2003. Well, the duo's new album 'A Giant Step' includes two tracks, 'AEAO' and 'Animal', while the album really shows a giant step because it was co-produced by world famous hip hop artist DJ Premier, who has worked with popular stars such as Jay Z, Kanye West, The Black Eyed Peas, and Maroon 5. Celebrating its releasing new album, Dynamic Duo held a press conference with DJ Premier in Seoul, but all the people's concerns were centered on Choiza's scandal with f(x)'s Sulli. At the press conference, Choiza didn't talk about the scandal at all, b
As you know, Kpop girl group members look so innocent and cute. We usually describe them as 'fairy'. Then, how about their feet? It seems that they have tiny lovely feet. Well, what do you think? Let's see the shoe sizes of Kpop female idols. Sooyoung has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation's members. Girls' Generation: Soo Young(Big foot) / Sunny, Jessica, Hyo Yeon(Small foot) Soo Young has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation(SNSD) members. It is 245mm. Is there anybody who are diapponted because Soo Young has too big feet? Actually, she is the tallest member too. She is 170cm tall. Let's make a comparison between Soo Young and Tae Yeon. Tae Yeon's shoe size is 240mm and she is 162cm tall. Yoona, Seo Hyun and Yuri's shoe sizes are also 240mm. Three other members have the smallest feet among SNSD's members. Sunny, Jessica and Hyo Yeon's shoe sizes are all the same as 225mm to 230mm. Does it fit your expectation?
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
Goo Hara, a female k-pop star who has achieved tremendous things as a member of popular girl group Kara, is having a hard time. You know, she is currently being investigated for an assault case, and it seems both Goo Hara and her ex-boyfriend Choi Jong Bum, a handsome hair designer who is known as "Yoo Ah-in of Cheongdam-dong", are responsible for causing bodily harm to each other. Goo Hara got bruises all over her body, while the hair designer had scars on her face. But what's even more shocking is that the ex-boyfriend threatened to leak a sex tape with the k-pop idol in it. He threatened to upload footage of their intimate moments on the web as revenge porn following their 30-minute fight. Even though his lawyer stated that there were no such threats made and that filming the sex tape was Goo Hara’s idea to begin with, the statement doesn't sound so reliable because the ex-boyfriend had contacted Dispatch and suggested that he has information worthy of
