Is Apink's Revolution a Really Failure?

On September 26, Apink made a comeback with its new album "Pink Revolution." Have you listened to the title track "Only one"? I like the song, personally. However, the result is below expectations. The song fell spots to round out the top 10 of Melon chart only a week after it was released. The result is quite shocking because Apink has been always considered as one of the most popular kpop girl groups. Many people in the kpop world are now saying that Apink's comeback is a big failure.
As the Apink members said at their comeback showcase, they dreamed of a revolution when they released the album. They wanted to show more mature aspects of themselves, and that's why they didn't choose a common hook song as their title track. Well, I'm convinced by what they said, and it's notable that the 6th-year girl group took a new challenge. That's why I can't say their comeback is just a failure.
However, I can't say Apink's revolution is a big success either. First, I doubt if their "revolution" was a real revolution because the degree of their musical change was not that big. They just showed a predictable change as a pure and innocent girl group. Second, I cannot help but feel that their change is too late. I've already talked about this issue several times, but Apink has stuck to their pure conception since debut and hasn't taken any risk of change until they released "Pink Revolution." It seems like Apink and its agency just began to be aware of a crisis situation that the number of girl groups who are younger and more lovely than Apink is rapidly increasing.
So, Apink is now standing at the parting of the ways of its career. There's no right answer, but one thing is certain that Apink needs to show real revolution next time. Apink is no more a young and fresh rookie girl group. A hopeful thing about Apink's future is that the members are still very pretty and attractive, while they didn't show everything that they have yet.
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...

"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...
