On April 17, Minzy, the former member of 2NE1 held a showcase event for her solo album in Seoul. I attended the event, and you know, as it is her first ever solo album, she looked a little bit nervous but she showed great performance.
How do you like her title track "Ninano"? Well, "Ninano" is a trendy song based on Hip Hop, and yeah, it is basically similar to 2NE1's songs. But it is very notable that Minzy represents the soul and massive talent of a true singer. Through the song, she does what she is able to do so well, proving she's not only a great dancer but also a competent vocalist. You know, she had such a long hiatus as a member of 2NE1, and it seems like she really wanted to show that she can do tremendously well as a solo singer.
So, let's see what Minzy talked about her first ever solo album and 2NE1.
Q. You released your first ever solo album. How do you feel?
Minzy: I'm very nervous, of course. But I know it's a great opportunity for me, and I hope I will reach more fans. Q. Did you have any difficulties when you were preparing for the album? Because it is your first ever album since you left YG and 2NE1 in 2016.
Minzy: I didn't have any difficulties, but it was never easy to build futures of my own. And it's true I felt pressured to meet the expectations of many people after leaving YG, but I'm sure it acted as a stimulus to me.
Q. So, what made you decide to leave YG and 2NE1?
Minzy: Because my contract with YG has expired. And I had to make a choice because I wanted to show new sides of me.
Q. How do you feel about YG now?
Minzy: Well, YG is like my hometown. I've learned singing and dancing there. YG helped me a lot, and I know YG made me who I am.
Q. How about Yang Hyunsuk?
Minzy: I'm sure he's proud of me because I was just an elementary student when we met for the first time. He'll support me a lot even though I don't belong to YG any more.
Q. Do you still keep in touch with the 2NE1 members?
Minzy: Yeah, we contact each other often. Lately, they called me after watching "Sister's slam dunk 2".
Q. It seems like many fans were disappointed because you didn't participate in singing 2NE1's last song "Goodbye".
Minzy: I know many fans were disappointed about it, and I was disappointed about it too. However, I just supported the members because it was the last song of 2NE1.
Q. How do you like your new agency?
Minzy: YG was very systematic and it had its own rules. Music Works, on the other hand, has a family-like atmosphere. We're like family, and I'm really enjoying my life in Music Works because I can always share many of my views and opinions.
Q. It's notable that Flowsik is featured in your title track as a rapper.
Minzy: After watching his performance with Bohyung of SPICA, I was charmed by his voice. I wanted to perform with him, and I contacted him.
Q. Tell me about the title track "Ninano".
Minzy: I think people expect me to show some great dance performances. I wanted to show a splendid performance, and that's why I chose the song as the title track.
Q. How about "Beautiful lie"? You took part in writing the song.
Minzy: I've been interested in writing songs, and I'm happy that I can get a chance to include my own song in my solo album. I'm usually inspired by movies and dramas when I write songs.
Q. What's your goal as a solo singer?
Minzy: I'll just try to enjoy myself on stage, like I used to. If I win a No.1 trophy at a music chart show, I'll have a guerrilla concert wearing Hanbok (Korean traditional clothes) because "Ninano" contains Korean sentiments.
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
According to the prosecution, a young k-pop female star G.NA has been called in to investigate on suspicion of having sex with a man of wealth in return for receiving about 30,000 USD in 2016. Of course, such allegations have yet to be confirmed, but it certainly was a shocking news for k-pop fans, while Cube Entertainment terminated its contract with G.NA due to the scandal even though the agency officially announced that the contract has already ended at the end of 2015. I can’t say she is guilty, but it’s true a few of Korean female entertainers prostitute themselves. They sometimes even go abroad and have sex with rich men to avoid legal punishment in Korea. You might say that you don't understand why some of Korean entertainers who seem to earn a lot of money prostitute themselves. Well, here are some reasons for it. First, everyone wants easy money. No one would say no to easy and big money, right? When I asked people in the Korean entertainment world about Korean ente
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

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
