On June 22, MAMAMOO made a comeback with its new album "Purple". In a word, it's awesome. Purple is an unordinary color and is a color which is not for everyone, but the color represents MAMAMOO's distinct character. The girl group members, who have shown their pinky charm through their previous hit "Um Oh Ah Yeh" show more various colors this time.
MAMAMOO's title track "Yes I am" reached the top of a variety of online music charts, while it's notable that the girl group beat various popular k-pop stars such as G-Dragon, BLACKPINK and Bolbbalgan. MAMAMOO was not a top class idol group just a year ago, but the team has been in a strong uptrend, and yeah, they did it.
Through "Yes I am", a song which has catchy melody, MAMAMOO gives off its great energy. And the girl group shows very impressive energetic live performance too, while it's notable the song has lyrics that talk about the members. That's why many people can sympathize with the song. And "AZE Gag" is a very impressive song too. The song is comic, catchy and cheerful, while the MAMAMOO members show off their freewheeling charm through the song.
You might not realize MAMAMOO's popularity because the girl group could seem not to have as many loyal fans as the other popular young and lovely girl groups. However, actually, the girl group is now enjoying huge popularity among men and women of all ages. The evidence of MAMAMOO's popularity? A total of 940,000 people listened to "Yes I am" on Melon for the first 24 hours after the release of the song, while it's a new record for a girl group. MAMAMOO beat Wonder Girls' previous record of 900,000.
Basically, MAMAMOO could become one of the most popular k-pop girl groups because the girl group is totally different from the other girl groups. Most of k-pop girl groups just try to look pretty and lovely on the stage. However, MAMAMOO doesn't. Instead, the 4 members show how well they can sing and dance. They're not the prettiest idols, but they have outstanding singing ability, and they certainly know how to liven up the atmosphere. That's why MAMAMOO is the most sought-after girl group in the university festival season in Korea. Furthermore, as the members have a nice personality and are always nice to their fans, they have few anti fans.
But that's not all. MAMAMOO has a great helper, Kim Do Hoon. You might not have heard of the name, but he is a very famous music producer. He is the CEO of MAMAMOO's agency, and yeah, he's like Park Jin Young of JYP Entertainment. Reason why he is not so famous among global k-pop fans is because he's never produced an idol group before MAMAMOO debuted in 2014. However, he is a very competent music producer, and he is the one who discovered the 4 talented MAMAMOO members, trained them and built up the girl group's distinct character. And the MAMAMOO members also take part in writing their songs, but basically, Kim Do Hoon writes all the songs. Of course, "Yes I am" is written by him too.
People in the k-pop industry are now saying the MAMAMOO era has come. And they also say the era will continue for a long time for some reasons. First, the MAMAMOO members have great singing ability. Great singers can be loved by many people in any age. Second, MAMAMOO is not a girl group who just highlights its cute and lovely charm, which means the members will be able to be active as popular singers even after they became old. Third, SISTAR has disbanded, and there is no k-pop girl group who has a similar concept with MAMAMOO. You know, both SISTAR and MAMAMOO are girl groups who highlight their singing abilities rather than act cute on the stage, and it seems like there is no strong competitor who can stop MAMAMOO.

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
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
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
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
