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.

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...

As a k-pop journalist, I’ve been trying to find a way of deciding k-pop idol groups’ rankings more objectively. I’ve asked several people in the k-pop industry for the objective standard to decide the rankings, and some of them gave me a hint about it. So, in early 2017, I’ve collected data on k-pop idol groups’ activities to determine their rankings, and what I basically wanted to do was to measure k-pop idol groups' popularity and influence in the k-pop world numerically, just like the Korean Business Research Institute did. Some people might think it’s just something for people to gossip about, but it’s not. Actually, idol groups and their agencies really care about k-pop idol group ranking, and there is a good reason for it. Performing at various mini concerts is the main source of income of most of k-pop idol groups. And if an idol group has a very high public recognition, in other words, if the group is ranked high on the k-pop idol group ranking, the group can get paid ...

When he writes songs, he hears a variety of opinions from BIGBANG members, and he shares his idea with Teddy, a famous music producer of YG Entertainment to make better music. But you can say G-Dragon plays the largest role in writing BIGBANG’s songs because he usually creates main melodies of the songs. And he plays a huge role in BIGBANG’s concerts too. He is such an experienced performer so that he knows well about all the things regar...
