Zico says he's never thought of himself as a genius


Zico is back. On July 12, the rapper held a press conference for his new solo album "Television" in Seoul. Check out what he talked about the album.

Q. Why did you name your new album "Television".
Zico: You know, television televises myself, and people watch me on television. The album contains stories about myself before being televised. That's why I named the album "Television".

 Q. Tell me about your double title tracks, "Artist" and "Anti".
Zico: "Artist" contains a message that we should express ourselves and be the heroes of our lives. I think many people are exhausted these days. I wanted to send a good message to them and cheer them up. That's why I wrote the song when I was in a good mood. And when I wrote "Anti", I myself became am anti fan of Zico. It's all fiction, but I wanted to bring up such a subject. I tried to curse myself, and the interesting thing was that it was so easy for me curse myself.


Q. The album has a song titled "Genius" too. Do you think you are a genius?
Zico: No, I've never thought of myself as a genius. I think I'm just able to expand my small talent. That's what I can do.

Q. What did you care about the most when you worked on the album?
Zico: I always care much about arrangement. This time, I was inspired by songs which have future sounds, and I wanted to harmonize analog and digital sounds.

Q. Block B's U-Kwon made an appearance in the music video of "Artist".
Zico: Well, Block B means a lot to me. We care about and support each other. There is a strong sense of community among us. When I asked U-Kwon to appear in the music video, he readily accepted it.


Q. It's notable that the album also includes a song titled "FANXY CHILD", which is a name of your music crew.
Zico: Yeah, FANXY CHILD is comprised of young artists who were born in 1992 such as Crush, Dean, Penomeco and myself. We're friends, and we also look in the same direction as musicians. I think there will be many things we can do together.

Q. Tell me about your future plan.
Zico: Even though I released my new solo album, there still are so many new songs that are not released yet. Please look forward to my new projects a lot. And through my new album, I want to show you that I'm always trying hard to develop myself.

About MR, AR, LMR and LAR: Do Kpop Idols Really Sing Live?

"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

K-pop Trainee’s Daily Schedule

Image
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.

Image
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
