Apink - Five




Apink - Five





Apink released their 6th album <Up> with 'Five', the title song of the album.
Their current album was <Pink revolution> the 3rd full album
which came out September, 2016.


Nine month seems to be a little long, 
when K-pop girl groups usually set their comeback schedule to be in 6 months term.
However, They released special album <Dear> in December 2016
and show single cut 'Always' in April 2017
, that Apink actually keep working hard since last year.
As a fan of them, I am concerned for their health.
they deserve to have enough vacation and rests.





But I think Apink's quick comeback and lots of appearance in TV
are result from their declining music chart result of current songs.
It is impossible not to admit that Apink's big time is 
when they showed 3 successive hit songs <No No No>, <Mr. chu>, <Love>
Moreover, Apink has their own way of character(Purity, Girlish)
 comparing many sexy concept K-pop girl groups who debuted same time



However, Music market changed quickly
Purity&Girlish concept dominates the girl group(Twice, G-friend)
who share the fan target of Apink.
What is worse, Apink have long break(14 months) after 'Remember'





Therfore, It may be hard for them to find their own position in K-pop girl group.
But, 'Five' make me feel what's Apink Song is.
In Lyrics, Comforting the people and cheering them with message
 resembles Apink first hit song 'No No No'
which brought Apink where are
Finally Apink found their song that I guess their position still cannot be defeated.






Unfortunately, before their come back, there is bad news.
The man in his 30s threaten to kill the Apink
The police picked up the pieces but few days later
He threaten to bomb the Apink Showcase again.
I hope Apink didn't hurt by the incident.
They should know that there are a way more people who support Apink!





Five

G-Dragon - Untitled,2014

 
 

 
 
 

G-Dragon - Untitled, 2014

 
 
 
 
 
 
GD, The leader of YG boy group Big-Bang come back with new song
called  <Untitled, 2014>
It has been 6 months from Bigbang's 3rd full album <MADE>
and 4 years after his solo second album <Coup Detat>!
 
 
 
In Korea, GD thought to be one of the greatest artists
who make creative and sensational songs.
So, like other Bigbang songs, His solo songs ranked 1st on all the online music charts in Korea 
 It is very hard to succeed in solo to K-pop which is pivot on group musics
However, Bigbang, above all GD prove his power with well-made songs.
 
 
 
 
 
Before the release day, GD announce that title will be 'Bullshit'
which is real tough hip-hop song that GD hasn't tried yet.
However, the same group member TOP is revealed to smoke marijuana with girl-group trainee
It's exposed during the time TOP is in military service
so he was deprived of the position of serviceperson (he has to restart again)
and in the investigation.


So, the title is changed to avoid controversy that can affect GD comeback.
He was once suspect as smoking marijuana. too.
 However, bad luck often brings good luck, GD songs got more attention from the public
that he still keep his influence in music chart


 
 
I really love GD's ballad style songs like
'Black' in <Coup Detat>
'Missing you', 'That XX' in <One of a Kind>
'A boy' in <Heartbreaker>
I think it is because GD has good voice in singing just like rapping.
Also It's really surprise he reall good at producing both dance and ballad music.
 
 
 
One of his fans, I am very glad to listen to his songs again.
It seems like to be difficult time for Bigbang members to solve controversy.
But as Top Boy group who represent Korea for more than 10 years
I hope they get over this with payment of their sins
and comeback to us again! 
 
 
 

 
 
 
Interestingly, this album sales as a form of USB.
Someone insist It can not be accepted as Album so it has to be excluded from sales counting
But, GD counter it music and album can not be limited by its form and
It can be New version of album style in future.
 
 
 
Still many music critics disapprove it, but I have same thought with him.
So I really think highly of his creativity and artistic talent.
 

 
 

G-Dragon - Untitled, 2014

 
Lyrics
 
 
I know that It's difficult
 and hard to come back to me
I know that You no longer want to get hurt
and you're afraid

Even the day you left
 I made you cry with harsh words
And I turned my back on you regretting it
 
If I can only once see you
It's okay evenif I lose everything of mine
I want to see you in my dreams at least and love again
the two of us, like this
 
It may be easier to die
than to be forgiven by you

I sing this song,
but I don't know if my true intentions will reach you
 
'Want you to be happy'
I can't even lie such a common thing
And I only pray that you may come back, I'm sorry
 
If I can only once see you
It's okay evenif I lose everything of mine
I want to see you in my dreams at least and love again
the two of us, like this
 
Now I can't believe your heart
that says this is the last time, the end
I can't let go cuz you never know
There won't be another love
Like yours to me, Iike mine to you
Nobody knows
we always know
 
If I can only once see you
It's okay evenif I lose everything of mine
I want to see you in my dreams at least and love again
 
If  I can forget it all with this time passes
Even the memories, happy ones too
No, I want to meet you and love you even I born again
Just like we did before

Mamamoo-Yes I am



Mamamoo - Yes I am







Mamamoo come back with new 5th mini album <Purple>
They add cool unique blue color to the 
funky pink style previous music <Um oh ah Yeh> 
<Yes I am> they are little pretentious but it's too cute to hate them.



They have nick name 'Trust to listen'
They have strong point of powerful vocal skills 
It's like they are more close to great singer than just K-pop girl group
This song is different from retro style music their current music style
you can also feel the harmony of them too.





They put their name on the 1st in melon music chart right after release.
It's quite meaningful because that day Blackpink the big time rookie comeback too.
Also, previous song <Decalcomanie> is below the level of expectations.



In <Decalcomanie> they focus on showing vocal skills,
making advatage of their strength
However, they're real charming point is bouncy, upbeat music
 with great manner on the stage
So, this time they really find their own style music.



I really enjoyed Music video
Each of Mamamoo members have their own character
Fans called them 'Beagly' which is come from Beagle dog.
They are really active and cheerful.


Hwa Sa is catching eyes with her long hair
Fans love her this styling
I think Hwa Sa also fit to this music most.
She has very strong confidence & Girl crush style.






It's like this time summer is going to be Mamamoo's time
 Someone say Mamamoo is handed baton of 'Summer queen' Sistar
Two group have many common points.
Powerful vocal skills, Upbeat songs, Stylish charcter


However, Mamamoo has their own style
which represents in this album <Purple>
So, I think Mamamoo trend is going to keep continued.




Mamamoo - Yes I am

BLACK PINK - As if it's your last


 

Black Pink





  

[Black Pink New release Music Video - As if  it's your last]



YG Hot girl group Black Pink come back to the stage
with new song <As if it's your last>
They say it's the upbeat song that best fits the hot summer



Comparing their latest songs  <Playing with fire>, <Stay>
which represent the color 'Black',
Things song is close to 'Stylish pink'



On the day of comeback they break the record of 
 'Fastest 10 million view on youtube' in 23 hours
(Before them is Twice)
and rank first in ITunes chart in 7 countries including Hong-Kong, Phillipines.






In Korea they are unique groups
who have real good based in girls' hip-hop and singing
And concept of Tough girl is hard to find among Korea girl groups.
(Usually they are cute and pure)



So, they  really got fame quickly since they have made debut.
Only in 7 days, they got first prize in TV music show with <Whistle>
Despite, they made successful begining they minimize the appearance in TV
that fans are limited to 10s, 20s
While Twice, G-friend who made debut at the same time
created the syndrome to all generations






Their Second mini album packed with <Playing with fire>, <Stay>
is also get good response to the public
but, it's not what is like the First album <BoomBahYah>, <Whistle>
Experienced the limit, they are in variety programs & musicshow more



As a fan of BlackPink, It's really happy to see them more.
I think they got all talent to be K-pop idol
Singing, Raping, Dancing, Beauty, Figure...
What's more is they are also real cute and funny in variety programs!







Their new single <As if it's your last>
got good rate overall in review.
Some people says it's reminding 2NE1 songs which was in same company
However, Other says since they are broke up
It's really welcome to listen to Girl crush song of Black pink.
Also, they put cute style of their own.



Blackpink looks like they enjoyed music more than before in music viedo.
I also feel this song more fit to them.
They are going to make this song playing all over the streets in Korea.






<As if it's your last>
