But there are conditions, Han Ji-eun must be willing to work as a maid - cleaning and cooking - because Ji-eun also had to pay his debt to Yeong-jae who lent time in Shanghai.

T-ara & Davichi – “We Were in Love”

artistkorean@gmail.com (TopArtistKorean) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 08:30:00 +0700

T-ara & Davichi – “We Were in Love” - To put it mildly, it has truly been an amazing year for Core Contents Media: their showcase girl group,T-ara, has had what is unquestionably the best year in their history. With a string of hits starting with“Roly-Poly” this summer and following up with ”Cry Cry“, T-ara has brought a satisfyingly fresh sound to the menagerie of K-Pop hits this year.

That wasn’t all – the agency’s resident vocal group, Davichi, also struck gold with “Don’t Say Goodbye“, promptly erasing fears that CCM would be left without a strong voice-based group after the disbandment of SeeYa which had struggled under a tumultuous history. And Coed School‘s sub-unit,5dolls, managed to bring some shade of success to what was (rightfully) classified as a ‘flop’ debut in 2010.

As if CCM were seeking to crown their achievements with yet another jewel on their tiara (pun not intended), they released one final swan song for 2011: a joint project between T-ara and Davichi called “We Were in Love“.

If Super Junior is known for their ‘SJ-funky’ style, and 2NE1 has claimed powerful hip-hop as their own, CCM takes it a step further – they’ve developed their own style of ballads, which we’ll call for the sake of argument ‘CCM ballads’.

CCM ballad styles are distinctly recognizable for their unique traits – a dependence on heavy strings, coupled with moody piano, all layered behind male or female vocals that focus intensely on vibrato. The melody usually is trot-inspired, with its sweeping highs and lows – sprinkled in between with some chances for the singers to show off their high notes (Davichi’s “Time, Please Stop” comes to mind). CCM ballads (examples include SeeYa’s “The Last” and T-ara’s “Good Person“) are soulful, usually dark, and often are written in a minor key. This differentiates them from the similarly-styled ‘SM ballads’, which are generally more cheerful and written in major.

The latest entry to the long list of CCM ballads, “We Were in Love” represents, perhaps, the climax of CCM’s unique style, where everything comes together in a way that mimics a well-written recipe brought to life by a skillful chef – all of the ingredients are stirred perfectly, with no one segment or personality outweighing the other. Everything is in perfect composition, every note, crescendo, and diminuendo working in harmony to create what could easily be termed the showpiece of CCM’s ballad style.

If CCM’s previous efforts sometimes faltered, whether because of the vocals or the instrumental, “We Were in Love” bridges those gaps nicely. If in Davichi’s “Time, Please Stop“, the chorus was a bit awkwardly placed, seemingly out of its element in the comparatively quiet track, that has been remedied with “We Were in Love” and its use of a similar instrumental and volume throughout. If Coed School’s “I Loved You a Thousand Times” was hampered by sub-par male vocals, “We Were in Love” brings out the best. T-ara’s Soyeon is a recognized vocal powerhouse, and Davichi’s Haeri andMinkyung need no further explanation. Jiyeon and Hyomin also pull their weight – Jiyeon’s voice has always been somewhat underrated, shackled by T-ara and their dependence on “hook songs”, but she gives a strong performance here. Hyomin’s voice, on the other hand, is a bit drowned out between the belting vocals of Haeri and Soyeon. Hwayoung makes a quick appearance as well.

Speaking of Hwayoung, it’s impressive to see how much she’s improved within the group – her rapping, while still somewhat unremarkable, has noticeably improved from her “Yayaya” days. Thanks to T-ara and their habit of unequal line distribution, Hwayoung has had barely a chance to shine, but because of “We Were in Love”, the public is able to see more of her talent, and it’s worth terming this song a success if only for that welcomed role alone.

Key Kim Kibum SHINee Vocalist Profile

artistkorean@gmail.com (TopArtistKorean) — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 08:30:00 +0700

Key Kim Kibum SHINee Vocalist Profile.

Key or Kim Kibum is a vocalist and one of the rappers from g was a gifted varsity water-skier at Dae Gu Young Shin Middle School. He was discovered at the “2005 S.M. National Tour Audition Casting”. Before debuting with Shinee, Key appeared in Super Junior’s Wonder Boy MV as an extra dancer. Key was featured in label-mate Xiah’s solo “Xiahtic".

Kim Kibum's stage name is Key because he likes to solve things.

Don't be confuse between SHINee's Kim Kibum and Kim Kibum from Super Junior.

SHINee’s Key writes a Love Letter for IU on Music Bank

Aside from the highly-anticipated debut stages of F.Cuz and Hyuna, there was another special surprise for the viewers on MBC Music Bank tonight. Key of SHINee and IU joined together in a duet to perform a classic MC Mong song, Love Letter For You.

As Key spitted the rhymes, he handed single-wrapped roses to IU, whose vocal performance hardly strayed from that of the song’s original singer. The two demonstrated a good chemistry onstage and seemed to enjoy themselves throughout.

Aside from her singing abilities, IU is quite a brave soul. Despite the disapproving response she received from Yoseob fangirls who raided Cyworld and eventually shut it down after her collaboration with the BEAST blondie, IU still pulled through the special stage with Key. She may sing about marshmallows, but her heart sure isn’t soft as one. Perhaps SHINee fangirls will have been more understanding and just enjoyed the duo’s performance.

20 facts about KEY in COOL轻音乐 magazine - September Issue

1. Will go to the CD shop and ask, "Where are the SHINee CDs? Are they selling well?" Cares about his welfare in outlook in life.

2. "Right from when we are trainees till now, the one who sings really well, dances superbly, gets angry only when it is an occasion to be angry about, makes people feel that "this guy is really amazing!", that person is Key." (JONGHYUN)

3. Has a love-hate relationship with horror movies and horror stories, he yearns for them but he is also scared of them, he likes them but he also dislikes them. He lost his composure/image in the cinema many times because of that, he is only able to rent horror movies/dramas to watch at home to continue scaring himself.

4. "I don't want a fantasy romance like those in the movies, I look towards a realistic and truthful relationship." Honest, straighforward and open minded girls are OK, but girls who are soft on the outside but really fierce on the insides are a NO. Must have an opinion, not be too girly, and must like to freely express what she likes.

5. In terms of dressing up as girls, Taemin is the most suitable, but the prettiest is still the one who is looking into the mirror (ie. Key), if he really wants to do it, even a true woman will not be able to match up to him. (Proudly)

6. Is confident that he can be a gourmet chef, nobody can escape his dumplings trap.

7. "To be an idol, it's not enough to just put in effort in the front appearance, your back appearance is important too."

8. Good at saying honeyed words, but hearing lines like "Are you hurt? I am hurting too." makes him burst out in laughter.

9. "If I were to become Yunhanam's director, the viewing rates ought to be able to rise." (smug)

10. His personal talent is imitating a robotic character from a cartoon show, the classic line being "Woah! Money! With money anything can be done!!"

11. Good at preparing, good at analyzing, belongs to the kind who is able to work out a plan from scratch with just a single detail.

12. "You cannot avoid me, you must look at me in the eyes."

13. It's his nature to take care of people? At first he was just Taemin's umma, after that his nagging extends to include all of the members, and now it is becoming that he nags at whoever he sees.

14. Still nagging. Because he has been too naggy, Taemin really wants to change his umma now...

15. Become a girl? Then he would date all the other members once and see how it is. Does not know how it is like when they are in front of a girl, he is really curious about it.

16. "The person who is able to meet an ET who has come to earth and not feel scared but instead in able to converse naturally with it is Key...Even if he is left on an abadoned island, he will still be able to find a way to survive." (JONGHYUN)

17. As long as he is being sincerely asked to do something, he will do it no matter how unwilling he is, even if he does not like to do it.

18. Sentimental and sensitive, even if it just a piece of paper from someone who he cares about, he will take really good care of it.

19. The group's No.1 in fashion. Red, white, blue, it is normal for him to carry off these colours which are easy to carry off, but for colours like pink and grass green which are more difficult to pull off, he is still able to do it.

20. "I hope that this album can receive a lot of love from everyone, and, if only our friends all know SHINee's songs, they only know 'Noona is so pretty'

On August 8, 2005 Lee Hyori co-hosted the annual Korean Music Festival for the second year running, to wide acclaim once again.

While the debut solo album of her teammate Oak Joo-hyun has been so well received, it is high time Lee Hyo-lee (hyori), who is the leader of the Korean female quartet Fin.K.L. (Fine Killing Liberty), bombarded the Korean music industry with her premier work "Lee Hyori Vol.1"!

August in 2003 seems to a year full of new surprises for Lee Hyori (a.k.a Chori). It is the month not only for her solo album to be released but also for Lee Hyori's debut movie "Sam Soo Sang's Love Story" to begin shooting in which she plays YooNi, an innocent and beautiful art student. As the first project to be presented between her two debuts, this very first album abounds in musical genres of different sorts including hip-hop, funky, dance, ballad, trendy R & B, trance and many more. Together with her own contribution, Hyo-lee this time is joined by Ahn Jung-hoon, the former Position member, as the producer, Cho Kyu-man, Kim Do-hyun, Yun Il-sang, Lee Hyun-do and a lot more top elite in the local industry.

This lady representing the color of red in Fin.K.L. is not going to spare her red hot heat in the summer of 2003 and all that begins with her title track "10 Minutes", a mid-tempo hip-hop tune with overwhelming background music and groovy rhythm that keeps your body moving along.
