=============

Before I start, I want to explain that the person I want to praise is not even a singer, and even the music that drove me to know him is not a complete song, the source is just a small piece of audio that circulated on the Internet some time ago.

Speaking of which, people who usually like to swim on the Internet should have guessed what song and who I am talking about, yes - "1 Minute and 1 Second", and its creator and singer Ahn Joon Hyuk......

This music review was published, in fact, I hesitated for a long time, as mentioned above, he is not a singer, and he has not formally produced the song "1 minute and 1 second" to the market, theoretically speaking, only relying on a short piece of audio to evaluate a song, it is easy to be biased, maybe it is not as perfect as I imagined, or more perfect than I imagined. But after thinking about it for a long time, I still sent out the music review, which can be regarded as an encouragement for creative newcomers!

The first thing that came to my mind when I heard "1 Minute 1 Second" was Japanese singer FreeTEMPO and his masterpiece "SKY-HIGH", which was released last year. The style of the two is very similar, the same gentle and peaceful melody, the same integration of AOR and house music, delicate and three-dimensional arrangement, calculated by the time of launch, maybe we can say that "1 minute and 1 second" is suspected of imitation, but if you investigate the deeper level, imprinted the inner of the personal style, it is not difficult to find that there is an essential difference between the two.

If the two songs are compared to oil paintings, "SKY-HIGH" is a modernist dream picture full of colorful colors, full of dreaminess and movement, delicate and perfect, but abstract and detached from reality. Then "1 Minute and 1 Second" should be summarized as realism, the coloring is classical, simple but not rich, and the picture ripples with a touch of sad tranquility. These are two completely different styles, and the reason why the two are compared, in addition to the first impression of similar genres, is also the position of each in different popular schools.

SKY-HIGH is the embodiment of the Shibuya-style fashion trend in JPOP, and it is also a fashion trend that has never been discovered before in KPOP, so let's call it a 'new rap' in Korea.

The arrangement starts with the elegant style of JPOP, but at the same time, it does not abandon the traditional sense of rhythm, and after the music prelude is a soothing and soft piano piece, it completely breaks away from the influence of the Shibuya system and does not continue to deepen, but only uses it as a repetitive tune to increase the lyrical atmosphere, and at the same time, it also adds a lot of KPOP pop elements. There is no lag behind in lyrics and singing, unique, narrative poetry-like rap, showing literary at the same time, but also taking into account the sense of rhythm, as well as a gentle and slightly ethereal female voice. The two forms, soothing and rhythmic, are perfectly combined in this song, without losing their respective characteristics, which no one has been able to do before.

He can be said to be the pioneer of this new genre, and he believes that with his song "1 Minute and 1 Second", the Korean rap music industry will find a way from underground to popular......

…… I can't wait to hear what effect Ahn Jun Hyuk will have if he makes this song in its entirety, and if he can, I hope he can send me a copy when he comes out!

……

This music review of "The Sound of Popular Music" was reprinted by many portals and hung on the front page as soon as it was published.

Just because the critic is Jiang Mingshi, a music critic known as a "poisonous tongue" who has always liked to pick on the younger generation of singers. Not to mention anything else, SĀ· Under the M company, the previous myths, as well as this year's TVXQ, were all sneered at by him, and evaluated as a dance troupe with outstanding appearance, which means that he was too lazy to listen to their songs once he listened to them, and only dance could enter his eyes. …,

No one would have imagined that one day he would praise a newcomer so vigorously, and although there were not many words of praise in the comments, listing that song as a new faction was a great compliment in itself.

Stimulated by this, many netizens who saw the news but had never heard "1 minute and 1 second" couldn't hold back their curiosity and began to board naver to start searching.

The previous hype, although there was a company organization manipulation, but most people only paid attention to the scandal, about the audio of the song "1 minute and 1 second", there will be very few people to search for and listen, otherwise with the popularity of the scandal some time ago, Ahn Junhyuk's fanclub will not only have more than 10,000 people.

This song is the first time it has become a searcher.

In the next few days, it still occupies a position, Koreans especially worship talented people, otherwise writers, painters and other practitioners in the creative field would not have such a high social status, a look at the news that someone has created a new genre of pop music, people immediately flocked to it, or simply curious, or with a critical eye to distinguish between the true and the false, at least for Ahn Junhyuk, he is on fire again.

SĀ· The senior management of Company M, seeing that the peak is turning around, is full of joy, and at the same time, they also immediately contacted more media to increase the hype of this matter.

Now as soon as he appeared on the Internet, the major news and entertainment websites were overwhelmed with words like "Ahn Junhyuk, the pioneer", and some more formal communities that only talked about music began to frequently talk about his songs, and his people, the registered fans of the official website, also began to grow rapidly after a short period of stagnation.

But although the hype is strong, Ahn Jun-hyuk himself does not have much real sense this time, because this time it is mainly concentrated on the Internet, or some music magazines, and there are not many paper media reports, after all, the so-called "pioneer" is the words of Jiang Mingshi's family, and the commented work is only a short piece of audio, before hearing the complete song, the paper media will not participate in this kind of topic, or even if you want to participate, you have to wait for Ahn Jun Hyuk's 1 album to be officially launched.

He has more important things to do.

The day after that comment was issued, the crew took advantage of this trend and announced on the official website that "I'm Sorry, I Love You" will take over "Oh! Victory, Bong Soon-young", which will be broadcast for the first time as a moon-fire drama on Monday, November 8, half a month later.

Due to the publicity some time ago, coupled with the scandal incident of Ahn Junhyuk as the leading actor, the audience who had been waiting for a long time, after getting the exact news, although they were nervous and expectant, the crew was also nervous, and everyone was nervous.

Although everyone has long known the specific broadcast date, but the announcement or not announced, the pressure to be under is completely different, when it is not announced, even if there is any accident, you can also discuss the period internally, but once the premiere date is announced, then it must be done, such a thing as bounce tickets is insulated from the TV series, so anything that may delay the progress at this time will bring a devastating disaster.

As the male number one who has the most scenes and needs to participate in most of the shots, Ahn Junhyuk is naturally under more pressure, the crew can start work on two lines, filming exterior and indoor at the same time, but he has no doppelganger technique, he needs to keep rushing back and forth, in recent days, he has spent most of his time in the car every day, and he can't even go home, so he simply lives in the nanny car.

"Cut!

In the recording studio of the KBS annex, the assistant director who temporarily took over the guide tube on the set, shouted this sentence, Ahn Jun-hyuk immediately dropped his shoulders as soon as he pulled out of the play, walked to the rest area on the side with a tired face, took the hot water handed by Kwon Bo-geun and took a sip, and began to pant heavily. …,

Quan Baogen looked at him with bloodshot eyes, tired and didn't even want to speak, he felt distressed for a while, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only try his best to deal with other chores and not let him worry too much.

After resting for a while and finally recovering some of his spirits, Ahn Jun Hyuk raised his head and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Uncle Baogen, when is the end?"

Quan Baogen looked at his watch and said: "The shooting over there is not going well, I just called to confirm, there are at least more than 2 hours, counting the time to hurry, you can rest for a while, get some sleep, you haven't slept well for several days." ā€

"Okay! Call me when you leave. Ahn Jun-hyuk nodded, lay on the sofa, and after a while, his heavy breathing gradually became even and he fell asleep.

Seeing that he was asleep, Quan Baogen gestured to the staff walking by to him to be careful and not to disturb him, so he stepped aside.

Tired Ahn Jun Hyuk, this sleep is not too sound, dreamed, very strange and strange, dreamed that he seemed to walk into a dream forest, surrounded by the naughty laughter of elves, and then dreamed that there were insects crawling around on his feet, and burrowing into the flesh, but he didn't feel pain, but it was very itchy, and the insects would laugh.

At a certain moment, I suddenly woke up, and I couldn't help but laugh at myself, I actually had such a bizarre dream.

But then he found that his feet were indeed itching, and there were really people laughing around him, as well as a deliberately suppressed whisper......

"Sister Xiuying, don't tease my brother, he looks so tired. ā€

"Who said I was playing tricks on him, Chief Kwon said, let's wake him up. ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Wake up my brother and scratch the soles of his feet?"

"Alas, this is gentleness, gentleness, Xiaoxian, you are still young, you don't understand...... Uh-huh, you have to take your socks off...... Hey, hey, hey!"

The girl shouted a small slogan, as if she wanted to lift his legs and take off his socks, Ahn Joon-hyuk closed his eyes and remained silent, but his legs pressed down hard.

After lifting it for a while, I couldn't lift it, and I heard Xiuying sigh in my ears: "Hiss-such a heavy thigh! Hmph, it's hard for me, Daliyun, on!"

"Ah, sister, what kind of tone do you have, it's like calling a dog!"

"Aha

"Hmph!" Yun'er snorted in her ears, and then she felt that a pair of small hands hugged her calves and began to drag hard.

"Oh oh oh oh, lift up a little, come on, come on!"

Listening to the subtle noise of the girls around him, Ahn Jun-hyuk opened his eyes slightly, and after a moment of hazy light, next to the sofa where he was lying, Xiu-young who was cheering and cheering, Yoon-a who was red-faced and red-eared, Xiaoxian who was looking worriedly, and farther away, covered his mouth, and looked at Yoo-ri, so-yeon, and Taeyeon here with a smile...... The figures of the young girls come into view.
