Chapter 168: It's Really Awesome
A few days later, August 3rd.
On this day, there were two big movements in the Korean music scene.
One is that on this day, S.'s carefully planned nine-member girl group Girls' Generation released their debut single "The World Reunion Again".
The other is that Kang Meteor released his first Korean official album "The Legend of Dubi".
"The Legend of Dubi" contains a total of twelve songs, namely:
"I Miss You So Much"
Don't Talk
"Unparalleled Beauty"
"Missing"
"Days of Missing You"
"Talking to Father"
Harlequin
1 Minute 1 Second
"Love is So Simple"
《ana》
"Doodle Dob"
"No More Contact"
It includes four choral songs, namely "Harlequin" sung by Kang Meteor Sung and Kwon Ji Ryong, "1 Minute and 1 Second" sung by Kang Ryungung and Ha Ji Won, "Love Is So Simple" sung by Kang Ryungung and Baek Ji Young, and "Ana" sung by Kang Meteor Sung sung with him.
From the twelve songs, Jiang Liuxing chose three as the title songs of the three waves, among them, the first title song is "Dubi Dubi", the second title song is "ANA", and the third title song is "Suddenly I miss you".
The twelve songs are all good songs in Jiang Liuxing's personal opinion, and they are all like his children, so when choosing the title song, he felt very embarrassed, and finally confirmed the three waves of title songs according to the artistic level of the songs, market trends, etc.
An album contains twelve songs, and in today's South Korea, even some veteran singers will not do this, because it is often thankless, and it is really difficult to make money on albums now, and if you release more songs, you will lose money.
In this regard, ON Entertainment gave Jiang Liuxing's explanation when it officially released "The Legend of Dubi".
There are three reasons for this.
First, Jiang Liuxing has written a lot of songs personally, and he cherishes this opportunity and hopes to have more songs.
Second, Jiang Liuxing wants to get those who buy a record or pay to download a dǐngdiǎn novel, .2£3.o∞s_(); The people of the album felt that it was worth it.
Third, Jiang Liuxing is eager for more people to listen to and share more of his music.
The three reasons on the surface actually hide three deep meanings.
The first reason implies that Jiang Liuxing is very confident in his musical talent.
The second reason implies that Jiang Liuxing values fans and listeners very much, and values those who are willing to spend money to buy or download albums.
The third reason implies that Jiang Liuxing wants to use music to speak, and good music is a real ability.
……
This morning, Jiang Liuxing received a lot of phone calls, and the text messages received more, most of which were congratulating him on the release of a regular album, and some were more special.
Girls' Generation Captain Taeyeon sent a text message to Kang Meteor: "Meteor Oba, you ...... Did you do it on purpose? ”
Yuna, a member of Girls' Generation, also sent a text message to Jiang Meteor: "Meteor...... Oba, did you do it on purpose? ”
RSA directly called Jiang Liuxing and asked, "Did you do it on purpose?" Deliberately targeting Girls' Generation? ”
When Yuna's trailer was released before, Kang Meteor released her first piano composition album "Hear the Sound of the Night".
When Taeyeon's trailer was released before, Kang Meteor released his first single album "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky".
And this time, Girls' Generation released its debut single, and Kang Meteor Star actually released the first Korean regular album.
This made the members of Girls' Generation more and more suspicious that Jiang Liuxing was deliberately targeted, so that Taeyeon, who had defended Jiang Liuxing before, was a little shaken psychologically, and even Yuna couldn't help but wonder if Jiang Liuxing was deliberately breaking up with him before "revenge" her.
RSA didn't complain, she just thought it was funny.
In response to Taeyeon, Yoona, and RSA's questions, Kang Ryung-sung deliberately gave three different answers.
Kang Meteor Sung replied to Taeyeon with a text message: "Maybe it's a coincidence. ”
Jiang Liuxing's text message to Yuna replied: "Hmm. ”
Jiang Liuxing's reply to RSA on the phone was: "Why do you want to sue you. ”
The real answer is that the first two "targeting" were really just coincidences, but this time it was specially arranged by Jiang Liuxing, who knew that Girls' Generation would release his debut single on this day, so he deliberately scheduled the release of the first official album on this day.
However, Jiang Liuxing really didn't want to target Girls' Generation, he just had a wonderful psychology, he felt that he had a lot of fate with the girl group of Girls' Generation, Yuna was his ex-girlfriend, and later he had in-depth contact with Taeyeon, Jiang Liuxing subconsciously wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to create more fate.
Fortunately, a day later, Girls' Generation's debut single was not too affected by Jiang Liuxing's regular album, and as expected, it attracted a lot of media attention and was loved by many people.
It's just that, compared to Jiang Meteor, the momentum caused by Girlhood is really much worse.
A day has passed, the official album "The Legend of Dubi" has swept the major music source websites in South Korea, and the twelve songs in the album are like twelve fighters parachuted in, grabbing a place on the charts of major music source websites.
The best results are still on the main battlefield on the website, and the twelve songs in the album all broke into the top 30, of which the top 10 occupied five positions.
Different music source websites have different songs that have achieved good rankings, but for now, the best result is "Dubi Dubi", because this song has been released and launched as the first title song, and because this song is really easy to pop.
A day passed, except for two audio source websites, one of the other music source website rankings was dominated by "Dubi Dubi".
With very simple but innocent lyrics, very cheerful and avant-garde tunes, "Doot Doo Doo" is a dynamic and avant-garde electronic dance music, which has been popular with many media and the public just one day after its release.
As Kang Meteor expected, this song is really in line with the current mainstream trend in the Korean music scene, and it is easy to be popular and popular.
On this day, when "The Legend of Dubi" was first released, the momentum caused on the Internet was not very large, but when a day passed, with the spread of word-of-mouth and the publicity of On, Jiang Liuxing and the album "The Legend of Dubi" have become the focus of the media and the public.
That night, Jiang Liuxing grabbed two important positions in the hot search on the NAR website.
The first hot search is: Jiang Meteor - new album.
The four hot searches are: Dubi Legend.
Girls' Generation was only on the hot search in the morning, and it was hovering between eight, nine, and ten.
The market for the Korean music scene is not big, and the cake is so big, and when more people pay attention to Kang Meteor and his new album, it will inevitably steal some people who would have paid attention to Girls' Generation and their debut singles.
Therefore, even if Girls' Generation's debut single was not influenced too much by Jiang Liuxing's regular album, it has unsurprisingly attracted a lot of attention from the media and has been loved by many people, but it is inevitable that it will still have some influence.
On this day, the nine members of Girls' Generation have been paying attention to the movements on the Internet and the situation in the music world, and when they saw Jiang Liuxing and his new album being so rapid and hot, they all felt envy and jealousy of Jiang Liuxing, and some members even had some hatred, and even Xu Xian, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, was dissatisfied with Jiang Liuxing in his heart.
However, they have to admit that Jiang Liuxing's official album this time, the songs in the album, are really good!
ps: Of the twelve songs in "The Legend of Dubi", eleven of them have appeared in the previous article, and one song has not appeared, that is, "No More Contact", "No More Contact" in Summer A, I recommend listening to it. (To be continued.) )
