0899 went smoothly enough to make a somewhat hasty return
On the second day of January, there were no formal commercial activities for the whole group, and even if there were, Aura was stopped, and finally began to prepare for their third album, which is also the first official album. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
And this news, before JHL sent it here, the entire entertainment industry that has been spread basically knows about it.
Just kidding, how could it not be known.
Just looking at a group of girls who have started to buy real estate in various parts of Seoul and are known for their money in the entertainment industry, but for the sake of the integrity of their respective teams, they have all moved back to the dormitories in the JHL company building, and those fans can already guess the approximate idea.
At the commercial event on January 2, Apink only had six people in attendance, and lead singer Jung Eun-ji did not appear on the scene, which almost immediately confirmed this inference.
And this inference lasted less than a week before it became a reality.
In SBS's popular music program on January 6th, JHL announced the return of its girl group Aura through the program, and will perform the first stage of Aura's return next Sunday, that is, on the 13th. The official album, including the download of the audio source, will officially start at 0:00 on the 14th.
The speed surprised almost everyone.
There are even many people who say that Li Junhan is completely messing around.
How can it be so fast?
And after the short ten-second comeback teaser of the popular ballad, JHL did not release any specific news about Aura's return. It's just a mixed clip of a few girls' promotional photos, and the accompanying music is not their new song.
You can't even figure out if they're trying to keep it a secret, or if it's because they're just not ready......
Of course, this external scepticism is not the same as the atmosphere inside JHL.
The dance studio at JHL is much more lively than the outside.
"Teacher! The nine of us are unanimously and resolutely opposed to using this song as the title song! ”
Park Cao'e said to Li Junhan with a straight face.
Today is January 10th. There are only three days left before Aura makes her first appearance on the stage of their comeback.
In the dance practice room, Li Junhan was looking at the nine girls with angry faces in front of him.
"It's all said, your songs are not suitable for the main song, otherwise it will be two or three people together, and there are even solo singers...... What else do you want? Li Junhan is still trying to communicate.
This has been the norm for the past two days.
Since the recording of the second day, this matter has been repeatedly nagged by several girls. After the recording of the first two days was completed, the choreography and stage design officially began, and the opposition became particularly violent.
Although when they were working, they all inherited the fine tradition of Li Junhan's "inheritance" to them to finish the work first and then ask why, but after the recording was really finished and the stage practice was basically OK, the opinions finally exploded.
On the ninth, Park Cho-e and Kim Jin-hee privately found Lee Jun-han and asked him to change his plan, and today, there are already nine people who have the same hatred.
Li Junhan can also understand why, the song he prepared this time is indeed on many levels...... Some are too non-mainstream.
But he really wanted to see if there was a possibility that such a song would become popular.
I'm afraid there is no better experimental field than Aura.
And probably this group of girls figured out that Li Junhan might want to use them for experiments, and felt guilty, so in the part where Li Junhan "asked" them to do it, each of them came up with a song, and this group of girls obviously had a bit of a meaning of using chicken feathers as arrows.
Had a great time.
For example, Xu Shuzhi took a song he wrote and found Zheng Endi, Zheng Youzhi, and Jin Rongxian, who had also just been added, to sing together.
Li Junhan agreed.
When Li Junhan recorded that song, even Li Junhan himself was suppressed.
It's not a great song, but the whole song has a terrible high vocal range.
To put it simply, Xu Shuzhi sings in the bass range in this song, using her original way of singing alto......
Li Junhan knows that he will definitely not be able to sing this kind of song, and he will definitely not be able to write it.
But it should still be a good choice to put it on the album as a show-off song, and it should be used by those talent singers in the talent competition in the future.
For another example, An Xiyan made a song by herself and asked her to sing it.
The whole song has a strong folk singing style, with a mid-bass range, which is different from the way she sings in the group.
Li Junhan also agreed. He also knew that this girl was actually demonstrating to himself.
It's just, not to mention that in Aura, you just went to EXID and couldn't sing this kind of song?
So, let's piggyback on Aura's album!
There are many similarities, An Xiaozhen found Xu Shuzhi to give him a pure Hiphop, and Zheng Eundi took an unpublished song that Li Junhan gave her a long time ago, insisting that he wrote it himself, and asked Li Junhan to record it for her......
Li Junhan did so.
Because they are all songs written by themselves, most of them don't need to prepare any stage, so the preparation progress of the album can be so fast.
Originally, Li Junhan thought that I was so obedient to you, can't I just follow my intention to play this song?
It doesn't seem to work.
"Teacher, this song really doesn't work." An Xiyan, who was next to her, also had a deathly expression, "It's too stupid...... We're going back to our respective groups, and this song will make them laugh at me for the rest of my life......"
“…… So what are you going to do? ”
"Teacher, can't you sing the song you sang when you recorded it for us that day?" Luo Hailing said.
Li Junhan was stunned.
Laughed.
"Yikes! Are you eyeing that one? ”
"When we went back and talked together, we thought it was a good song." Pu Cao'e gently tapped Xiao Xian's head, and then said.
Before the conditions were negotiated, Luo Hailing, who exposed his hole cards, was dragged behind by An Xiyan.
"That song is a male song." Li Junhan thought for a while, "Whether in terms of lyrics or other aspects. And the way of vocalization is biased towards the soprano falsetto singing of British pop bands...... You can't sing...... Well, maybe Hyo-rin could? ”
"Teacher, it's good if you follow us on stage!"
“…… And then I sing, you dance next to you? Is it you coming back or am I returning? Li Junhan had a black line on his head.
"Yikes! Teacher, don't worry so much about us, okay! You haven't been doing much lately anyway, have you? doesn't film, and doesn't record variety shows. "Park Cao'e began to play tricks.
“…… Cao'e, where did you learn this? You weren't like this before......" Li Junhan shuddered.
"You learn by looking at it, right, Hailing!" Pu Cao'e handed a word to the busy.
"Yes, teacher......" The full-time seller woke up from the state of reflection behind.
Li Junhan was so frightened that he ran out.
In the end, Li Junhan did not agree to the plan to change the title song of this group of girls, originally, this is their album, what kind of fun do you have to make yourself!
It's just that, even then, he was not able to avoid signing an armistice.
Otherwise, this group of girls even threatened to refuse to perform on stage......
They can't do this kind of thing, but it shows a little bit of determination.
As a result, the album of ten songs, which was originally prepared, became eleven......
I have to say, thanks to LOEN!
As the nominal parent company of JHL, the "grateful heart" shown by Kim Jin-hee in the addition of Fiestar made LOEN take extra care of JHL, a somewhat unsuccessful child.
On the 12th, Li Junhan finally finished recording all the final songs and submitted them to LOEN's record production and distribution department, and this album will be officially released on the 14th......
And on the twelfth day, the whole Aura seemed to be dismantled, and took the photographer to various places to take cover and album promotional photos.
On the thirteenth, it will officially return.
I didn't even shoot the MV.
Yes.
Li Junhan originally came to shoot a MV for their title song, but was collectively rejected by this group of girls.
"What kind of MV is made for such a stupid song!"
But in the end, although Li Junhan spoils them, he is still a producer. I forced a few girls to shoot a "practice room version of the MV" in JHL's dance practice studio late at night on the 12th, so that the company could upload it to the video site and pretend to be the MV when the music source was released.
Then, perhaps the most bizarre existence in the Korean girl group, came to SBS TV at nine o'clock in the morning on the 13th.
"Jun Han Xi!"
"Oh! PDnim! Hello! Lee Jun-han smiled and greeted the PD of the popular ballad.
"I heard there's your special stage today?" PD smiled and patted Li Junhan on the shoulder.
“…… Yes. Li Junhan had a black line in his head.
"Come on! We're looking forward to it! PD saw Li Junhan's expression and was even happier. Need a dress rehearsal? You this? ”
"Probably...... It's still needed, after all, the stage was just choreographed yesterday. Li Junhan nodded.
“…… Yesterday ......" PD's face, which was still smiling, instantly froze.
"No way, these girls said that if I don't come to accompany them, they will refuse to sing." Li Junhan spread his hands, "one by one, his wings were stiff and ......"
"OPPA, it's immoral to say bad things about people behind your back!"
At this time, Kim Jin-hee, who happened to walk past Li Junhan, spit out.
Li Junhan chose to shut up.
"Your stage...... Is it really okay? PD looked worried.
"Don't worry, if you don't know how to dance, it's just a show, and ...... It should be very topical. Li Junhan patted PD on the shoulder, "My relationship with SBS is good and all Koreans know it, and I will definitely not cheat you." ”
"But the stage ......"
"You'll find out in a moment. Among these two songs, it is still theirs that is more impactful. Li Junhan smiled.
"By the way, I haven't even asked, why are they helmets and knee pads and elbow pads......"
"Oh, styling."
“…… It's the first time I've seen a girl group in this style. ”
"When 2NE1 appeared, did you think so, brother?" Li Junhan smiled and asked, "Do you think Sandra's sky-high braids look like lightning rods?" ”
"......" PD was quiet.
After a while.
"Actually, I still think so."
PD lowered his voice and said beside Li Junhan. (To be continued.) )
