Chapter Seventy-Six: Nobody

Among the girl groups, the most depressing in the whole 2008 was not Girls' Generation, but browneyedgirls! Girls' Generation is the most wronged girl group, and browneyedgirls is the most depressed girl group!

Debuting in 2006, browneyedgirls is a four-member girl group created by Negawork, a company composed of Korea's best songwriters and songwriters, who spent three years in preparation. At first, it was actually unknown, almost the same as Kara not long ago. But at the beginning of this year, browneyedgirls, who released the album "withL.O.V.E", became well-known and finally began to gather a certain amount of popularity.

However, it wasn't long before the song "onemoretime" by Jewelry, a veteran girl group, came out and became a hit track at the moment, bringing browneyedgirls down alive.

As of September 16, 2008, browneyedgirls, who released the film again, not only tragically bumped into TVXQ, but also was killed out of thin air by Sun Danfei's song "Crazy", and Bigbang's "One Day at a Time" is still in the singing period. All of this makes BrownEyedGirls a little weaker.

All right! TVXQ has a huge fan base after all, Bigbang's "One Day at a Time" is a well-deserved Divine Comedy, and Sun Danfei is a solo who has also stolen a part of the market. Overall. In terms of girl groups, Girls' Generation is temporarily silent. Jewelry is no longer there, but it's still a good environment.

But. Last year's king of the girl group, Wondergirls, broke out again at this time. You know, their last album "Sohot" has just finished playing. In less than two months, they reappeared.

What attracted the most attention from fans, the media, and musicians was that Kim Sung-han, a member of the group JAJ in the United States, was among the participants in this album, and because of this, the media was looking forward to it.

Wondergirls' new song "nobody" soundtrack and MV released, this song composed by Kim Sung-han, lyrics by Park Jin-young, and co-arranged by Kim Sung-han and Park Jin-young is the final wave of the long-awaited retro trilogy. The popularity that has been accumulated for a long time because of the first two really exploded on this day.

Almost a surprise outburst. When everyone didn't react, it was as if they had been flooded. The whole process is only a dry stare, but there is nothing to be done, in vain to help Wondergirls increase the number of clicks!

As Kim Sung-han estimated, the phrase "Iwantnobodynobodybutyou" with that catchy melody swept through like a whirlwind, and it was out of control. After a song shows the sensibility and charm of women, it completely kills the hearts of national men with that simple dance move.

It's like a dance in the chorus part, and the men are really shot, and the men are in love with it. But the girl group artists were killed in seconds, which naturally includes BrownEyedGirls, who have just begun to show signs of development recently.

On September 22, the MV for WonderGirls' "Nobody" was evaluated as "I've never seen such a wonderful ~!" Just two hours after the announcement, he reached the top of the charts. Truly stunning! The whole of South Korea is like falling into a "nobody" virus, and all of a sudden it is deeply involved.

The parody of "Nobody" is on the rise!

On September 24, TVXQ's official fourth album "Mirotic" was officially released. As soon as the market opened, it triggered a rush from fans. Sales are completely huge, according to statistics. The pre-sales have exceeded 300,000, closely following the results of JAJ's mini-album released this year. It is the second highest pre-sale volume of the year.

Compared with its sales, TVXQ's four-series word-of-mouth is insignificant. This time, the returning five have abandoned the usual "SMP" style, which is "SMMiclePerformance". This is a style proposed by Yu Yongzhen, the leading musician of SM Company, and has appeared since the H.O.T period.

The dance and melody are tacitly matched, which is more suitable for fans to support, which is the performance situation of its style. Since their debut, TVXQ and Prince have been labeled with such characteristics. Actually, musicians in the music industry are not interested in this style, starting with H.O.T, every SM company's artist group has an overwhelming number of fans, whether they are jealous or not, but the fact is that regardless of the quality of the song, the mere existence of its fans obviously does not make the album sales ugly!

Prince was mainly led by Kim Sung-han at the beginning, and with his extraordinary talent, with one hit song after another, and even with works like "Standing Still", which made Kim Jong Kook the triple crown, he was able to be taken seriously by musicians, and he also had the label of "powerful faction" with the aura of "idol group". In this regard, Jin Shenghan's contribution to Prince is not insignificant!

In comparison, the TVXQ five people are more helpless, and the company does not give people like Park Youtian and Kim Jae-jung enough space to display their talents. Among those large number of musical works, there are simply very few works that five people participate in the creation.

This return has made many musicians feel disdainful. The rhythmic song "Mirotic" is a reversebeat dance song created by a foreign team, and the music group is a partner invited by SM to enter the United States, so the news caused quite a stir when it first came out.

JAJ is going to enter the United States, and Boa is also entering the United States? The media response was relatively fast, and in addition to the pride that is characteristic of Koreans. Some people will inevitably look forward to the results of both sides!

The topic came back to TVXQ's five after they were used to singing the 'smp' song style. The results of trying Mirotic were a bit unsatisfactory, and the response was mediocre! Fans just think that the melody rhythm of this song is exceptionally strong. But the composition is strange, and it took a long time to become familiar with it.

However, in the end, it is the 'first day group in Asia', and the return after a year and a half is extremely gimmicky, so fans and the media have spared no effort to hype and publicize, giving SM enough face.

On September 25, Wondergirls' third single album "TheWonderYears-Trilogy" was officially released, which is the opposite of TVXQ, although their album was well received and sparked a huge imitation craze. But no matter how good the sales are, they are not as good as the album sales that TVXQ piled up by fans for free! The girl group can obviously only stand aside in this regard, and it can't compare to TVXQ, and the number of 800,000 fans is obviously not a joke.

TVXQ has attracted more attention in album sales, everyone is very curious, it is also the sales piled up by a large number of fans, who is better JAJ or TVXQ? Although JAJ is only a mini-series, it exceeded 500,000 after entering September.

In terms of songs, Wondergirls and Bigbang each lead the way. There are many disputes with each other, and TVXQ also has a high number of downloads of "Mirotic" due to the huge number of fans. Although Li Xiuman has slapped the table several times because of the musician's ridicule of TVXQ's fans, he is still satisfied with the results.

In comparison, the other singers seem to be somewhat tragic. Just like in the second half of 2007, even Superjunior didn't perform as well as it should, and it was the pinnacle showdown between Wondergirls and Bigbang. And this year. There is another TVXQ in this group.

Just like BrownEyedGirls, the second girl group this year, Sun Danfei, who has rebounded in popularity but still can't speak the same day as the first three. Seo Tae-ji, who made a sensation in the Korean music scene in August, and Kim Modeling and others are obviously not qualified to participate in such competition.

Such a competition makes the public naturally very cool to watch! I even wondered, what kind of nerves did the artists have? In the first half of the year, there was no competition when there was a JAJ. In the second half of the year, they all popped up one by one, and it felt like they were hiding from JAJ, but you really want to listen to that song when they all come back.

"One Day at a Time", will Bigbang lose with this? It's hard to say! Wondergirls! There's no way, people are still promoting "Sohot" in the first half of the year! Even the song "Nobody" has a lot of credit to Kim Sung-han. TVXQ made a big splash of money in Japan in the first half of the year, and it didn't have time. Alas! If JAJ joins in, it will be a feast!

There's no way around it. However, since JAJ left South Korea, the news about them has not stopped.

In the second half of August, "JAJcrossing" was released in Japan and had nearly 200,000 views on the first day, with a total of more than 1 million people.

Also in the second half of August, JAJ and kanyewest had an interview, and the news was reported by a medium-sized newspaper in the United States and then spread to South Korea.

In September, "JAJcrossing" landed in South Korea with impressive results! In the same month, the song "Nobody" was announced, and Kim Sung-han, as the composer and arranger, received great attention, and in the eyes of the presidents of all entertainment companies, Kim Sung-han's status completely changed. When Park Jin-young was interviewed, he did not shy away from talking about Kim Sung-han's talent, full of praise!

Even Jeon Jinying couldn't help but think about it! At the end of July this year, Kara returned with Goo Hara and Kang Ji-young, and their combination received a lot of attention because of their status as JAJ's sister, of course, it was just attention!

Kara's mini-series was not as good as expected, although the popularity rebounded, but Kara's return was not at a good time, and it was soon drowned in the sea of people because of the multi-group battle that followed. All they lack is a song! (To be continued......)
