Raising a Neglected Singer-Songwriter Episode 150

150. Revolution

Community ID ‘Sky Angel’.

The main character, A, an ordinary office worker, has a younger sister.

My younger sister, who was so obsessed with a male singer that she even ran a fan cafe, was truly a foolish being who would burst into a nosebleed every time she saw the singer’s face.

At first, I was going to say something because I was displeased with my younger brother, but after seeing the face of the singer my younger brother idolized, I understood and thought, “That’s understandable.”

If he had a heavenly appearance like ‘Seongjun’, I could fully understand his younger brother’s obsession.

one side,

Originally, singer fans tend to promote their favorite singers or other singers from the same entertainment company as their favorite singers.

That was why my younger sister, who suffers from anemia, recommended a girl group creation survival program to me.

‘My favorite girls’.

The program’s name was classic, if not downright otherworldly.

It seems like the agency and broadcasting station had a strong intention to cause aggro.

However, the program format called ‘Survival’ stimulated the curiosity of ‘Sky Angel’.

That’s because he was also of an age when audition programs were popular.

‘Super Voice Star’, ‘Tell Me the Money’, ‘Produce Idol’, etc.

He began to feel nostalgic for the audition programs he once enjoyed watching.

These days, there aren’t any programs that I particularly watch.

Because terrestrial broadcasting died out with the advent of YouTube and Flexnet, which were completely free from restrictions.

So I turned on the TV with a third of ‘curiosity’, a third of ‘I have nothing else to do’, and a third of ‘my little brother is begging me, so I’ll grant him his wish’.

That was the first time I saw the girls in white training suits in the program.

Shararararaaaa-

As sacred BGM played in his head, a bright light appeared in his world that had been filled with boredom.

It was the moment when I became a fan of ‘My Favorite Girls’, who would later debut as ‘Breeze’, in just one episode, and the moment when a MXM Entertainment fan sibling was born in one family.

Needless to say, I watched the girls’ journey for the next 10 episodes without missing a single episode.

I also shed tears with the girls when they finally confirmed their debut.

one side,

As the ID ‘Sky Angel’ suggests, the man’s favorite girl was Jin Ha-neul.

The reason is as expected-

“The visual of the sky is simply ‘light’.”

A pure and extreme visual that naturally stimulates men’s protective instincts.

According to ‘Heavenly Angel’, she was the best looking female idol in Korea.

‘Sky Angel’ later joined ‘Breeze’s’ fan cafe and actively engaged in missionary work, and in recognition of his contributions, he was appointed to a position as a fan cafe operator.

Only after I was promoted to the same position as my younger sister, whom I had looked down on so pitifully, was I able to feel the honor, pride, and great sense of responsibility and hardship that came with the title of ‘management team’.

And finally.

The long-awaited day of the five fairies’ descent into the mortal world has arrived.

In time for the pre-announced music video release, he took a bath and purified himself as a follower of the ‘light’, sat in front of the TV connected to his cell phone, and waited, maintaining a pious posture.

The younger sister came and sat down next to the ‘heavenly angel’.

“Do you want to watch our fairies’ music video too?”

“Well, because the title song of Breeze was composed by oppa Sungjun.”

The fact that Sungjun, who served as a mentor in ‘My Favorite Girl’ and recently took over the Korean Kiwi charts, participated has already become a hot topic among Breeze fans.

Given Sungjun’s ‘myth’ that brought back the idol group ‘Mimyosonyeo’, who were on the verge of disbandment, to the top, it was only natural that there would be even higher expectations for ‘Breeze’s’ debut song.

And the music video release time announced by MXM Entertainment is right on time.

[BLIZ (Breeze) ‘Bright’ Official MV]

The title song music video of ‘Breeze’ has been uploaded to YouTube.

‘Sky Angel’ and his sister played the music video.

The first screen was dark.

A classroom with the curtains drawn and the lights off.

The beat flows out during three seconds of silence.

“oh?”

The ‘Sky Angel’ pricked up his ears and let out a soft exclamation.

The beat is quite different from the introduction of recent idol songs.

Instead of powerful and stimulating beats that break up quickly, it was ‘easy listening pop’ with soft, rhythmic beats.

The screen then changed.

Someone’s hand pushing aside the dark curtain.

Then, a dazzling sunlight that appears as a hexagon comes in from outside the window and illuminates the classroom.

There were five girls wearing pure white uniforms, like the first snow that fell on a snowy field.

What caught my eye was that everyone had long, straight hair.

And as the song begins, the face of Jin Ha-neul, the team leader and visual center who took charge of the introduction of Verse 1, is shown in close-up.

Flawless, clear skin.

The densely packed eyes, nose, and mouth that make you wonder how they all fit into her small face make the viewer exclaim in admiration.

“As expected, the visuals are crazy.”

“That’s right. Among the 4.5 generation, the visuals seem to be unrivaled.”

The younger sister also nods her head and agrees.

The girls’ music videos set in school continued.

During each vocal part, the girls’ faces are shown one after the other.

Jin Ha-neul comes out in front of the podium and writes ‘Bright’ on the blackboard, while Alice, a mixed-race girl, looks at Jin Ha-neul with her chin resting on his hand.

Lee Haru bouncing a basketball in an indoor gym.

Nang-pyeong and Eun-hye Min sit together in a restaurant, laughing while eating the food they received on their plates.

Five girls running across the hallway and gathering on the rooftop to dance.

I can’t help but smile at the sight of her, which reminds me of my pure first love during my school days.

At the same time, what the ‘Heavenly Angel’ felt was ‘comfort’.

When I first said the genre was ‘easy listening pop’, I was worried that the song might end up being bland and lacking in impact because it had low highs and lows and no introduction, development, turn, and conclusion.

‘But that wasn’t it.’

Even in the light-hearted melody, there is a rhythmic quality to it, so it is not boring at all and actually makes you move your shoulders.

Since the accompaniment is not excessive, the different tones of each of the five girls are clearly audible, which adds flavor to the light melody.

Moreover, the relaxation that comes from easy listening music is emphasized, and listening fatigue is also reduced.

It feels like it would be comfortable to listen to it all day long.

“The choreography is also very easy to follow.”

My younger sister, who was watching the music video with me, was naturally following Breeze’s choreography in the video while sitting on the sofa.

Even my younger sister, who loves idols so much, can follow along right away.

Instead of a sharp and intense dance routine, the choreography was composed in a way that gave the feeling of girls of that age lightly jumping around, and it seemed like anyone who was hearing the song for the first time could easily follow along and enjoy it.

Then the verse ended and we entered the chorus.

The background changed to a green grass playground.

Five girls wearing pure white tracksuits the same color as their school uniforms form a line around the main dancer, Haru Lee, and dance and sing.

“I’m looking for some brightness.”

The voices of the girls with long, flowing hair come together as one a cappella, creating an ecstatic harmony.

It makes the listener feel at ease, and the stress and resentment that has built up in this harsh world are purified and healed.

Maybe that’s why.

“I’m looking for some brightness.”

Before I knew it, I found myself humming the chorus melody.

It wasn’t just because he was a ‘Breeze fan’.

It’s because the easy and light yet catchy melody naturally sticks to your mouth.

The 3-minute music video that had mesmerized my eyes, ears, mouth, and body ended.

“···good night.”

The review was short and concise, but it contained a lot of meaning.

Pure and refreshing high teen.

It was a music video that properly showed the identity of the group called ‘Breeze’.

It is easy, comfortable, and friendly, but also has a sophisticated feel that is in line with today’s trends.

The community’s reaction was no different from his own.

There were already numerous posts and comments on the Breeze Gallery.

– When it comes to girl groups, pure high teen is the truth.

n ‘Jin’ sky + ‘Lee’ day = truth

N Of course, the end of tuning is purity! Black hair, white school uniform, and gym uniform are crazy!

n Refreshing, pure, sporty, hip, fresh, sophisticated, and girlish are all in this one song.

n Real, it feels like you’re listening to and drinking Pocari with your ears and eyes

N ugh! I’m tired of metaphors

– The visuals and voices of the five members of Breeze were really perfect together.

n Each voice has a different personality

ㄴ Originally, I only knew Jin Ha-neul and Lee Ha-ru, but in this music video, the other members’ charms also ooze out.

N Eunhye Min is some kind of main character, but she’s so pretty that she’s a visual member, Alice has crazy proportions and height, and Nangpa has a strangely attractive vibe. And if you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t know she’s Thai.

ㄴ Congratulations on falling for the charm of our Nangpha. ‘Nangpha’ means ‘goddess’ in Thai – by Nangpha Mom since ‘Minso’ –

That was right.

Even I, who is a ‘Jin Ha-neul Baragi’, found myself looking at all five girls equally while watching this music video.

We couldn’t leave out the story about the genre called ‘easy listening pop’.

– But isn’t this the first time a girl group has done easy listening pop? Honestly, I was worried, but it was really good.

N yeah. It went so well with Breeze and was so comfortable to listen to.

n It’s good to play it softly in a cafe, it’s good to play it while studying, and anyway, it’s on endless repeat.

n I have a prediction. ‘Bright’ is a revolution. And ‘Bright’ will be a trend changer in the music industry. It seems like easy listening songs will keep pouring out like mushrooms in the future.

– Composed by Sungjun, written by Shine, visual directed by Shin Jinhee. It was a combination that couldn’t fail from the start.

N producers are crazy

ㄴ Seriously, there’s probably no composer who picks Breeze kids’ songs as well as Sungjun, including ‘BLOOM’ and ‘Break the Spell’ that were made during ‘Bright’ and ‘Minimum’. Even the easy listening pop songs he picked this time are examples.

Oh, ‘Holy Father’. How far does his insight extend?

– But is it because the genre is easy listening pop? The song looks easy, but didn’t they intentionally choose this genre because the kids don’t have the skills?

N You idiot. It’s really hard to get the feel of a light song like this. Go to a karaoke and sing it. See if you can get that feeling.

And don’t you have any skills at all? Go watch the kids’ ‘minimum’ stage. They all have amazing basic skills.

N If you say something wrong once, you’ll get ripped off like a threshing machineㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

There were various other opinions as well.

– Let’s analyze the music video based on the Breeze worldview. Breeze was originally a fairy. And they became students in order to blend in with the human world. Breeze’s mission is to purify the world, to dye darkness with light. The reason she chose school is probably because she judged that school is where the darkness of the world begins. It’s a place where more serious things happen than in society. So purifying the school first will become a stepping stone for purifying the future world. And at the beginning of the first music video, the classroom is dark. The curtains are down and the lights are off. The hand that pulls back the curtains is Breeze’s hand. And the light comes in and reveals girls with long hair in pure white, purified colors. The nostalgia for purity that everyone desires, the image of an ideal world. So, Seullamune…

N Please summarize in three lines

There were also lengthy music video analyses like this.

– I’m a aunt who happened to become a fan of ‘Breeze’ after hearing a song that my daughter was listening to. When I listened to the songs of the ‘Breeze’ friends, I was reminded of the old days. It seems like they’re a group that inherited the innocence that idols had back then.

N I admit it. I also have a hard time listening to other idol group songs these days because they’re noisy and hectic, but this song is so relaxing that it’s nice to listen to. It also brings back the emotions of that time.

ㄴ It’s a song that mothers and daughters can listen to together! Breeze’s great integration of generations!

ㄴ Later, the mother and daughter can go to the Breeze concert together holding handsㅎㅎㅎㅎ

In this way, the easy listening pop song ‘Bright’ reminds some people of first generation idols.

There was also an article that said that it was refreshing for today’s generation, who are accustomed to girl crush and sexiness.

So finally,

All three rookie girl groups of July will be releasing their debut title songs to the world.

And what does that mean?

“So now it’s decided which of the three teams will win first place?”

Even before their debut, the public’s expectations were at an all-time high for the three-way battle between the new artists from the four major entertainment companies.

Moreover, coincidentally, all three teams have different concepts and genres.

Thanks to this, as soon as Breeze’s title song was released, various communities, blogs, press articles, and K-pop YouTubers began comparing the three teams.

[Girl Crush ‘Seven Days’ vs. Subjectivity ‘Name’ vs. Innocent High Teen ‘Breeze’]

[KG vs HYPE vs MXM, who will be the winner of the 4.5 generation girl group battle?]

A provocative confrontational structure has been created that will drive the public crazy and delusional.

Opinions differed depending on individual tastes, but the common thread was that Breeze’s easy-listening pop was sensational like never before.

This title song, which breaks away from the formula of ‘girl crush & sexy’ concept that has dominated the K-pop girl group market until recently, has been praised by many.

“···what’s this?”

It elicited a reaction called .

One, whatever they were talking about from the beginning was ultimately an online analysis.

You never know who will win until you actually compete against each other.

Is this KG, the proven talent who raised Pink Rose?

Is this the traditional idol powerhouse HYPE?

Shinsung, who came out with easy listening pop, is MXM Entertainment.

Each of the four major entertainment companies’ pride and honor are at stake.

At the same time, there was a separate battlefield where three teams and three different colors would compete without compromise for the title of the 4.5 generation New Princess.

“Hello, it’s Encounter for the fourth week of July!”

A music show with three teams standing together has begun.
