Volume 5 2013 Chapter 886: Burn the Boats
Since he had decided to compromise, Lee Jong Suk acted quickly and soon began planning for his comeback.
In fact, there were some alternative comeback songs before, but the style was uncertain, so it could not be developed later . Now that I am no longer entangled and have decided to return with a sexy style, the song selection, dance choreography, and costume styling have all been included in the daily preparations.
Girl's Day and the entire Dream Tea are getting busy again.
Not only them, Yi Haoyan was also busy.
"Why do you want me to watch you rehearsals? I'm not from the company."
Yi Haoyan was a little surprised when he heard Li Huili's request on the phone.
"Since the president decided to adjust his style after listening to your advice, you can't just ignore it!"
"How can I manage that? I'm not studying dance or fashion design."
"Aren't you a student of the Broadcasting and Performing Arts Department? This department requires you to learn how to manage stage effects, which is also within your professional scope. Come here quickly! The president said that you will be paid, so it's not for nothing."
Lee Hye-ri was too familiar with the boy to be polite at all.
"Why didn't you say so earlier~"
In fact, Yi Haoyan had wanted to go a long time ago, but he had no professional background and wanted to directly participate in the planning of Girl's Day's comeback. Without Lee Jong Suk's invitation, he could only watch. Now this is exactly what he wants.
The boy suppressed his inner joy and happily went to Dream Tea with Enfei.
Lee Jong Suk is very efficient. He selected a total of 14 songs for this comeback, including "Twinkle, Twinkle", "Don't Forget Me", "Oh my god" and "Hold Me One More Time", basically covering all the songs of the group from the beginning of its popularity to its comeback today. In addition, it also includes the Intro "Girl′s Day World" written by Park So-jin, and "I don't mind", with lyrics written by all members and composed by American musician Gregg Pagani.
This is also Girl's Day's first full-length album.
"Wow! President Li, this is a big deal! A full album with 14 songs. The company is really strong!"
Yi Haoyan was very surprised.
Previously, it was said that the company was going out of business due to financial problems, but now it seems that is not the case. To release a regular album, the investment is much greater than that of a single.
“The company is really out of money.”
Lee Jong Suk gave a wry smile.
“But I mortgaged my house.”
"What?"
The boy was shocked, he never expected Lee Jong Suk to go to this extent.
"Mortgage the property? Why?"
"No money."
"This...if it fails, won't we even lose our house?"
A house in Seoul is not cheap.
"It's okay. The worst result is that the company goes bankrupt and the group disbands. The money from the mortgaged property cannot be repaid for the time being. There is still some time before the house is auctioned. I should be able to find a way. This method is just to solve the problem of capital turnover. It won't make you lose your house."
Lee Jong Suk downplayed it.
"The kids have worked hard with me for so long, but they haven't even released a proper album. If this is Girl's Day's last comeback, at least we should leave no regrets."
"Do they know?"
The young man was a little shocked. He didn't expect that this seemingly gentle president could be so ruthless when doing things.
"Everyone knows that there is no need to hide this from the children. We are companions who have fought together to this day. There is no need to hide it from them."
“Is that so?”
This incident refreshed Yi Haoyan's understanding of Girl's Day and Lee Jong Suk.
The relationship between the president of this company and its artists is not only like father and daughter, but even better than that between Kim Si Dae and Sistar.
"Because this is the last fight, I hope to give it my all without any regrets, so I also called Haoyanxi over, and I hope you can help as well."
At this time, Lee Jong Suk no longer looked like a president. He was just a final gambler who bet everything he had.
"I will do my best, President Li."
This desperate attitude greatly touched the young man.
He decided to take it seriously.
This is about the dreams of a man and four girls, and also about a special bond of sharing weal and woe, honor and disgrace.
…
…
During the following period, Yi Haoyan almost became a member of Dream Tea and actively participated in the entire planning of this comeback.
In the choice of the main
This is a typical dance song, describing a girl's inner monologue about her favorite boy, expressing the conflicted feeling of expectation but unattainable.
The lyrics are simple and straightforward, easy to remember, and the song is highly repetitive, which is in line with the characteristics of "addictive" and very brainwashing. Although it does not seem to have much artistic flavor, it is simple and crude, and has an excellent brainwashing effect.
The songs that are popular among Korean groups in recent years are all of this type.
"The first line must be sung by Su Zhennu. Since it is a sexy style, there must be that special feeling from the beginning. Su Zhennu is the most suitable for this style. It is important to catch the ear at the beginning."
Yi Haoyan is not good at singing, he made his judgment based on style.
Aside from lead vocalist Fang Min-ah, Park So-jin is the second best singer in the group, and her voice is naturally charming and mature, making it perfect for setting the tone for the entire song right from the start.
The sound engineer also agreed with this suggestion.
When recording, Park So-jin made full use of the resonance of the chest and head, and added some breath sounds. The first sentence was sung with a weeping and sad feeling, which was very catchy.
For the following singing parts, everyone recorded according to her feeling.
The whole song has a clear rhythm and a simple structure. It is very addictive. There is no high-pitched part, the climax part is repeated, and there are many onomatopeia, so it is easy to remember.
Songs have always been Girl's Day's strong point, and Yi Haoyan didn't make much comment in this regard.
But it's different when it comes to the dance part.
…
…
"This... doesn't feel right..."
After watching the first version of the choreography, Yi Haoyan shook his head, a little disappointed.
"We are going for a sexy style this time, which requires a dance that breaks through the past style. The current conventional movements won't work."
"Why not?"
Park So-jin, who had just finished dancing, was breathing heavily while asking questions to the dance teacher. As the team leader, she also participated in some of the choreography.
"In the past, Girl's Day's style was somewhat subtle. This time, we need to show a completely different look on stage, and we need some action designs that can break the bottom line. The current choreography is still a bit secretive and too conventional, and there is no sense of surprise."
The so-called sexiness of this version of the dance is still some common twisting of the waist and hips, which can be seen in many dances of other Korean groups and are not uncommon.
"You must go too far to correct a wrong! This time it's a complete transformation, and it has to make people smile from ear to ear after seeing it."
Yi Haoyan's attitude was very firm.
The girls looked at each other, and were as speechless as the choreographer.
They thought the moves they choreographed overnight were pretty good, but they didn't expect to receive such comments.
"I feel the same way. It's still not eye-catching enough."
Lee Jong Suk was not very satisfied either.
The choreographer can only re-arrange it.
But after several days and several versions of the action, Yi Haoyan was not satisfied with any of them.
For a moment, the choreography of the dance part came to a standstill.
