What group do you think of when you hear 'The master of harmonization'?

 

I'm currently listening to Taetiseo's First Snow and their harmonization blessed my ears... Please recommend me some other songs with great harmonies

DBSK for me

theqoo

-Red Velvet

-BTOB

-Mamamoo

-Mamamoo even adds harmonization in their official greetingsㅋㅋㅋ

-Akdong Musician...

-BTOB and ONF. I remember being impressed when I heard ONF singing acapella on a radio show back then...

-Mamamoo and SHINee

-Sweet Sorrow and BTOB! And the girl group Sullyoon...? is in. I suddenly don't remember the group name...

-I also think of Taetiseoㅋㅋㅋ Their performance of Cater 2 U on Yoo Heeyeol's Sketchbook left a really deep impression on me...

-Why do I think of Lovelyz...?

-This reminds me of Mamamoo's official greetingsㅋㅋㅋ

-Mamamoo... I think NMIXX is also really good with harmonizations

-This reminds me of how DBSK was labeled as 'Acapella Group' when they first debutedㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I really hope Red Velvet to guest on Killing Voice one dayㅠㅠ

-DBSK... Because they were originally an acapella group

He finally joins this challenge after he completed his military service!!
 

 


Father Shownu promised to join the challenge once he completed his military service. I think that would be sometime in 2023 or 2024.

-He's so freaking good at this... Why is he good at this, though?

-I think his arms are too muscular to be a princess?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Look at how the ring doesn't fit his finger...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-He's such a gentleman...ㅠ Son Hyunwoo is really good at dancing girl group dancesㅋㅋㅋ

-I strangely can't stop watching that video...ㅋㅋㅋ He's really goodㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Why can't I stop watching this?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Why does he look so pretty when he dances?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ He suits that song really wellㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-His body looks like a Greek or Roman god... But he dances to this song really well...

-He somehow looks like a father who was asked by his daughter who likes Magical Girls to dance along with herㅋㅋㅋSo cute...

The word that changed meaning at some point in the idol industry

 

Lead Vocal is a term that originally refers to the vocalist of a band, and in the 1st Gen, it was used with the same meaning as 'main vocalist' in this generation.

S.E.S 

Bada (Lead vocalist), Eugene (vocalist), Shoo (vocalist)

g.o.d

Danny Ahn (rapper), Yoon Kyesang (vocalist), Son Hoyoung (vocalist), Kim Taewoo (lead vocalist)


H.O.T

Kangta (Main vocalist), Moon Heejun (Vocalist, leader), Jang Woohyuk (Rapper), Tony Ahn (Vocalist, rapper), Lee Jaewon (Rapper)

Bada and Kim Taewoo were called as 'lead vocalists' and can be considered to have the same position as Kangta, who is a 'main vocalist'

However, starting from the 2nd Gen, the word 'lead vocalist' began to disappear and was completely replaced by 'main vocalist'

Sistar

Hyorin (Leader, main vocalist), Bora (Rapper), Soyou (Sub-vocalist), Dasom (Vocalist)

Interestingly, in the 3rd Gen, 'lead vocalist' refers to a position that is above 'sub-vocalist' but below 'main vocalist'.

Nayeon: lead vocalist, lead dancer

Suho: leader, lead vocalist

Jimin: main dancer, lead vocalist

Seulgi: main dancer, lead vocalist

This phenomenon only occurs in the idol industry and even now, many music critics use the term 'lead vocalist' to refer 'main vocalist'.


-Just call it whatever you want...

-My fandom often has pointless fights over the members' positions. I wonder what's so important about thatㅋㅋㅋㅋ The only thing that matters is whether a singer can sing well or not

-Honestly, both 'main vocalist' and 'lead vocalist' are the terms used to refer the best singers in the group. I think in the idol industry, they're just adding another term for the sake of giving some member positions.

-I just hope they would label the best singer in the group as the main vocalist and refer to the rest of the members as vocalists...

-I know right. That's why a lot of foreigners who are not familiar with K-pop are very confused to differentiate these terms.

-Hul... I didn't know those terms actually had the same meaning

-That basically means 'lead vocalist' and 'main vocalist' actually mean the same thing...

-I used to think 'main vocalist' is the term given to the member with a powerful voice and 'lead vocalist' is given to the member with a unique voice...

-There would be fewer fights if we eliminate the terms 'main' and 'sub' and simply just use 'vocalist', 'dancer', and 'rapper'

-Frankly... Why does this even matter in the first place...

-Don't you guys ever get embarrassed from fighting over little things like this?

Please show Twice a lot of love and attention<3

-I love it when Mina acts like this😌🌸💓 Can they please add a spoon of sexiness in Twice's next comeback concept...

-I mean... Say Something is not that type of song...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-They look really beautiful. I love how they look like they smell really good even in stage outfits that are not fancy...

K-Netz reaction when EXO released Growl

 


Growl... I hope they wouldn't be growling in the lyrics...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Well, the song is still not out yet but...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I hope they wouldn't have lyrics like 'Ah I love you~' in the chorusㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ


This is not real. I can't believe their song is titled Growl. This must be a dream. This is not real. Don't tell me this is real.

Hahahahahah. I can't believe the title is Growl. I'm sure this is not real.
'Growl by EXO' Ahahaha.
Please don't do this, SM. This is not how you do things. 
B... But still, I will try to look forward to it. 
There's no way they would actually be growling in the lyrics. No way. 
Ah... We are one. EXO, let's love. Growl, fighting. 


What the f*ck?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ What the f*ck is Growl?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ F*ckㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Are they f*cking insane?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I refuse to believe this is real.

EXO to promote 'Growl' following their previous song, 'Wolf'.

'That's right, a dog. I'm a dog. Woof woof. Ah, let's go for a walk. I'm a dog and you're my owner.' I'm sure the lyrics wouldn't be like that...?
ㄴ'Your irresistible intense leash has wrapped around me' Awhoooo

The teaser and MV quickly became a hot topic in online communities as soon as they were released
+) It's the song's 10th anniversary this year



-I'm not a fan but I still remember EXO's performance of Growl at MAMA...

-I can totally understand why they all reacted like that because Growl was released right after Wolfㅋㅋㅋㅋ Wolf was too... 'I'm a Wolf!!!', you know...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I remember laughing at them for this song and now... I've been a fan for 10 yearsㅎ

-That song was indeed really sensational...

-I remember thinking that SM has completely lost their mind when I first saw the title... But my mind completely changed after listening to the songㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-2013 to 2015 was a really good time to be a fangirl... Now everything has changed. I really miss those days. I can't believe it has been 10 years since Growl was released.

-I wasn't a fan of EXO back then and I laughed at them for this song...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I feel sorry nowㅋ For your information, I'm an EXO-L now...ㅋ

-I have been a fan of EXO since their debut. I was really shocked when they released Wolf, therefore I was hopeless when I heard their next song was going to be Growl. Seriously, though... I even thought about leaving the fandomㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I laughed at them for this song and that's how I started to become their fan...

-Honestly, I loved Wolfㅋㅋㅋㅋ The Tree of Life choreography was really cool. The whole song and concept is actually fine if it wasn't for the 'Ah I love you~'ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It fascinates me how Growl still doesn't sound old-fashioned even 10 years have passed...

-Crazy... 10 years?? I've gotten f*cking older. That song came out when I was in middle schoolㅠㅠ 

-Hul... It has been 10 years since Growl was released?
