‎[Korean Song of the Day]LeeSSang(리쌍) _ Hard To Be Humble(겸손은 힘들어) MV

[Korean Song of the Day] Check out this cuuuuuute MV for Leessang's new song "Humility is Hard"


LeeSSANG is back with their pre-released song "Hard to be Humble" from their 8th album [Unplugged]!
The hardest thing for LeeSSang is to be humble... which helps to understand their insane confidence!
LeeSSang's "Hard to be Humble" is a perfect transformation from emotional hip hop to band sounds.

Having created the modifiers "LeeSsang syndrome", "all-kill of music charts", "long-term control of charts", "music textbook", "musicians' mentor" last year, LeeSSang is back after a year with their full-length 8th album [Unplugged]. 

Released on May 25th, their first pre-released song "Hard to be Humble" is a reinterpretation of the original song by the guru of the Korean music scene Cho Young-Nam into LeeSSang's refined and unique taste. Based on the retro band sounds of the 60s and 70s, the song breaks out from LeeSSang's existing image with its radical musical experiment. As the title suggests, it features a humoresque lyric full of confidence with the dry chorus of Chang Ki-Ha making the song more enjoyable. 

LeeSSang(リサン) _ Hard To Be Humble（謙遜は大変) MV
リサン、8thアルバム［Unplugged］の最初の公開曲「謙虚は大変」でカムバック！
リサンが苦手なのは謙遜．．．自信に満ち溢れている彼らに共感できる理由！
感性ヒップホップからバンドサウンドへ完璧に変身したリサンの「謙遜は大変」。

昨年、'リサン症候群'、'音源チャート席巻'、'音源チャートの長期掌握'、'音楽界の教科書'、'ミュージシャンたちのメンター'などの修飾語を作り出したリサンが1­年ぶりに8ｔｈアルバム［Unplugged］で帰ってきた。

5月25日電撃公開されるリサンの8ｔｈアルバム［Unplugged］の「謙遜は大変」は、韓国音楽界の巨木チョ・ヨンナムの「謙遜は大変」をリサンならではの洗練され­た独特の感覚で再解釈した曲だ。 60、70年代風のレトロなバンドサウンドをベースに、既存のリサンのイメージから脱して果敢な音楽的実験を加味したこの曲は、曲のタイトルからも感じられるようにリサン­の満ち溢れる自信を面白く書いた歌詞とチャン・キハ特有の無味乾燥なコーラスが楽しい曲だ。

리쌍, 8집 앨범 [Unplugged] 첫 번째 선공개곡 '겸손은 힘들어'로 컴백!
리쌍에게 제일 힘든 건 겸손... 그들의 미친 자신감에 납득이 가는 이유!
감성 힙합에서 밴드 사운드로의 완벽한 변신, 리쌍 '겸손은 힘들어'

작년 한 해 '리쌍 신드롬', '음원 차트 올킬', '차트 장기 집권', '음악계의 교과서', '뮤지션들의 멘토'. 이 모든 수식어를 이끌어낸 리쌍이 1년 만에 정규 8집 [Unplugged]로 돌아왔다.

5월 25일 전격 공개되는 리쌍 8집 [Unplugged]의 첫 번째 선공개곡 '겸손은 힘들어'는 한국 음악계의 거목 조영남 원곡의 '겸손은 힘들어'를 리쌍만의 세련되고 독특한 감각으로 재해석한 곡이다. 60, 70 년대 느낌의 복고적인 밴드 사운드를 기반으로 기존 리쌍의 이미지에서 벗어나 과감한 음악적 실험을 가미한 이 곡은 곡 제목에서부터 풍겨오듯이 리쌍의 넘치는 자신감을 해학적으로 풀어낸 노랫말과 장기하 특유의 무미건조한 코러스가 듣는 즐거움을 선사하고 있다.

The KARA Spring takes off in Japan as girl group tours six cities

KARA kicked off the Japanese leg of its Asian tour “Karasia” on Saturday in Yokohama. The band moves on to Nagoya for shows on Wednesday and Thursday followed by performances in Osaka, Fukuoka, Tokyo and Saitama, keeping the girl group busy until late May.

In all, KARA will visit six cities in Japan and perform in front of more than 130,000 fans. 

The girl group held a press conference ahead of its Yokohama concert and talked about the upcoming tour, including the difficulty in performing so many shows in front of such large audiences.

“It’s been five years since we made our debut,” Seung-yeon said. “We’ve improved a lot, but there were difficult times too. We gave it our best and there were times when we were absolutely exhausted. But we needed to go through those difficult moments to get to where we are now.”

The “Karasia” tour began in Seoul on Feb. 18 and will take the group to Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Thailand.

Beast boys to show off bodies in ads

Members of boy band Beast will have yet another opportunity to show off their toned bodies to fans, this time as representatives of the European fitness program bodyART. 

The fitness company said that Beast’s signature look fits perfectly with the way it hopes to promote its brand in Korea.

“To look slim yet toned is the ideal state of the body, and we believe that Beast members showcase the perfect bodies that result from our workouts,” a bodyART representative said.

The fitness program was developed in 1999 by Swiss gymnast and dancer Robert Steinbacher and is a combination of yoga, pilates, tai chi, basic dance and stretching. 

The workout, used by Beast on a recent world tour, promotes weight loss and gives definition to a person’s natural silhouette, according to the company.

The program has swept through Europe and entered the U.S. market in 2010. Korea is the first Asian nation targeted by the brand.
