[LYRICS] KIM WOOSUNG āģøė”ģā (Lonely)
Why have I been so
lonely recently,
when only the weather is changing?
I want to lean on someone too
Except thereās no one to call
Was it my fault?
I didnāt know then
They called and cared too much
Did they feel like that too?
Probably only my excuses are left
Is it selfish? If only I knew how precious that time was
I canāt go back right? Old wounds only get deeper
It seems like we werenāt meant to be
No matter how much I try to blame the situation.
I tried to avoid it but alas, this is the truth
You didnāt like me as much I guess
Was it my fault?
I donāt even know now
If what you said was really the truth
Anyway
In the end whatās left
Is my wounds making up excuses
Is it selfish? If only I knew how precious that time was
I canāt go back right? Old wounds only get deeper
What I did wrong
I know now
I became used to being left alone
Is everyone
Lonely like this?
My heart is like an empty street
Is it selfish? If only I knew how precious that time was
I canāt go back right? Old wounds only get deeper

[Interview ā ] Superbandās Kim Woosung, āSuperband is a programme that gave me learning points and memoriesā
Band Moneās Kim Woosung gained a lot through JTBCās Superband, heās not envious of the winning teamās benefits.
Kim Woosung who entered āSuperbandā with his band members from The Rose, was the only one to go through to the next round and formed MonĆ© (with the other participants), and placed fourth in the finale. Kim Woosung showed different stages every round and widened his musicality spectrum. With skills and star qualities, he successfully attracted attention. And he also shot a commercial for the first time in his life. He developed vocal cord modules during the competition but, forming a group with 4 vocals in 5-people group MonĆ©, they were able to complement each other. With the love he received from Superband, he follows with a solo album release. The solo mini album is set to release on the 25th of July.
- Your thoughts on Superband ending.
Relieved. Itās a shame. After the programme ended, the next day I thought āah, I could have done betterā and I had regrets thinking āI should have done this and that during that roundā.
- do you feel your popularity?
I havenāt been out and about since after the programme so I think thatās why I donāt really feel it. But during the finals, we saw the food support that the fans prepared for us and thought that we are receiving so much love. Ginseng Chicken, Abalone, Eel, Beef, these were all things that are good for the body. And we felt so reassured going up on stage.
- The reason for signing up for superband at the beginning?
While promoting with my members as The Rose and being with the members composing, writing and producing songs, we donāt have much chances to meet other musicians. And we didnāt have any connections to make new music. We thought if we carry on like this, weāll end up as frogs in a well so for our individual growth and growth as a team, we though itāll be good for us to listen to a lot of music and do (new music) ourselves. It was then that we got to know about Superband so we signed up. While doing Superband, I thought āI did well coming hereā everyday. If met musicians whom I never would have met if I didnāt come onto this programme, and I learnt a lot during this competition.
- The Rose shot a TV ad too.
āItās the first ad since we debuted. Itās an ad that shows our story so it was even better. When I first saw the full video, emotions bubbled up within me, i thought of old memories and it spurred me on further to do music.
- You were the only one in The Rose to go up to the finals. Who was the contestant you relied on the most?
āAfter my members left I didnāt know anyone so I felt really alone. Iām an introvert, I donāt really approach problem first so I was quite worried. I formed a team with Chansol-Hyung and relied on him a lot while preparing for the stage. When I first saw Chansol-hyungās first performance, I really wanted to work with him no matter what, it was nice being in a team with him.
- Your voice seemed strained towards the end of the broadcast
āI developed vocal cord nodules during round 3. While teaming up with Kim Youngso and Lee Nau, I practiced a lot. It was then that I overdid it. From then on I developed vocal nodules.ā
- What meaning do you think Superband leaves as a programme?
āIt was a programme that allowed my musical abilities to grow. It was also a programme that allowed me to develop certain virtues that are needed in the entertainment industry like patience etc.. this programme taught me a lot and gave me a lot of memories.
(End of interview 1)
[Interview ā”] Superbandās Kim Woosung, āOur goal was to win, it was a shame we didnātā
- How was forming the MonƩ team like at first?
āTo be honest we were at a lost. There were four vocals but only Zairo and Minjae were the only members who could handle their part with their instruments. I think MonĆ© is quite a special combination. Even though the members didnāt have their specific instrument parts, everyone could play a little so collectively we planned the stages as such.ā
- MonƩ continued showing original songs.
We had two weeks to prepare for a new round. Two weeks were too short, so we all brought songs that we already wrote and finished them. We didnāt just prepare one song, every round we had about 5 songs to choose from. To edit and produce the song, we usually only finished it the day before the competition. So to avoid any confusion on stage, we all had earphones on in the waiting room to practice.
- The choreography during āwooingā left a big impression.
āHahaha (laughs) actually there were a lot of opinions about dancing while working on the song. But thinking about the music and the stage, we thought that adding the dance would be better. The process of making the stage was really fun, and I enjoyed the moment a lot. The reaction from the audience was good and it made me happy. If they liked it it means that the intent of courting was successfully communicated to them (laughs)ā
- The monĆ© members looked really relaxed, as if they werenāt clinging onto the first place.
āWeāve heard that a lot. But why wouldnāt we have any hopes for the first place? We were vying for it but we just acted like we didnāt. That showed in our final song, āidcā. While preparing for this we decided between ourselves that we had to win. Not sleeping at night and preparing for this was because of our desire to win. But I think because of the music and how we just enjoyed the stage to our fullest, it seemed like it came across as us not vying for the win. We had first place as our goal but we didnāt achieve it, itās such a waste. The thing I feel most sad about is that we placed fourth at the finals.
(End of interview 2)
[Interview ā¢] Superband Kim Woosung, "MonĆ©ās future plans? Weāll have a good talk about it together."
- Going up to the finals, you must have been mindful about The Rose members. Werenāt you worried that if you won, you wouldnāt have been able to promote as The Rose for a while.
āFortunately when we first signed up, weāve already talked about it. We were all willing to wait for each other even if any of us had other activities for 1-2 years. The Rose are friends that will do music together for our lives, so if any one of us canāt promote together for 1-2 years, it wouldnāt be an issue. So we did our best and entered the programme. Just doing it half-heartedly and being eliminated isnāt polite to The Rose members, the programmeās producers and to the other participants.
- Do you have any musicians amongst the Superband contestants you want to do a featuring or collaboration with in an album of The Rose?
āI want to do music with Mellow Kitchen hyung again. I want to do something with Hong Jinho, and I want to do a duet with Chansol Hyung again. Whatever MonĆ© does together will be great.
- The experience with Superband, will it have an effect on The Roseās music?
āOf course. I think there will be a change musically. We wonāt only be doing one style of music but trying out other genres will be a good picture too.
- Do you have any plans to promote as monƩ?
āWe didnāt talk about it but I think in a while weāll gather and have a good talk.ā
- What are your plans for future activities?
āIāll be releasing my solo album which Iāve been preparing for two years, after which The Rose have plans to release a single. We also have plans to hold an American tour through 9 cities at a 1000~2000 pax scale (?). There is a Superband national tour as well.ā
- What kind of musician do you wish to become?
āI hope people would relate to and empathise when they listen to my music. I want to become that kind of musician. My style of music may change, but producing music that people relate to, that wonāt change.

[ARTICLE] 190419 Band vocals who started from audition programmes.. āJannabiās Choi Junghoon-N.Flyingās Yoo Hwe Seung-The Roseās Kim Woosungā
Source š : http://www.topstarnews.net/news/articleView.html?idxno=614824#_enliple
[Lee Ye Ji Reporter] Recently Jannabiās Choi Junghoon appeared on āI Live Aloneā And has become a hot topic. On the other hand, N.Flyingās popularity is increasing and with their song āRooftopā placing first place, itās adding on to the status. On the 12th, The Rose appeared on the audition programme āSuperbandā and became a hot issue.
Ā As such, the current bands of today, while searching for similarities, we found an interesting fact.
Jannabiās Vocal Choi Junghoon, N.Flyingās Vocal Yoo Hwe Seung and The Roseās Vocal Kim Woosung are band vocals who started from audition programmes.
.
.

(They talked about Jannabi and N.Flying but Iām not gonna translate that, itās too long >_<)

The Rose Kim Woosung (August 2017)
The Rose is a 4-people Korean Band who debuted on the 3rd of August 2017. The team members consist of Woosung as guitar and vocals, Dojoon as keyboard and vocals, Hajoon as drums and Jaehyeong as bass. Before debuting, they performed their self-composed songs and cover songs through busking and they debuted through M! Countdown on the 3rd of August.
The Roseās Leader and vocal Woosung is from Los Angeles, USA and he appeared in KPOPSTAR (season 1), which ran for 22 episodes from the 29th April 2012.
Appearing on the programme at that time is DAY6ās member Jae (Park Jaehyung), they became close and even up till now have maintained a close friendship. Woosung, who appeared on KPOPSTAR season 1, sang Jason Mrazās Live High And Rainās How to Avoid the Sun.
Park Jinyoung, Yang Hyunsuk and BoA watched Woosungās stage with a pleased smile and said that he has potential.
After appearing in KPOPSTAR Season 1, he debuted as The Rose 5 years later.
In an interview, he said, āwhen I was eliminated from Kpopstar, I was in my 3rd year of high school. At that time I had a big interest in doing psychology and contemplated going to university too. I went back to the states to further discuss my future with my parents. The conclusion was that āI can go to university next time but to be a singer, if itās not now, itās neverā, and the writer for KPOPSTAR then also said āthere are companies in Korea who want to meet youā so I came to Korea and successfully signed with a company. However, the concept the company wanted was very different with what I imagined. I trained with them for about 3 years and it was a lot harder than I thought. Still, I was teaching English in Korea while chasing my dream of being a singer and I met these friends (The Rose) coincidentally,ā he explained his background before debuting as The Rose.
Also, The Rose appeared in the first broadcast of Superband on the 12th and has garnered a lot attention since.
They sang The Scriptās song, Breakeven, and won the hearts of the judges.
NELLās Kim Jongwan said, āfirstly, I listened to it well. And as expected as a team who has performed continuously you are less nervous than others, and your voice is especially good Woosung-sshi, thatās a big advantage. Your voice itself is cool but itās not easy to express your lyrics through singing but (you did, and) I listened to it well,ā he praised Woosungās voice colour.
Yoon Jongshin said, āthis team has a complete sound and I donāt know if this is an advantage or a disadvantage but as what Jongwan-sshi has mentioned, as a team that has performed continuously, they have their own sound. I think itās because of that that they were a team that sounded good.ā
Ā Moving forward, we have to continue watching to see how The Rose will fair in Superband.
The Roseās company is J&Star Company and The Roseās releases albums are the Rose 1st Single 'Sorry', The Rose 2nd Single 'ģ¢ģėė°' (Like We Used To), Void and Dawn

Band The Rose has once again proven that they are a band of talents. As the only band appearing, The Rose performed The Scriptās Breakeven in the 1st episode of āSuperbandā and showed us their strong stage presence.
The Rose managed to garner the judgesā praises together with positive remarks like āthe rediscovery of The Roseā. We asked The Rose (Woosung, Dojoon, Jaehyeong, Hajoon), who became the talk of the town after appearing on Superband, how they have been doing recently.

āReason: Weirdly none of the movies I like overlap with the movies they like. / We both like acoustic music like Jason Mraz so I match with Dojoon.
4.Alcohol mate is Woosung, Supper mate is Dojoon.
āReason: Hajoon doesnāt really drink, whenever itās supper time I will convince Dojoon...
5. The member whose gag code (humour code) I match well with is Woosung, shopping mate is Woosung.
āReason: Our gag code matches quite well.I play a lot of jokes with him. I was influenced a lot by the Woosungās clothes and shoes so he became my shopping mate.

[ARTICLE] 190413 āSuperbandā THE ROSE, itās their time to shine
Source š : http://tvdaily.asiae.co.kr/article_view.php?aid=15551213981449793010#09Rm
[TV Daily Kim Ji Ha Reporter]
Band The Rose occupied a top spot in a main portal siteās most searched words. In their 3rd year after their debut (t/n: sorry what), itās finally their time to shine.
The Rose (Woosung Dojoon Jaehyeong Hajoon) debuted as a 4-person band in 2017. Wanting to show people music coexists with the beauty of roses and the intensity of its thorns, they threw the hat in the ring (decided to participate).
There are many elements of this band that deserve attention. Even in an āidol oversaturationā situation and with visuals no less than any idol, it was different that they challenged the band industry.
They have both visuals and talent. Similar bands who debuted around the same time, used songs from external composers, The Rose stand out from them using songs and lyrics they composed and arranged themselves, gaining attention through this.
Main vocal Woosungās unique singing style coupled with working together for a long time, their perfect team sound and stage mannerisms received acknowledgment, they gathered expectations from being different from the standard idol groupsā music. (?)
However, the local band industry is tough. Their debut song āSorryā, second single āLike We Used Toā, first mini album VOIDās title song āBabyā and second mini album DAWNās title song āSheās in the rainā, all received positive remarks from concerned parties, but did not attract the attention of the general public.
The strategy The Rose chose was to tackle the overseas market. Their debut song āSorryā was chosen as part of the āBest 20 KPOP songsā list by USAās Billboard in year 2017, and at the beginning of last year, they were chosen as one of the āTop 5 kpop artists to watch in 2018ā by Billboard. Receiving overseas attention first also influenced their strategic decisions.
The songs they have released have better records on overseas iTunes Kpop Charts than local music charts.
Naturally they answered the lovecalls of the overseas fans. Only after 6 months of their debut, they successfully held a Europe tour in five countries (Belgium, Russia, Turkey, UK and Hungary) and went on to tour New York, Boston, etc, a total of 11 cities in North America, Mexico, Brazil, etc., 4 cities in South America and 2 cities in Australia, and 6 countries in Europe.
With names like āglobal bandā, looking for a slice in the local market, they thrown in their hats to participate in JTBCās Superband.
The first broadcast on the 12th featured a variety of multi-talented musicians, also dubbed āmusical geniusesā by the 5 producers Yoon Jong Shin, Yoon Sang, Akdong Musicianās Lee Suhyun, Nellās Kim Jong Wan and (last but not least!!!) Linkin Parkās Joe Hahn, who will be leaving different missions (for the contestants) and making a global superband with this programme.
The Rose, being the only band participating in this episode, chose to perform Breakeven by The Script. With a full sound and Kim Woosungās stable vocals, it was enough to gain the judgesā positive comments.
The showās viewers showed interest too. Simultaneously with the broadcast, NAVER, Daum, etc, they managed to occupy a top search words spot in these portal sites, and successfully peaked peopleās curiousity about The Rose. With their debut song MV breaking the 10 million views mark on YouTube, music fansā interest (in them) have surged.
The Roseās results in āSuperbandā have not been announced. The judges mentioned that only part of the members may go through to the next part of the contest. However during the short time they have made a strong impression, and are gathering the interests of music fans who await the different sides and music they will show us.

[ARTICLE] 190413 'Superband' THE ROSE, There's nothing they can't do, appearance of talent
Source š : http://tvdaily.asiae.co.kr/article_view.php?aid=15551046001449758019
(TVDaily Kim Jong Eun Intern Reporter) The Rose who appears in āSuperbandā are not just good looking but showed outstanding singing abilities too.
On the 12th, the first episode of JTBCās variety program āSuperbandā, outstanding contestants The Rose, Lee Nao, Jisang, Lee Kang Ho, Kim Young So, etc, made their appearance on stage through spectacular performances.
The Rose showed us Breakeven by The Script. Before officially starting their performance, during their warm-up and rehearsal, judges Joe Hahn (Member of rock band Linkin Park) and Singer Yoon Jong Shin, were seen changing their posture and focusing on the group.
Seeing the band do their tuning, Singer Yoon Jong Shin turned to Yoon Sang excitedly and said ātheir sound is goodā. Yoon Sang responded with āthey have toured 7 countries in Europe and 7 cities in Americaā, raising expectations.
The Rose, consisting of the electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar and drums, showed a powerful performance of the song interpreted in their own way. Kim Woosungās voice added to the bandās performance, as the only band in the first episode, they ended their performance safely.
After the performance, they received the judgesā reviews. Firstly Kim Jong Wan (Member of band NELL) did not hold back any praises, āKim Woosungās voice is a huge advantage. The timbre of the voice and his ability to express the lyrics is good.ā Yoon Jong Shin continued with a positive remark, āas a team who have continuously performed, they have their own sound and it sounds good.ā
āSuperbandā works as a āproducer auditionā. A group can participate but they will be judged individually based on their positions. In other words, only part of the team may go through (to the next round) or the entire team may be eliminated. In this situation, Yoon Jong Shin asked āthe whole team might not go through together, is that OK?ā Main vocal and leader Kim Woosung calmly responded with, āeven if we get eliminated, weāve promised to cheer each other on.ā
However, the results of their performance was not shown in this weekās broadcast and it peaked the viewers curiosity. Not just their stunning good looks, combined with both their instrument performance and singing abilities, people are curious with what else they can bring to the table in āSuperbandā.
The Rose debuted in 2017 with The Rose 1st Single āSorryā.
