2022.12.13 CAPSULE 25th Anniversary Special Live Mix Album Intro

[imamirrorballxoxo]

I can’t stop thinking about what Taylor mentioned about being a teenager and having media ask her publicist about her teenage breakup. When you take a step back it is really so bizarre that grown ass people were so invested in the breakup of two children. I know why, it was because kids were interested and so they knew if they wrote about it their fans would want to read it. I don’t blame the children fans, I blame the adult media outlets who should have known better than to invade the privacy of minors. I’m really happy that Taylor had/has such a loving and supportive team/family around her.

ALBUM INTRODUCTION

An 18-year-old girl's shy confession, ‘I… like you, oppa… what do I do?’

IU’S 3rd MINI ALBUM [Real]

IU, who has established herself as a female solo artist representing the music industry with her inborn sensibilities and singing skills, has finally released her third mini-album, [Real] . IU's new album [Real] was co-produced by Cho Young-chul, who has been showcasing trends in the music industry with consecutive hits such as ‘Abracadabra’, ‘Nagging’ and ‘Irreversible’, as well as Choi Gap-won, who has worked with IU for a long time and understands IU's musical sensibilities well. In addition, many top Korean music writers, including Yoon Sang, Kim Hyung-seok, Yoon Jong-shin, Choi Gap-won, Lee Min-soo, Shinsadong Tiger, Kim Eana, Saint binary, Jeon Seung-woo, PJ and Min Woong-sik, participated in the album. All the composers/lyricists who participated in this album willingly participated in the album for IU and her new album is enough to raise fans' expectations just by the lineup of writers.

The songs in this album are filled with high-quality songs, all of which are worthy of being the title track. First of all, composer Kim Hyung-suk's song ‘Not Like This’ is a Shibuya-based electronic medium song that IU tried for the first time and it stands out for its unique structure that flows throughout the song. Kim Hyung-suk, who has always praised IU’s voice tone for its feel, made use of IU's bright and sophisticated singing skills in this song.

The song composed by Yoon Jong-shin, ‘The Night of the First Breakup’ depicts a hectic and embarrassing day of a girl after her breakup and IU expressed the feelings of the song with excellent interpretation skills and emotions. After working on the song, Yoon Jong-shin praised IU as a ‘singer with both musical sensibility and intelligence who is sought after’.

‘In a Room Alone’ with its sensuous arrangements and sophisticated melodies, is a song written by composer Jeon Seung-woo, through which you can sense that IU’s singing tone has become more advanced and her vocals more sophisticated. In particular, IU was directly involved in writing the lyrics for ‘In a Room Alone’, together with lyricist Choi Gap-won, coloring the whole song with the emotions of an 18-year-old girl.

The mournful ballad track ‘What I’m Doing Slowly’ is a collaboration between composer PJ, Min Woong-sik and lyricist Choi Kap-won, who also wrote the lyrics. The song leaves an impression with its lyrical melodies based on acoustic sounds that best match IU and beautiful lyrics about breaking up with someone you were in love with and slowly forgetting the person, so as to love the person just a little more.

Shinsadong Tiger’s ‘Merry Christmas in Advance’ is a confession song, as a gift from IU to her fans and Chundung, a member of MBLAQ, who has built a friendship with IU since her trainee days, participated in the rap and gave her his support. Merry Christmas in Advance’ is a love song that will color everyone's hearts beautifully this winter with IU's bright voice and the cozy music arrangement. IU is regarded as a singer who balances both popularity and musicality at the same time with her passion, constant effort and serious attitude about music, is strengthening her presence as one of Korea’s leading solo artists and her third mini-album, [Real], will be a great gift to the music industry with IU’s presence.
