Description (Translated):
Girl's Day releases first full-length album after 2 years and 8 months of debut
Girl group Girl's Day will release their first full-length album 'Expectation' after 2 years and 8 months of debut. Girl's Day's first full-length album 'Expectation' is 'Twinkle Twinkle' and 'You, don't look away!' Composer Nam Ki-sang, who created Girl's Day's hit songs such as "Hug Me Once" and "Don't Forget Me," served as the general producer.
After debuting in July 2010 with the first single album 'Tilting', he has released a total of 15 albums, including 2 mini albums, 5 digital singles, 2 special singles, 2 composer project albums, and 4 drama OSTs. vigorous activity has been carried out. In particular, 'Twinkle Twinkle' released in March 2011 recorded an unprecedented hit, and since then, they have established themselves as Korea's most popular girl group through entertainment, drama CFs, and performances in Japan. The title song 'Expect' (composer Nam Ki-sang / lyricist Nam Ki-sang DANIEL R.) is armed with a customized hybrid sound with an appropriate arrangement of analog and electronic sounds. Especially in this song, you can taste the fresh and unique vocals of Hyeri and Yura, and the mature singing ability of lead vocalists Sojin and Minah, which go back and forth between sexy and sexy.
It delicately expresses the psychology of a woman who wants to make a flirtatious but cool man her own, and the exciting and addictive chorus refreshingly unravels a topic that can be heavy. Producer Nam Ki-sang praised them, saying, “They have matured even more in terms of looks and music. The first regular album 'Expectation' contains 6 new songs including the title song 'Expect'. What is eye-catching is that the members participated in writing lyrics and composition, and played a large part in creating Girl's Day's unique musical color. Leader Sojin, who has already been recognized for her creative skills by releasing her own song called 'Telepathy', released 'Girl's day world', which she wrote and composed herself for this first full album. Introduced as the album's intro, this song directly expresses Girl's Day's charms. It is an exciting beat and minimal synths to highlight their voices, announcing a more honest and anticipated start.
In addition, 'I don't mind', in which all members participated in writing the lyrics for the song of "Gregg pagani", a famous American producer who made hit songs for pop stars such as Babyface, Charlie wilson, Jon B, and Che'Nelle, goes beyond their musical sense. You can get a glimpse of the upgraded musicality. This song is a gift from "Gregg pagani" to Girl's Day, and it is characterized by a completely different atmosphere from Girl's Day's previous songs. In addition, this album includes 'Easy go!' and 'Don't Trust Her' by composer Han Sang-won, who worked on girl group Kara's Japanese single 'Go Go Summer', VOS's 'I Now', and Monday Kids' 'Footprints' (lyricist, Glory Face). New songs such as Deul, Sinaae / Composed by Glory Faces, GentleMan), and 'How Good' (lyricist Eva / composer Soulzean) were included.
As Hyeri, the youngest member of the team, turned 20, the atmosphere of the entire team changed. Armed with a sexy concept from choreography, outfits, hairstyles, and makeup, this album shows a more mature Girl's Day compared to previous albums. As for the outfit, the black & red color code, see-through through which the underwear of the top shines through, and short hot pants emphasized the overall arrogance and restrained sexiness. The choreography also focuses on movements that emphasize the beauty of the chest, waist, and legs, which Girl's Day has not shown before, so you can feel the restrained sexiness.
Description (Original):
걸스데이, 데뷔 2년 8개월 만에 첫 정규앨범 발매
걸그룹 걸스데이가 데뷔 2년 8개월 만에 생애 첫 정규앨범 ‘Expectation'을 발매한다. 걸스데이 첫 정규앨범 ‘Expectation'은 ‘반짝반짝’ ‘너, 한눈팔지마!’ ‘한번만 안아줘’ ‘나를 잊지마요’ 등 그동안 걸스데이의 히트곡들을 탄생시킨 작곡가 남기상이 총 프로듀서를 맡았으며 자작곡을 포함 신곡 6곡 기존 타이틀곡 6곡 등 총 14곡이 수록됐다.
지난 2010년 7월 첫 번째 싱글앨범 '갸우뚱'으로 데뷔한 후 미니앨범 2장, 디지털싱글 5장, 스페셜 싱글 2장, 작곡가 프로젝트앨범 참여 2장, 드라마 OST 4장 등 총 15장의 앨범을 발표하며 왕성한 활동을 펼쳐왔다. 특히 2011년 3월 발표한 '반짝반짝'이 공전의 히트를 기록했으며 이후 예능과 드라마 CF, 일본 공연 등을 통해 대한민국 대표 인기 걸그룹으로 자리매김했다. 타이틀곡 ‘기대해’(작곡 남기상 / 작사 남기상 DANIEL R.)는 아날로그와 일렉트로닉이 적절히 배치된 맞춤형 하이브리드 사운드로 무장했다. 특히 이곡은 혜리와 유라의 상큼하고 개성 있는 보컬과 리드보컬 소진과 민아의 요염과 섹시를 오가는 원숙한 가창력을 맛볼 수 있다.
바람둥이 같지만 멋진 그 남자를 내 것으로 만들어 보고 싶어 하는 여자의 심리를 섬세하게 표현했으며 신나고 중독성 있는 후렴구로 무거울 수 있는 주제를 상큼하게 풀어놓았다. 프로듀서 남기상은 “그녀들은 외모나 음악적으로나 한층 성숙됐다.”며 “이번 활동을 통해 걸스데이의 180도 달라진 모습을 보실 수 있을 것이다”고 칭찬을 아끼지 않았다. 첫 정규앨범 ‘Expectation’은 타이틀곡 ‘기대해’를 포함해 신곡 6곡이 수록됐다. 눈길을 끄는 것은 멤버들이 작사와 작곡에 참여하며 걸스데이만의 음악적 색깔을 만드는데 큰 몫을 했다는 점이다. 이미 ‘텔레파시’라는 자작곡을 발표해 창작실력을 인정받은 리더 소진은 이번 첫 정규앨범에도 직접 작사/작곡한 ‘Girl's day world’를 발표했다. 앨범 인트로로 소개된 이 곡은 걸스데이의 매력에 대해 직설적으로 표현한 곡으로 신나는 비트에 미니멀한 신스들로 목소리를 더 부각시켜 좀 더 솔직하고 기대되는 시작을 알리고 있다.
또 Babyface와 Charlie wilson, Jon B, Che'Nelle 등 팝스타들의 히트곡을 만든 미국 유명프로듀서 "Gregg pagani"의 곡에 멤버 전원이 작사에 참여한 ‘I don't mind’는 그녀들의 음악적 감각을 뛰어넘어 한층 업그레이드된 음악성을 엿볼 수 있다. 이 곡은 "Gregg pagani"가 걸스데이에게 보낸 선물로 그동안 걸스데이 곡들과는 사뭇 다른 분위기를 맛볼 수 있는 것이 특징이다. 또 이번 앨범에는 걸그룹 카라 일본 싱글 ‘고고썸머’, V.O.S의 ‘나 이젠’, 먼데이키즈의 ‘발자국’ 등을 작업한 작곡가 한상원의 ‘Easy go!’와 ‘그녀를 믿지마’(작사 영광의 얼굴들, 시나에 / 작곡 영광의 얼굴들, GentleMan), ‘어쩜좋아’(작사 Eva / 작곡 Soulzean) 등 신곡이 수록됐다.
팀의 막내 혜리가 스무 살이 되면서 팀 전체의 분위기도 달라졌다. 안무, 의상, 헤어스타일, 메이크업까지 섹시 콘셉트로 무장한 이번 앨범은 기존 앨범들과 비교해 한층 성숙한 걸스데이를 만날 수 있다. 의상은 블랙&레드 컬러 코드에 상의 속옷이 비추는 시스루, 짧은 핫팬츠를 통해 전체적으로 도도함과 절제된 섹시미를 부각시켰다. 안무 역시 그동안 걸스데이가 보여주지 않았던 가슴과 허리, 다리의 각선미를 강조한 동작들을 중점으로 구성해 절제된 섹시미를 느낄 수 있다.
