‘First Solo Concert’ Navi “I was tricked by BEAST”





QUOTE
나비가 11일 저녁 서울 홍익대학교 부근 KT&G 상상마당에서 열리는 첫 단독 콘서트를 앞두고 기자간담회에 참석해 비스트를 향한 원망 섞인 투정으로 취재진들의 웃음을 자아냈다.

이 자리에서 그녀는 “오늘 공연에서 첫 게스트로 비스트가 참여한다”며 “여섯 명의 멤버가 다 오는 줄 알았는데 용준형과 양요섭만 온게 됐다. 기대를 한껏 했는데 속았다. 그리고 낚였다”라고 너스레를 떨었다.

이어 나비는 “용준형과 사실 연습을 따로 맞춰보지 못해 아쉽다”며 “전화 통화로 특별히 짠 레파토리가 있다”고 덧붙였다.

그 녀는 정규앨범 수록 곡 ‘다시 돌아와’를 통해 용준형과 호흡을 맞췄다. 이들의 만남은 서로의 소속사 대표들의 인연으로 성사됐다. 나비는 “앨범 녹음을 할 때도 용준형이 해줬으면 좋겠다고 부탁했다”며 “이후에 친해져서 연락도 하고 지내고 있다”고 설명했다.

한 편, 이번 나비의 콘서트에서는 기존의 음악들 외에도 그녀가 평소 좋아했던 팝송과 대중들에게 사랑을 받았던 다른 가수들의 노래도 만나볼 수 있다. 아울러 이 자리에는 밴드 커먼 그라운드가 참여해 라이브 연주로 공연의 풍성함을 더할 예정이며 마이티 마우스, 김태우가 나비와 호흡을 맞춰 색다른 무대를 관객들에게 선사한다.

Navi held her first solo concert at Seoul Hong Ik University near the KT&G vicinity on the 11th in the evening. Prior to the concert, she attended a press conference and was complaining about BEAST playfully, drawing laughter from the reporters.


Here, she stated “At today’s performance BEAST will attend as the first guests” and “I thought all 6 members were attending but only Yong Junhyung and Yang Yoseob came. I was looking forward to it but I was tricked. I was also baited.


Navi continued on “Truthfully, I never got to practice with Yong Junhyung so I feel regretful” and “We have a special repertoire that we prepared over a phone conversation.


She got the opportunity to work with Yong Junhyung because of her song “Come back again” in her new album. Their meeting was established through their company representatives. Navi said “While recording my album I requested to work with Yong Junhyung” and “After this we became close so we still contact each other” she explained.


On the other hand, at Navi’s concert, you will hear not only her songs but also famous pop songs from other singers that she loves. In addition the band Common Ground will attend, providing live accompaniment, further enhancing the live performances. She will also be working with Mighty Mouth and Kim Taewoo, showing different performances for the audience.

[News] Former JYP trainees IU-Kikwang-Hyuna-Eunkyo, "hurricane growth"


Park Jin Young of JYP Entertainment (JYP) has been attracting attentions for trainee auditions of singers that are now active.

IU, Lee Kikwang, Hyuna and Seo Eunkyo.

Seo Eunkyo is in the upcoming girl-group preparing to debut, 5dolls. Hyuna of 4minute and Lee Kikwang of BEAST have also been gaining popularity across Asia.

IU has reached a top popularity with three octaves and her songs "Nagging" and "Good Day". A video of when she auditioned for JYP back during junior high was recently released onto the Internet.

Seo Eunkyo is a rookie with a similar situation to her seniors (T/N: referring to Hyuna who pulled out of JYP because of health issues). Eunkyo recently joined the group 5dolls and soon after the announcement, history of her being a JYP trainee became a hot topic. Seo Eunkyo joined JYP in Elementary school through an audition, but had to quit due to health reasons after being under JYP for 1-year. Now she's a high school student and scheduled to debut soon.

Seo Eunkyo was highly influenced by her mother, who runs a dance school. Since Elementary school, she has performed over 300 times in street performances and is truly a "gifted" dancer.

It's remarkable these now famous stars had ties with JYP in the past.

Note: only translated the parts about Eunkyo.
