Korean boyband SS501 has unfolded their maximums in music, drama and other respective domain. After 19months, SS501 returns with their mini album “Rebirth”, bringing every fan in extreme concern, giving warm responds towards their new album.
A lot of fans started downloading their songs which have opened in public at 20th Oct 12a.m. As for the sales of their new song, fans also respond enthusiastically, letting SS501 to be on the top in website search engines on the 20th.
This album has many differences from SS501’s previous works, “LOVE LIKE THIS”, full of pop and brand new rhythm replaced the symbol of the strong dance music of an idol boyband.
The reason of the feel of their new album had changed is because their music producer is from the overseas. This time round, the producer who participates in the album is Steven Lee who produced Japanese boyband KAT-TUN, V6 and German Band US5. Drew Ryan Scott, Sean Alexander and other overseas producers also participate in their album. Ken Lewis who composed Usher, Kanye West, John Legend etc, completed SS501 album as well.
Leader Kim Hyun Joong expressed “SS501 new album is very different from the other albums; we work very hard for the new musics”
Whereas Park JungMin expressed “I heard comments like “So, SS501 can also produce such music”, “the formation of this album turned out to be very different from what we think””.
Kim Hyung Jun said “This album is not the official of the 2nd album, but is released as a mini album which makes me feel very sorry for all our fans. But the completion of this album is very high which did not disappoint our fans. Not only that, we are now preparing for our 2nd album too.”
SS501’s media company DSP expressed that SS501 have finished their recordings, 3-4 songs are not included in this mini album. The songs will either be recorded in their new 2nd official album or another new album. Final decision is not made though.
SS501 who gradually have their own music ideas were contributed in this album. Kim Hyun Joong explained “we had gone through a lot of communicating and work with the staffs; maybe the staffs were from the overseas, so we did not feel pressurized. This experience is the first time; I was stunted by myself too. But still, we ended up producing the Korean POP style album.”
Kim Hyun Joong continued “Perhaps we participate and contributed a lot in this album, thus we like this album a lot.” He added “We are relying on the belief of “rather than following the music trend, why not producing a SS501 trend?” to produce this album.
Kim Kyu Jong expressed “we have high percentage of participation in “Rebirth”, this is album is also produced with all of our ideas and opinions.”
The album has also recorded the “Green Pea” song, which was written by SS501 themselves for their fans and supporters. This song is a present for all of their fans for their love and support. Kim Hyung Jun also contribute in the composing of lyrics “Obsess”.
Kim Hyun Joong added “We shed off the “idol boyband” with our music, and turned into a mature man image.”
Not only from the music aspect, their image also attracted everyone’s sight. The day of releasing their album, their poster was publicized too, filling full of “beauty man” feel.
Park Jung Min said “In fact be it in music, dance and image, we have huge chances in everything. Its like an artist from the beginning to the end bringing a brand new side” (Sorry Green Peas, I don’t know what’s Mal talking about T_T)
In fact, till the released of this album, SS501 gone through lots of twists and turns.
Their hit song which had already finished recording happened to be a plagiarism causing SS501 to start their recording all over again. All members also agreed with this fact. In August, the members obtained the sound source from the overseas for their hit song, but during their process of recording, they discovered that the tune and melody that they listened previously was tune-reorganized from other songs.
Park Jung Min said “Because the melody kept changing, thus they feel strange about it. Then after they ended their Japan concert, on the way back to Korea on plane, they heard a song which sounds similar to their new song, and then they found out that the melody they listened in the first place is the song which had released in the States.”
That time SS501 have ended their recording of their hit song, but after finding out that it happens to be plagiarism, they have to start their recording all over again. Other than that Kim
Hyun Joong had paid $8000, 000 Won personally for the producing expenses. Fortunately, the money was being taken back.
Since they debuted, SS501 have never been deceived before, this time round they almost got involved in plagiarism.
