[Entertainment] A girl eventually becomes a king

After winning the newcomer award in the female category of the Golden Disc Awards, the company took the opportunity to officially release ioi's farewell single "Shower".

The fans hadn't recovered from the joy of winning the award, and they were caught off guard by this song.

"shower"

……

Stop here

Do you all stop?

The rain is also good

my tears are fine

wet from the rain

i don't want to be cold

really at some point

The once cold rain

will turn into warm tears

let it flow

It doesn't matter

It's just a shower that's going to pass soon, right?

The lyrics compare the pain of parting to a short shower in summer. Although it is painful, there will always be a day in the past.

The melody of the song is not ear-catching, but with the MV, the full of true feelings almost overflow the screen.The sadness of parting, the longing for the future, and the expectation of reunion, the members' complex emotions are contained in this simple song.

On the occasion of ioi's parting, sending out such a farewell song is simply a tearjerker,

The moment the fans heard the song, they really felt that the 11 girls who accompanied them all summer were really going to go in different directions and start their own life trajectories.

As soon as the sound source of the song was released, the song at the top of the list was abruptly squeezed out.Without playing a song, and without any publicity, "Shower" still won a first place thanks to the votes of fans and passers-by.

——On January 1, ioi released the farewell commemorative single "Shower".

——On January 1, ioi won the Newcomer Award at the 19th Seoul Music Awards;

Captain Na Rong once choked up when he delivered his acceptance speech, and broke down emotionally in front of fans for the first time.

This gold-rich rookie award is the last time ioi won an award, and it is also the last gift given to them by fans.

——On January 1th, ioi held the "Timeslip-IOI" concert at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul, South Korea for three consecutive days.

Eleven people stood on the stage, weeping and singing the last song, everyone couldn't restrain their sobs.

Song Anran held back tears, controlled her voice, and sang the high-pitched part: "Stay in the shower, and our sad tears will not be seen by you."

The fans shouted with all their strength: "We will see you now!"

This is the only line of support in this song, and it is also their last line.

Song Anran covered her face and couldn't help crying anymore.

So far, it's all stopped.

——On January 1, the ioi group officially disbanded.

So far, all official websites and accounts of ioi have been abolished, and the members have returned to their companies to start activities with new identities, and ioi no longer exists.

From birth to disintegration, they shined for a total of 370 days as members of ioi.

**

On the second day of the farewell concert, Song Anran returned to the company with swollen eyes.

Discuss the contract share, plan the concept of the new album, discuss the content of the album...

Although ioi is disbanded, life goes on.

Even busier.

The night before leaving the dormitory, Song Anran packed up her own things in a low mood.

I don't know who made the first sob, and then everyone's emotions began to collapse. Song Anran wiped away tears while folding clothes.

When Jieqiong was packing up, she found a piece of clothing that didn't belong to her. Holding up her shirt, she asked in a nasal voice, "Whose clothing is this?"

Teruya, who was also crying, answered intermittently: "It's mine."

After living together for so long, many things are shared, and when it comes time to separate, these things are difficult to deal with.

After packing their luggage, the members spontaneously got together.

Chatting about the past, chatting about the future, spending the last night crying and laughing.

After disbanding, Song Anran really entered hell mode.

The company decided to take advantage of the popularity of ioi, immediately arrange for Song Anran to debut next month, and release the first EP, which contains five songs.

It is not difficult to see Jin Shihuan's ambition through this plan.

When the record market is depressed, every singer is more cautious when releasing an album. If there is no guarantee that the contribution and return of the album can be proportional, most companies will not take the risk to release an album.

What's more, it's a small company like CQ with no foundation and no background.

But Jin Shihuan insisted on carrying all the pressure to make this decision. On the one hand, he was making a bold game. Anyway, he is a newcomer. If he fails, he can start all over again.

Another aspect is to have confidence in Song Anran. With her strength and the songs she wrote, they definitely have the potential to explode.

All five songs of the EP have been finalized, and three of them were confirmed during her ioi activities.All of them were works handed in by her during her training period. After being revised by the teacher, they are already very mature pieces.

There are two more songs, one is a song that the teacher wrote for her after watching the 101 program, this song is like a shadow, vividly showing all of Song Anran's mental journey.

She fell in love with this song at first sight, and she fell in love with it the first time she heard it. She is going to play and sing on the comeback stage as a little easter egg.

The last title song is the one she sent to Jin Shihuan as a surprise before, and its name is "Poems for You".

Song Anran hid some careful thoughts when choosing the name. There may be nothing special about this song just by listening to the title, but when it comes to the stage, if the host introduces affectionately:

"The following song is a poem dedicated to you by Song Anran"

Isn't it great?

Anyway, just thinking about this picture made her very excited!

Well, despite her puffy eyes, she is actually very excited.

"A Poem for You" is a song she wrote after going to the jungle, and part of her inspiration came from her own life in the jungle.

She used the brisk gayageum as the prelude to the song, and then used the traditional Korean instrument, Daegeum, as the harmony of the whole song.

Daji's timbre has a melancholic temperament, and the melody he plays is sad but not sad, and as the harmony that runs through the whole song, it will not overwhelm the audience, which is very suitable for this song.

Finally, she added a fierce pipa sound to the climax, bringing the mood of the whole song deeper.

Generally speaking, this song is quite non-mainstream for the current Korean music circle.

She made such an attempt for the first time, and she was also very worried about whether her arrangement would be accepted by others.

All the instrumental harmonies in this song were played by her herself, and then she recorded a noise-free version for secondary synthesis of the background harmonies.In this way, the harmony between the instruments will be a little higher.

This song can be said to have consumed most of her hard work, and the attention received by the other four songs is far inferior to this one.

After all, tradition is something that cannot be easily touched.

If you are determined to innovate and do not make it impeccable, the audience will not buy it.

So far, though, the feedback she's gotten has been good.

Those who have listened to this song so far include my president and vocal teacher, both of whom have a high opinion of this song.

When Jin Shihuan heard this song, his cheekbones almost rose to the sky. He listened to it several times, and finally suppressed the excitement in his heart, and tremblingly sent a text message to Song Anran,

[To An Ran: The arrangement still needs to change some details, everything else is fine.An Ran, you are really a treasure, a treasure, do it well, this song will definitely be a hit. 】

Of course, it was this song that gave Jin Shihuan the confidence to choose to give it a go.

[To be honest, my daughter is so good, there's no reason why she shouldn't be popular. 】

【Don't worry about whether I take the risk or not, just say whether the song is good or not and that's it. 】

In the next two weeks, Song Anran began to record her new song non-stop, and made the final revisions to the title song.

Jin Shihuan specifically explained that the lyrics, composition and arrangement of this song can only be passed through her hands.That is to say, in "Poems for You", only Song Anran's name will be written in all the places in the lyrics column, composition column, arrangement column, and singing column.

Only in this way can the audience understand Song Anran's talent to the greatest extent.

In the studio:

Song Anran closed her eyes, her thick eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a beautiful arc under the eyelids.

Wearing big headphones, she was immersed in the beautiful prelude of gayageum.

When the last dial fell, she opened her lips slightly:

"I will cut off the long winter solstice,

In the middle of the night, easily spread out to accompany you to sleep.

if you open the window

see the stars

that's me into my heart

cut it into a bright moon

high night sky

I want to give you this starry sky

but empty hands

can only look forward to

The moonlight also shines in front of your window tonight

relieve my lovesickness"

As soon as Song Anran's voice sounded, the tuner on the other side of the glass was immediately amazed.

Her voice is melodious and melodious, and it is a kind of listening pleasure when she speaks.

If the emotional tone of the whole song is sorrow, then her voice is sweet sadness.

The innocence and girlish feelings that make people can't help but smile, collide with the sad and heavy tune, making people sweet and sad.

After debut, Song Anran's growth is obvious.

The bass region, which was not very stable, can no longer hear any problems, and the treble is as clean and clear as ever.The important thing is that the control of the sound is now more comfortable.

If it was a raw stone that was just showing its edge before, it has grown into a general.

After the music stopped, Song Anran took off the earphones and nervously looked at the tuner behind the glass.

He stared at Song Anran for a while, then gave a thumbs up without hesitation, and praised: "Perfect."

Originally, when CQ booked their recording studio, he thought it was another idol who would sing some mouth-watering songs.

When he saw Song Anran's face, he confirmed his previous guess in his heart.

Who knew that a company that didn't even have a high-end recording studio would have music and talents of this quality.

Sure enough, don't bully the young and poor.

"Try singing again and see if it can be better."

A treasure was found by accident.

The tone of the tuner was a little excited.

Song Anran put on the earphones, and obediently responded, "Inside."

With the high interest of the tuner, Song Anran recorded five times before finishing the recording of the dry sound.
