Four popular Korean solo singers -- Rain, Seven, Hyo-ri, and BoA -- will come back to the Korean pop scene. Netizens call them the representative singers for Korean pop in the 2000s, and they are overjoyed at their return. Rain and Hyo-ri will come back after breaks of 18 months and 20 months, respectively. Seven and Boa, who have focused on the American music industry up to now, return to the Korean music scene after breaks of three years and five years, respectively. The return of these famous solo singers is drawing people’s attention because girls groups and new idol groups gained popularity last year.
In addition, Rain will release a mini album containing 4 or 5 songs in late April. He did not record a new album because he played the protagonist in his first Hollywood film, “Ninja Assassin,” and helped the group Mblaq debut in 2009. His agency, J Tune Entertainment, said, “We have already recorded some songs, but we are still in the process of collecting better songs from songwriters. We will release Rain’s regular album this October.”
Seven is currently recording his new album and will release it in the first half of the year. He is recording songs written by songwriters from YG Entertainment, but he plans to continue the recording process until he is fully satisfied with the results.
Boa plans to release her new album on August 25, the date on which she released her first album 10 years ago. Her agency, SM Entertainment, said they have been discussing the style of the new album because Boa released records in Japan and the U.S. since she released her fifth album “Girls on Top” in 2005.
Music industry officials are expecting that the four solo singers could set a new music trend in the Korean pop music scene because girl groups and idol groups have been continuously gaining popularity early this year as well as last year. A representative of an entertainment agency said, “It has not been easy for solo singers to succeed in the Korean pop industry. I am wondering if the four solo singers will succeed or not. If they succeed in the Korean pop industry at this time, entertainment agencies will pay attention to experienced and capable singers more than they do now."
In addition, an official at a performance agency said, “We don’t know about the music style of their new albums yet, but their music will provide the Korean pop music scene, which features electronic dance music, with diversity and change.” He added, “We highly anticipate the new performances of Rain, Boa, and Seven, who have performed on major stages in Asia. Furthermore, Eru, Sung Si-kyung, and Eric will leave the army from May to October, after Kangta was discharged from military last month. Their comebacks are also drawing people’s attention." Eru and Sung’s agency said, “They plan to make a comeback this year.”
YG, “Se7en will be coming back with new music”
What kind of music will singer Se7en comeback with this earlier half of the year?
This will be Se7en’s comeback after being away from the Kpop scene for a long time when he started preparations for his American debut in 2006, and his comeback album will be released in around May-June.
YG Entertainment representative Yang HyunSeok has also gave the promise, “He will not be doing the usual style but will be back showing a new image and with new music.”
A YG rep said on 4th March, “In order to present good music, we are currently workig on the recordings works after receiving many songs from many composers.”
Of course when asked about the musicians who will participate in this new album, the rep did not reveal much for now. But it was stated, “We are anticipating the album because Se7en will be coming back with new music in this earlier half of the year where other singers like Lee Hyori and Son DamBi are also having their comeback.”
