意外地，这首歌在teaser阶段时，比主打歌更吸引我（嘛……我向来走的不是大众口味路线）。但是甚至抱着iPod坐在Arndt Building里或Manning Clark Centre里，只要有空，哪怕是短短的10分钟等待上课，我都会上Youtube去听这首歌。那时候仅仅58秒的歌也能让我开心……呵呵……
Can't believe it's already December!!! Another 31 days before we bid year 2010 goodbye.
The last month of the year always reminds us of holidays, year-end wrap up, next year's planning, in some countries, even tax time!! Hahaha.. Of course, there's one celebration, not only by Christians but simply everyone who knows about it --- CHRISTMAS!!
I won't deny that it has been too commercialised in the recent decades, but undoubtly, it's a time to give thanks and to share your love. Let others who are less fortunate to feel your warmth.
As for those staying in the Northern Hemisphere, scarf and boots time! =)
*I'm amazed with myself to come up with such a long prelude*
Never thought I'd like JYP (full name Park JinYoung) so much (although I have to admit that I did lose some love for him when I knew he divorced with his wife of 10 years).
Being one of the top 3 entertainment company, JYPE has melted the hearts of all audiences at different times, from g.o.d to Wonder Girls, and now OneDay (2AM+ 2PM) and Miss A. Even JYP himself is a great entertainer, producer, CEO etc..
After SME named the artists performing in their annual concert "SMTown" and later having YGE dubbed as "YGFamily", I'm as pleased as the other fans that finally JYPE are calling themselves "JYPNation".
To start off their promotion for the first ever JYP Nation's concert (and also just in time for Christmas), they released a digital single called "This Christmas" just yesterday.
Let's check out the special clip of short introduction first:
and then the real song itself:
I hear people calling for an MV. Hahahaha.. trust me, you are not the only one. Everyone is hoping that~
To end this post, let's look at some of the photoshoot for this special event:
They are not called the "pioneer line" for no reasons. Well, let's exclude JYP (2nd from the left, the father of the kids, JoonHyung from g.o.d is the only artist who is older than him -- but then, the company's name hasn't change to JYPE yet) who started JYPE himself, the other 4 had trained under this label for at least 7 years before debut.
Jo Kwon (rightmost) said once on a show that he even witnessed the hanging up of the company's label.
The three girls are (from left): Lim Jeong Hee or J.Lim, Min (Miss A) and SunYe (Wonder Girls)
As the name "vocalist line" suggests, these people have great vocal skills and are considered the main vocals of their groups respectively. As for the solo artist, you can expect her to deliver goosebumps with her songs.
From left: JunSu (2PM), YeEun (Wonder Girls), JOO and ChangMin (2AM)
As you can guess from the bubbly looks, "maknae line" gathers all the youngest members (according to year of birth) of the teams. They are responsible for the cute role in the team and everyone looks on with a fatherly/motherly/uncle/aunty/elder brother/elder sister smile as these kids grow up. Note though, not all maknaes in JYPE need to be super uber cute (since the guys are too beastly and the girls are chic) or the one to boost popularity, but yeah, looking at their faces, won't you just feel like pinching their cheecks and scream : "omo!! cuteeeeee~" (okay, I might be exaggerating)
From left to right, clockwise: JinWoon (2AM), ChangSung (2PM), HyeRim (Wonder Girls), Suzy (Miss A), and SoHee (Wonder Girls)
When this photo is revealed, the concept is not revealed as well, so fans have to guess. Quite a few came up with a reasonable answer: "sub-vocalist line". All four having good singing skills too but since there's only one spot for main vocalist, they are more of the ones to richen the vocals.
I personally, however, like a random guess from one of the netizens : "entertainment line". These four are doing pretty well on variety shows with either their ssanti dance, split kungfu, ahjibae talking style or athletic skills. Either way, they made our days without failure (laughing to tears or wow-ed doesn't matter).
From left to right (count the heads): WooYoung (2PM), Fei (Miss A), SeulOng (2AM) and JunHo (2PM)
And lastly, it's the... yet another concept-not-revealed photo. But it's pretty obvious -- the "rapper line"!! All five are rappers, but San E (the guy in the middle who has a weird smile, I feel sorry people said that, because I'm sure he's not used to this) is a professional underground rapper before joining JYPE. So you can say that he's widely respected as a real rapper. As for the other four, it's not that they can't rap, it's just that being part of the group means you are merely playing a role and it's kind of unfair to say that those who can't sing are "thrown" to the rapper's position. I would say that everyone has their own talent and they suit the rapper position a lot!
From left to right: TaecYeon (2PM), Yubin (Wonder Girls), Jia (Miss A) and NichKhun (2PM)
Have a nice day listening to the new song =)
ps: photo and comment from allkpop.com
And so.. obviously, JYP knows what we are thinking. The full MV is released today. I know you are going scream with me XDDD I also wondered who is the one who holds the camera all the time, but judging from everyone's expressions (that includes the staffs), I'm guessing quite a few get to hold it in turns.
All my decriptions up there fits in the MV =)
Yes, I'm going to end the blog with yet another photo.
ps: our guess for the 5th picture is confirmed by NichKhun on Twitter. yay! i'm stalking following the artists on the social website now.
