- SUNMI, how do you feel
about number one on the eight charts? "Thank you for your trust and love,
I'll make you good music."
Singer SUNMI showed off her potential as a leading female solo artist in South Korea by "perfecting" music sites upon her comeback.
SUNMI topped a total of eight charts,
including Melon, Genie, Bugs, Mnet, Naver Music, Olleh, Monkey3, Soribada, as
of 8 a.m. on Aug. 28.
The new single "LALALAY,"
released at 6 p.m. on Aug. 27, entered the top tier as soon as it was released
and succeeded in making eight music charts "Chartolky" four hours
after its release. Half a day after its release, it still remains the No. 1
music site. With this, SUNMI has proved its strong music power by leading five
consecutive hits, starting with "Gashina," "Siren,"
"Noir" and "Nalari."
SUNMI said through its agency Makers
Entertainment, "I don't know how this kind of gratitude happens. "I
think we've had a good result, thanks to the people who trust me and love
me," she said. "I'll repay you with music. I will make better music
and play it for you in the future."
SUNMI is receiving explosive attention not
only for its music video but also for its music video. Experts say that SUNMI's
natural facial expressions, charismatic military dance, and its spectacular
visual beauty make her eyes go away.
The new song "LALALAY" was
inspired by SUNMI during its tour at North America and Mexico in March. The
song "LALALAY" is a mix of Korea's own Vibe, with lyrics that are
impressive over the exotic sound of Dance-hall and Latin-style leading the
whole song.
Taepyeongso is a special instrument that
makes different sounds depending on the player. Sunmi, who finds out the song's
identity in Taepyeongso, where the sound itself becomes a signature depending
on the performer and the presence that dominates all other instruments with a
small body, has chosen the title as "LALALAY," a different term for
Taepyeongso. The lyrics of "I Am Naughty," "Captain," and
"Flying," are another term that calls for "Tae Pyong-so,"
and added to its unique charm.
