CHAEYEON: A first comeback for the “queen performance”

It is with a dynamic title that CHAEYEON shines on stage, dancing with enthusiasm alongside dancers accompanying him, then the associated clip is broadcast, all in color and with some allusions to his vampiric universe. We see her evolve in a house, a school, a stadium, and even in a snowy universe.

She was also worried about the part of the song where she says “knock”, wondering how to represent this word in the choreography without it being too ridiculous, but was relieved that the choreographer had found a dance that suited her as well, pointing out that the key moment of the choreography is to “knocking” five times, then pointing at the ground, “knocking” twice again, and firing a weapon represented by her hands. She also says that after hearing the song for the first time, the chorus immediately stuck in her head, and she even hummed it while taking a shower.

It’s hard to talk about CHAEYEON without talking about his previous career as a member of the popular group IZ*ONE. A journalist then asks about the different style she adopts in solo, and the artist answers with pride that she wanted to give herself challenges by dealing with different subjects and concepts, although she lost fans when his group disbanded. However, she says she hopes to receive a lot of love in her career.

For her very first solo album, marking her debut after IZ*ONE, she wondered a lot about what concept she should adopt to make an impression and draw attention to her performances, a word she underlines several times throughout the showcase. She thus chose a concept that would allow her to highlight her qualities as a dancer above all. For this second album, she took into account a lot of feedback she received, stating that her goal for this comeback is to reach the Top 100 in the music charts, while remaining healthy and happy for this new promotional period.

CHAEYEON also declares with confidence that she did not experience any particular difficulty during the preparation of this concept since she says that she memorized the title song in one day, for example. She focused more on her facial expressions to show off her charms during performances. Despite everything, she repeats that she trained hard. She then expresses her concept using the key words “day” and “night”, showing two facets of her musical imprint. This is why this album has two versions.

Finally, when a reporter asks her if her sister, CHAERYEONG from ITZY is supporting her, CHAEYEON replies, “Last time she said to me, ‘Don’t be nervous, you have a lot of performances coming up, so be confident.” , and she wrote a really long reply. This time, she just said, “It’s addicting.” A fancy reply!

Before concluding this showcase, CHAEYEON offers a second performance: “I don’t wanna know“, to journalists. The genre is very experimental and electronic, and far from the colorful atmosphere of “Knock”. The rhythm is more lively, but may not please everyone. She then thanks the journalists, and all those showing interest in her solo career in the future, and this is how the showcase ends, when the singer leaves the stage.

The words of our reporter: “Song having me more amazement, which I add in my playlist! The second performance was also unexpected but a good surprise.”
