Composer Cho Young Soo and Pocketdol Studio CEO Kim Kwang Soo will once again work on a new mid-tempo song.
“Kim Kwang Soo will release mid-tempo music in collaboration with Cho Young Soo. This is the first mid-tempo song in 13 years since SG Wannabe, SeeYa and Davichi.” his agency announced today.
According to Pocketdol Studio, the song is similar to SG Wannabe’s “Duet With 옥주현“, released in 2007. BAE173’s J-Min and Youngseo, Class:y’s Boeun and Jimin, and Fantasy Boys’ Ling Qi will participate in vocals.
Previously, “A midsummer midnight dream“, composed by Cho Young Soo, was highly praised for its British-style mid-tempo song at the time of its release. After “A midsummer midnight dream“, which brought comfort with lyrical lyrics and warm melodies, attention focuses on the type of “well-being” that the new song with the vocals of BAE173 members, CLASS:y and FANTASY BOYS will offer.
CEO Kim Kwang Soo is famous for producing many stars, including SG Wannabe, SeeYa, Davichi and T-ara. Kim Kwang Soo, known as the “Hand of Midas” in the entertainment industry, marked a milestone in the music industry by producing Jo Sumi’s “If I leave.” Recently, he was appointed head of the entertainment division of Hallyu Holdings, announcing a new project “Hope is a warking dream“.
Cho Young Soo composed various hit songs such as “La La La“, “Arirang”, “Partner for life“, “Craze” by SG Wanabe, “Lovely sweet heart”, “Crazy love song“, “Hateful” by SeeYa, “Stand still” by Kim Jong Kook, “여보야” by M to M, “Love and war” by Davichi, “Lie” by T-ara, … In addition, Cho Young Soo released his own project The album “All Star“, in which Kim Kwang Soo, participated as a co-producer, made headlines.
The two continued the history of mid-tempo music in Korea by working together on songs by artists such as SG Wannabe, SeeYa and Davichi. In particular, MSG Wannabe and WSG Wannabe (Gaya G), who were trained on the show “How do you play?” from MBC once performed songs with this tempo, sparking old nostalgia among the audience and sparking interest in the genre.
Among them, Cho Young Soo was very popular last year with a mid-tempo song that expressed the excitement of finding love by producing WSG Wannabe’s “결국엔 너에게 닿아서 (To you)“.
The beautiful harmony of the members of BAE173, CLASS:y and FANTASY BOYS should also be another point of appreciation, with the anticipation of the music of Cho Young Soo and CEO Kim Kwang Soo, who created a mid-tempo boom since the 2000s, will surprise everyone this time.
