SHINee's "Dazzling Girl" album details!



Dazzling Girl is a piano and techno pop song with a simple and fresh melody. Just like its song title, this song represents that heart-beating moment when meeting and falling on love with a dazzling lady.

The MV's choreography is also cute and exquisite which is similar to Audrey Hepburn's My Fair Lady. The MV storyline narrates a girl whom because of SHINee transforms into a dazzling girl.

The production crew whom participated in this song are quite well-known. Jeff Miyahara did the recording production; Grammy winner Miles Walker whom has worked with Beyonce, did the mixing; world famous Tom Coyne (Sterling Sound) also participated in producing the main single.

SHINee's detailed and equisite choreography in the MV is choreographed by S**t Kingz whom has won Body Rock (a very prestigious hip hop dance competiton in San Diego) twice in a row (2010 and 2011).

The CD's packaging and MV's outfits, hairstyles are by world acclaimed fashion designer Keita Maruyama. The TV advertisement and CM etc will be produced by the currently active Noboru Tomizawa. Both have also participated in the wardrobe and makeup in the movie "Helter Skelter" starring Sawajiri Erika, will participate in this project and showcase a side of SHINee never seen before.

Stylist Yuki Wantanabe whom has worked with Keita Maruyama for his fashion show has also been roped in. Japan's top active creators are gathered together for SHINee which notched up the glamour factor to the new single.

The packaging for the limited editon (Type A) is in the form of a "clutch bag" which is super glamourous, a first in the music industry world. This is a first unique attempt by SHINee whom has always been contemporary not only in music and dance but also in setting fashion trends.

SHINee has also let the whole of Japan felt their charms with their nation-wide [THE FIRST ARENA TOUR "SHINee WORLD 2012"] (20 concerts in 7 prefectures) since early April this year.

Their 2012 first single "Sherlock" released on 16 May has reached No. 2 on Oricon chart and with their 4 singles being in the top 3 since their debut, this has also let one have higher expectations on their new single "Dazzling Girl".

It turns out that as a side affect, Tae Joon will kiss anyone, even someone he has seen for the first time, if he drinks even just a sip of alcohol.
When Jae Hee found Tae Joon, he was already drunk and swaying from side to side. Jae Hee was happy to find Tae Joon but Tae Joon returned her excitement with a mysterious look in his eyes.

KARA’s comeback song accidentally leaked on KBS’s ‘Kiss the Radio’


Less than a week away from their comeback, KARA suffered an unfortunate accident on a KBS radio program that prematurely leaked their new song.
On the August 16th broadcast of KBS 2FM’s ‘Super Junior’s Kiss the Radio‘, KARA’s unreleased song was aired prematurely without permission. Through their official Twitter, officials of the radio program stated, “KARA’s unreleased song was aired today. It is the fault of the person that chose the song without checking whether the album had been released yet, as they had only checked to see that it had passed KBS regulations. We ask that the listeners of ‘Sukira’ please not share the day’s recordings.”
PD Jung Hyun Jae additionally wrote on the program’s message board, “I am the person that chose the song, and I would like to apologize to KARA, their representatives, and their fans for causing this ordeal. I am completely at fault for not checking the release date for the song. I cannot express how sorry I am at the thought of them worrying over the song’s leak. I will make sure that this does not happen again. Should I discover a personal recording being shared, I will work to see that it does not get out any further.”
At the moment, the program’s official homepage has ceased its replay service and edited out their list of songs viewers are able to request. Unfortunately, with the song already leaked, there isn’t much else they can do to fix the matter.
A representative of DSP Entertainment expressed, “The water’s already been spilled and there’s nothing we can do now, which makes it all the more upsetting. To prevent this from happening again, we need better security measures but there aren’t policies in place to make it happen.”
Netizens commented, “This is not something that an apology can fix”, “The KARA members must be so upset”, and “How irresponsible”.
Regardless of the hiccup, stay tuned for the release of KARA’s fifth mini-album ‘Pandora‘ on August 22nd.
