Brave Girls sit down for an interview
Hip hop girl group Brave Girls, produced by the famous Brave Brothers, recently gave an interview with Doday. The five members: Eunyoung, Yaejin. Seoah, Yoojin, and Hyeran all shared their thoughts on their newly released album, “The Difference.: The girls were asked about their title song, “Do You Know,” and described what kind of song it is. They replied, “It’s a slow R&B tempo song where a girl pours out her feelings after breaking up, and we think all the listeners will be able to listen to it comfortably. ‘Do You Know’ has a dance to it and it’s a good song so I hope a lot of people will listen to it.”
Check out the video and translations below:
The group was also asked on what advice and tips their producers, Brave Brothers, gave them. Brave Girls explained, “First, our president always tells us that songs are the most important thing for a singer and having manners is important as well. Even while we were trainees and after we debuted, we always remembered what our president told us, and because of that we’re able to approach our seniors more comfortably. Because we show our respect towards them, the seniors have been taking care of us very well.”
Through a video where the MR was removed, the Brave Girls have been called the “Terminators of Singing.” They revealed their secret for singing live, “When we’re practicing, we don’t only practice singing but we practice by dancing at the same time because we have to be able to sing live. Although we perform with a mic, we practice without it to improve our singing abilities and to build our confidence to perform on stage.”
They also revealed hardships while preparing for their album. Leader Eunyoung revealed, “While preparing for this album, there wasn’t any particular hardship, but when we were trainees, we had to be at the studio every single day so we didn’t have a day to rest and now that we’ve debuted, no matter how tight our schedule may be, we don’t feel tired or exhausted. We became used to the tired feeling we had when we were trainees, so now it doesn’t have an affect on us. I think that’s good.”
The girls explained their thoughts when going on stage for their first recording, expressing their nervousness. They said, “We were very busy, but at the same time we felt very excited. We were both nervous and excited.”
The girls were asked if there been a change after debuting into the entertainment industry. Eunyoung replied, “For me, there isn’t a specific difference from when I was a trainee. Now, we appear on shows and radios and the people around us would say, “Oh, it’s Brave Girls.” When I hear that, I feel thankful and surprised and because of that, I feel very proud.”
Another question came up regarding the plethora of girl group debuts and the members were asked what kind of uniqueness competing against girl groups with. They responded, “A lot of girl groups go for the sexy and powerful look. We do try to put that image on, but we have more of a feminine charm. That’s what we’re trying to show everyone. Also, rather than saying that we’re trying to compete against them, since they’ve gone through a lot just like us, I’m hoping that all of us can grow together.”
Eunyoung attends high school and is balancing her time in both school and the entertainment industry. She explained, “I am a bit tired, but because I attend an all girls high school, I learn things at school that I’m not able to learn at the agency. I’m more excited than tired when I go to school because I’m able to meet my friends and learn new things continuously.”
A picture of Eunyoung pitching at a baseball game has become an issue. She was asked if she specially trained for this and her secret to maintaining her body figure. She replied, “I practiced, while I was at home and when I went to the stadium, they helped me a lot. I was a bit disappointed because I think I could have done better. Next time, if I’m given another chance, I have prepared a version 2. With maintaining our figure, we’re controlling what we eat just like when we were trainees. Now we eat a bit more, but before we ate a lot of vegetables and sweet potatoes. We also exercised for at least an hour, even if we didn’t have time.”
Brave Girls revealed their goal for 2011, “Our goal is to let people know of Brave Girls and if we were to make our goal ahead of time, we would like to receive the rookie of the year award.”
The girls then concluded the interview with greetings to all their fans, “We’re planning on performing on stage continuously and we would like it if you listened to ‘Do You Know’ a lot. Although it hasn’t been long since Brave Girls came out, we’re working hard to show ourselves to you. We’re planning on coming out with another title song, ‘So Sexy,’ so please look forward to our future activities and please cheer us on. This has been Brave Girls.”
