[NEWS] MBLAQ on their fans, their individual goals, and how they resolve conflicts


For the second half of their TV Report interview, MBLAQ answered questions concerning their status as idols. As grateful as they are for fans and their support, the group spoke honestly about the difficulties they face because of their fans as well.

Mir said, “Our fans do everything they can for us. We’re very thankful for them and for anybody who even likes us at all.” He made sure to add, “But as grateful as we are, we hope that nobody will go to extremes like skipping school or waiting in the snow or rain because of us anymore.”
Lee Joon agreed, “There are fans who follow me around even when I’m out for personal business. They stop following me if I ask them to, but I feel sorry if I have to ask all the time.”
Thunder said, “It seems like there’s a separate family fandom for me and my sister, Sandara of 2NE1. We’re very thankful of course, but there are some fans who follow my mother and other sister around even though they aren’t celebrities.”

==

- “We’ll stay up all night to resolve any issues we have with each other.”
Conflicts are inevitable, but MBLAQ shared that their method of resolving issues with each other is simply to talk it out.

Leader Seungho noted, “We’re all adults and we have similar music styles so we don’t fight with each other often. When the occasional disagreement comes up, we talk about it and make sure to listen to the other person’s opinion. That’s how we work things out. But like I said, we don’t fight often. I could probably count all of the arguments we had on one hand alone. If we don’t have time in our schedules to talk about an issue during the day, we’d probably stay up all night in order to put it to rest.”

==

- “MBLAQ, a group with many different colors.”
MBLAQ doesn’t have as many solo activities as other idols these days. Lee Joon has taken steps as an actor, and G.O is now making appearances on KBS 2TV’s ‘Immortal Song 2‘; however, the other members are finally ready to make individual show appearances now as well.
“I wanted to go on variety shows too,” Seungho said. “I’m ready any time if anybody wants me on their show.” Although he’s currently taken some time off school, he’s enrolled as a film/arts major and so fans have been hoping for his debut as an actor. Unfortunately, he stated, “I don’t have any plans to act yet. I don’t think it’d be too late even if I went into acting after I hit my thirties, after MBLAQ has become successful.”

G.O has been receiving praise lately for his vocal abilities through ‘Immortal Song 2.’ He said, “I’m relieved that I was able to put my name out there through the show. Even though it’s been two years since MBLAQ’s debut, nobody recognized me as the main vocalist.”
Lee Joon demonstrated his acting potential through ‘Ninja Assassin‘ and ‘Jungle Fish 2‘, but humbly stated, “I still have a long ways to go in order to achieve perfection. I think I need to study and practice acting a lot more, but for now I want to focus on MBLAQ.”

==

-”We want to become a multi-talented group.”

Thunder and G.O are currently both writing and composing. Thunder said that he wants to release a solo album while emphasizing that he definitely still loves being in the group. “I want a solo album so that I can show my true music tastes, which differs slightly from that of MBLAQ. After “Mona Lisa” promotions, you never know. My self-composed tracks might erupt out of nowhere.” He also stated that he dreams of not only of releasing a solo album, but of trying out acting as well. It’s said that he decided upon his dream of being an entertainer after hearing Rain’s song, “It’s Raining“.
Lastly, Mir showed his affection for rapping with, “Although I wanted to participate in making the raps for this album, DOK2 is actually the one who wrote them all. He’s very talented so I was able to learn a lot from him while watching him work.” Mir also chose the underground rapper as his role model.

[NEWS] MBLAQ wants to establish their “trademark song” with latest mini-album


TV Report recently shared an interview with MBLAQ who released their newest mini-album, “Mona Lisa“, earlier this morning.

Back when they debuted in October of 2009, MBLAQ was mostly known for being Rain’s project idol group. Two mini-albums and one full album release later, members Seungho, G.O, Lee Joon, Thunder, and Mir were able to shed that label and prove that they possessed real talent.

The group humbly stated that although the name MBLAQ is now widely known, they have yet to release any real hit songs. With that, the group met with TV Report for their interview and shared their goal to promote a true hit with their new album.

==

- “We want to release a song that represents MBLAQ.”

From their unique album concept to a completely new music style, MBLAQ has finally returned with their third mini-album, “Mona Lisa.”

Leader Seungho said, “After monitoring our progress, we’ve realized that only our fans really knew our songs while the general population still can’t recognize most of our title tracks. As such, we’ve chosen a track this time that we hope people of all ages will enjoy and remember.”

Mir added, “When you say 2PM, you think ‘beastly idols’. MBLAQ still doesn’t have a set image like that, nor do we have any notable hit tracks. We hope that we can find our group’s unique image with this promotion.”

Main vocalist G.O said, “It’s the greatest flaw for a singer not to have a trademark song. As pop singers, our goal is to be recognized by any and all people by our music alone.” He reiterated, “We need to make this album the one that finally sets us apart.”

==

- “B2ST as our rivals? Of course we’re jealous.”

MBLAQ and B2ST debuted only one day apart from each other back in October 2009, and have been labeled as rivals since the beginning. Seungho candidly revealed, “B2ST definitely does a lot of things better than we do. We’re human so of course we get a little jealous when B2ST does well, but that’s what makes us work even harder.”

He added, “We always support B2ST’s successes and make sure to congratulate them when something goes well.”

G.O said, “It’s true that the main reason our two groups get compared a lot is because of our debut dates, but we don’t think of it as a competition that we need to win. We just want to make good music.”

==

- “Created by Rain? We weren’t worried at first.”

Although they’re under different management now, MBLAQ was formed under Rain’s direct supervision. Since it was also Rain’s first time with production, it seems that he and the group both felt the pressure.

Seungho noted, “A lot of people paid attention to us because we were created under Rain’s name. Even though everyone thinks we probably felt pressured by that, we didn’t really understand what it meant at the time of our debut. More than anything, we thought of it casually, but we’re starting to understand now why it was such a big deal, since any of our actions would be a reflection of Rain-hyung himself.” He concluded, “We work extra hard now and will continue to grow because of that.”

==

- “MBLAQ, leader of the next Hallyu wave.”

MBLAQ took their first international steps to Japan in May with their single album, ‘Your Luv‘, which placed first in the Oricon chart. Member Lee Joon commented, “We only promoted there for a month, but surprisingly we received a lot of love. We were very grateful.”

The group is popular not only in Japan, but also all over Asia as well. Thunder, who was revealed to be the younger brother of 2NE1’s Sandara, is especially popular in the Philippines where he grew up. Just like how 2PM’s Nichkhun is considered the ‘prince of Thailand’, it seems that Thunder has come to be the ‘prince of the Philippine’s. He said, “Our entertainment company hasn’t said anything about an official debut over there, but we will continue to promote and perform there occasionally. We want our music to be heard everywhere.”

==

- “First solo concert within two years of debut.”

MBLAQ will be holding their first solo concert next month and are preparing to show fans a whole new side to themselves. Lee Joon laughed, “Our manager told us not to expect any sleep for the next month, so we hope everyone is looking forward to a spectacular concert with us.”

Mir added, “We’re each preparing solo stages that fans will be surprised to see.” Member G.O will be revealing a solo track for the first time at the concert. Seungho and Thunder are, of course, busy preparing their own stages for the show as well.

With all their humble charms, good looks and musical talent, MBLAQ continues to capture more and more hearts. Keep an eye on the group’s progress by following their upcoming performances for “Mona Lisa”!
