Akdong Musician (AKMU) tops 9 charts and proves themselves in the music world!

[OSEN=박현민 기자] The power of the sibling duo AKDONG MUSICIAN (AKMU) has proved itself in the music world. Their title song “200%” topped major real-time music charts while other tracks also filled the ranking lists.

“200%,” which was unveiled at noon of April 7, seized the top rank in 9 major music sites including Melon, Mnet.com, Bugs, Olleh Music, Soribada and Genie just 2 hours after its release. The song is a runner-up on Cyworld Music, geared to knock down the 10th chart.

Other songs in the album like “MELTED” (another title song), “GIVE LOVE,” “ARTIFICIAL GRASS,” “ON THE SUBWAY,” “HAIR PART,” “LITTLE STAR,” “DON’T HATE ME,” “ANYWAY,” “GALAXY” and “IDEA” are also ranked in the top range: a powerful accomplishment that only a very limited number of artists can achieve.

“200%,” one of the triple title songs of AKMU’s debut album, is a vivacious and rhythmical love song that very wittily talks about being too nervous to say anything in front of a person you love after preparing a love confession all night. It’s a sentiment unique to AKMU. Classy rapping and LEE SOO HYUN’s refreshing voice harmonizes perfectly.

In the song’s music video that was unveiled at 0 hour of the same day, LEE SOO HYUN tries out acting by playing the main character. Filmed in Japan’s Okinawa where the scent of spring is prominent amongst the greenery, LEE SOO HYUN endearingly plays a role of a naïve girl who is eager to confess her love to a boy.

Related personnel said, “LEE SOO HYUN’s acting was unexpectedly well done, so we breezed through without retakes.” South Korea’s recently rising model NAM JOO HYUK plays the handsome boy, showing good harmony with LEE SOO HYUN.

Directed YONG IH, the music video portrays the naivety of a girl expressing her love for a boy who is already taken through folding love hearts with colored paper. The first part of the clip shows the girl imagining happy thoughts about the boy, while the latter brings a twist where she realizes the love is unrequited.

Akdong Musician following after LEEHI and gaining great success! AKMU takes No. 1 on 9 music charts and iTunes album charts in 5 countries.

[OSEN=선미경 기자] YG Entertainment’s AKDONG MUSICIAN(AKMU) has hit the executive home run following LEEHI.

AKMU and LEEHI met YG in SBS “I LOVE SUNDAY”’s survival audition show “K-POP STAR”. LEEHI was the runner-up of the season 1 of the show, and AKMU was the winner of the season 2. After appearing in the audition, they joined YG Family.

Those young artists are gaining success, making their debut album a great hit. LEEHI made her official debut before AKMU and she is known as the most outstanding singer produced from “K-POP STAR”. Now, AKMU is following LEEHI’s footsteps, creating sensation and receiving rave review for their music.

LEEHI met YANG HYUN SUK, when she competed in the season 1 of “K-POP STAR” in 2012. At that time, she won high praises from judges, for her uniquely appealing and soulful vocal, which was rather unexpected for such a young girl.

After taking the second place in “K-POP STAR 1”, LEEHI officially debuted through YG and every song she has released so far took a top place in music charts. Her debut song “1,2,3,4” swept the music scene for three weeks, taking the No.1 of all the music charts and music shows in Korea by the storm. Then, “It’S OVER”, one of the double title tracks of her first solo album, also succeeded in sweeping the charts, which made LEEHI be called a “monster rookie”. Then, “ROSE” released in March last year also swept charts within three hours from its release, living up to the high expectations for LEEHI.

AKMU is also creating sensation, after disclosing their debut album “PLAY” at noon on the 7 this month. AKMU took the No.1 of nine music charts including Korea’s biggest music website Melon, Bugs, and Soribada, within two hours from the release of the music. Plus, all the songs included in the album are placed in top places on charts. Such an achievement is all the more meaningful, since all the songs in the album were written by LEE CHAN HYUK. AKMU’s uniquely healthy and innocent music is catching the ears of listeners.

AKMU is creating sensation not only in Korea but also in foreign countries. After releasing their debut album, AKMU has taken the No.1 of iTunes album chart in five countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Singapore.

Meanwhile, AKMU is giving a live performance titled “AKMU PLAY IN CAFE” through NAVER Music, in the afternoon on the 9 at a café located in Seoul.
