The original sexy-dol’s quintessence. Global-dol MBLAQ, captivates the global fans! From dark, smokey faces to sweet smiles, MBLAQ the possessors of thousands faces have met COK during their busy world tour schedule.
G.O: “It’s been a year and six month since our last performance. We could say that the music this time, is a bit different than the ones before. If our music in the past were powerful and majestic, the song called “Smoky Girl” in this mini album is rather effective?”
Joon: “‘Smoky Girl’ can perhaps be translated as ‘restrained sexiness’. Should we say, we tried expressing the hidden, potential sexiness in a person bit by bit? Haha… if you look at our outfits, they are see-through. We were thankful to our fans for calling us ‘critical sexiness’. We were glad they took in our intentions.”
Mir: “We wanted to show not only a transforming/developing MBLAQ, but also a dynamic MBLAQ as well. We were able to create a perfect album, thanks to collaborating with the hottest producers these days, Primary and Amoeba Culture’s Zion T. Personally, we are very satisfied with this album. At first we were actually worried if the fans will like the music or not, but since it’s loved by many, we are more than glad.”
Mir: “I am the typical ‘library type’ of person. I have to write down the lyrics right away after listening to a song. That produces better lyrics.”
Thunder: “I am inspired by listening to masterpieces. If my production does not flow smoothly, I take the day off. I wait until that inspiration comes back and then go to work again.”
Seungho: “For albums ‘Sexy Beat’, ‘Love Beat’ and others as well, we are all engaged in composing the songs and lyrics. Although it is a stressful job, we enjoy doing it. And of course, we have so much more to learn. We have to put inmore effor to produce better songs.”
G.O: “I tend to produce music better when I am sentimental. Then I can concentrate better. I want to try producing a R&B song with the theme ‘things good to have in mind when you are in love’.”
Thunder has confessed that he wants to try many(?) things that he has never done in the past. He has promised us that he will reveal his challenge in the next interview with COK.
MBLAQ: “We have performed on a stage that would never be forgotten. We have truly felt the meaning of ‘passion’. Although we have performed in front of tens and thousands of people in the past, this concert gave is the true meaning of ‘heat’.
As soon as we appared on stage and the musics went on, we could not hear our own MR. That was because the shouts from the crowd was absolutely powerful. After the concert, we suffered from sore throats for over a month. We believe we were also excited and also shouted unintentionally. It just ives us the goosebumps thinking about it again.”

We, as performers, were excited as well after the concert was over, we were excited again to hear the people complimenting about our performance. However, we are regretful for not being able to meet much more forans. We were also very sorry to heart that some could not attend the concert because the tickets were out.

We want to visit as many countries as we can to meet with out fans all over the world. But of course, we have to meet with our South Korea fans as well~ Although the exact dates are not confirmed yet, we will be announcing some good news shortly.”
