February’s Self-Marketed Comebacks

201402261120770571_530d5024969b5_59_20140226112904-jpg

The Korean music industry of today is based on self-marketing. With artists alerting their fans of their comeback through social networking services, they are attempting to establish a closer relationship.

Recently, Girls’ Generation, 2NE1CNBLUE and BTOB have experimented with new methods of self-marketing.

On the 25th, Girls’ Generation sprayed graffiti on SM Entertainment building walls. Along with their individual signatures, they left the words “Mr. Mr.” on the walls to advertise their upcoming comeback. This act amassed attention for being a new and refreshing way of marketing.

In addition, members Taeyeon and Seohyun posted statuses on each of their online social accounts. On SM the Ballad‘s single release day she posted, “Today. 12 P.M. Set me free! Breath M/V! 19th SNSD comeback!” together with a photograph of her with a surprised expression. Seohyun, on the other hand, uploaded a photograph of her on the set of their new M/V.

2NE1 member Sandara Park, through her Instagram account, has posted various spoilers of their comeback. For example, in order to promote their new single “Come Back Home”, she uploaded a teaser of her rocking a metallic blue hairdo and a black beanie reminiscent of howSeo Taiji and the Boys looked like during their “Come Back Home” days. In addition, large-scale balloons were put up in front of the YG building to celebrate 2NE1’s return.

On the 24th, after the release of their album, CNBLUE was seen on the subway promoting their work. During the shooting of KBS 2TV’s “Entertainment Weekly”, CNBLUE took 3 signed CD’s of their album Can’t Stop to a subway station in order to self-market it. They explained their music to each individual they met and shook hands with them as well.

BTOB, who made their comeback on the 17th with “Beep Beep”, have been fiercely self-marketing their EP. At a radio station, they promoted a campaign of safe driving(which has to do with their title track). In addition, they gave out bread and drinks that were labeled with the words ‘Beep Beep’ to the radio staff as well as invited guests.

CRUSH

BhaiFBFCMAAqrWO

Track 1 – CRUSH

I’m every girl’s hot crush
A rush that makes your heart beat faster
Pretty unnies like me
Because you become prettier if you like me

They love me cuz im hot
They love me cuz im cold
They love me cuz im real
They love me cuz I kill (x2)

I have nothing to be afraid of
I also think of myself as scary
I’m busy
Do you not watch TV
Go out now
Don’t talk to me

Come here if you think you can dance like me
I’ll kill you with just myself
This music that makes you crazy
Can you hear me
MINZY they love me

I’m indifferent
I do everything the way I want to
I’m indifferent
Everyone knows I don’t care
I’m indifferent
There’s nothing that I am unsatisfied with
Don’t expect too much
I’m indifferent and no one can stop me

They love me cuz im hot
They love me cuz im cold
They love me cuz im real
They love me cuz I kill (x2)

I got 21 big brothers
To me you ain’t big brother
I say without hesitation
with my pretty lips
If you bother me
Fool, its your loss

Valentines day everyday
Even cupid is in love with me
Don’t be fooled by
my smiling face
because I’m dangerous

I’m indifferent
I do everything the way I want to
I’m indifferent
Everyone knows I don’t care
I’m indifferent
There’s nothing that I am unsatisfied with
Don’t expect too much
I’m indifferent and no one can stop me

They love me cuz im hot
They love me cuz im cold
They love me cuz im real
They love me cuz I kill (x2)

Come and get it i kill
Come and get it i kill
Yeah Come and get it i kill
Come and get it i kill

Nolza hey hey hey Nolza
Nolza hey hey hey Nolza
