"Comeback" Mina (Girl's Day), "Half excited and half worried" as she tries writing lyrics for the first time
Mina and Sojin of the Korean girl group Girl's Day shared their thoughts on trying writing lyrics.
Girl's Day's Mina spoke frankly at the showcase celebrating the release of their fifth mini album "GIRL'S DAY EVERYDAY #5" held at Ilji Art Hall in Seoul on the afternoon of the 27th, saying, "I've written lyrics by myself before, but this is the first time I've shown it to my fans like this, so I'm half excited and half worried."
Sojin also explained, "When I was writing the lyrics for my solo song 'Kumbayo,' I didn't know how to write it, so I wrote out 12 different breakup situations and wrote 12 different lyrics. Some of the lyrics are based on my own experience, but I also wrote them while thinking, 'I wonder if other people feel this way when they break up.'"
Girl's Day's title song, "I'll be yours," is a memorable song with lyrics that express the heart of a confident girl and are sexy and confident, inviting boys to confess their feelings.

The title song embodies the concept of the comeback.
What kind of song is it? I immediately watched the video for Girl's Day's comeback title song, "I'll be yours."
The music that is typical of Girl's Day is back.
The opinions are likely to be divided between fans who are relieved and fans who are disappointed because they didn't get anything new.
My expectations were not met.
Regardless of their domestic popularity, I think it will be difficult for them to become popular abroad.
The video shows them manipulating men, but their stage performances are too mature.
K-pop fans are in their teens and twenties, and are mostly women.
The mature nature of this music may be conveyed to male fans in a positive light.
But it is music that female fans find difficult to empathize with.
It is completely unsuitable for the flash mobs that K-pop fans gather in city squares for.
Girl's Day is somewhat known overseas as a K-pop girls' group.
However, perhaps because of the two-year hiatus, the sensibilities for the music have dulled, along with the team involved with Girl's Day.
If I had to say, it would be better for Mina of Girl's Day to work as a solo singer.
However, I can't imagine Mina as a solo singer.
In the future, I think she would be better suited to being an actress...
K-Pop group music is gaining global recognition after years of hard work.
Hit songs by popular girl groups are now danced to enthusiastically in flash mobs in squares around the world.
Even girl groups that have fallen out of favor can quickly become popular again if they catch the trend.
Wonder Girls proved this with "Why So Lonely" and T-ARA's "tiamo" proved it with their nostalgic melody lines.
Girl's Day, who have a certain degree of success, would probably be able to sell well if they made a comeback with music along these lines, thanks to the popularity of Mina and Hyeri.
But unfortunately, "I'll Be Yours" is not the kind of music that you can dance to in a city square in the middle of the day.
I couldn't help but tweet this while watching the video of the performance.
"Oh my goodness, what is this?!"
Why would they make a comeback with music that would be sung in a nightclub at night, instead of a flash mob in the middle of the day?
He tweeted again.
"This won't sell to K-pop fans."
