The release of the first album is approaching (Cosmic Girls)
ファーストアルバム発売近づく(宇宙少女)
Ahead of the release of their first full-length album, Korean girl group Cosmic Girls has released a music video (MV) teaser for their title song "HAPPY".
On the 1st, their agency Starship Entertainment posted the MV teaser on their official SNS with the caption "Cosmic Girls HAPPY teaser video released!
20170607".
In the teaser video, the lovely members' bouncy figure against a vivid color background catches the eye.
The "HAPPY" MV was directed by fantasy rap director Kim Ji-young, who has worked on WINNER's "Baby Baby", Lee Hi's "HOLD MY HAND", and Cosmic Girls' "I Wish", and maximizes Cosmic Girls' bright and dynamic appearance.
The theme of the song is dodgeball, a sport that girls enjoyed in their school days, and it shows the happy and adorable image of Girls' Generation.
The image of them training hard to win the dodgeball tournament and finally lifting the trophy is connected to the growth period of WJSN, who went through a tough trainee period to release an album.
The title song "HAPPY," which features the participation of Korea's best producing team Black Eyed Pilseung, who has produced hits such as SISTAR's "TOUCH MY BODY" and TWICE's "CHEER UP" and "TT," is a powerful dance song with a dance hall beat that is popular worldwide.
The song honestly expresses the happy and thrilling feelings of falling in love, and is full of the beautiful image and refreshing sensibility that girls of the same generation can express.

There's been a lot of talk, but it seems that WJSN will make a comeback with music that feels like a sequel to "I Wish."
Cosmic Girls' comeback song "I Wish" was overshadowed by other popular girls AOA's "Excuse Me", Seohyun's (Girls' Generation) solo debut song, and Suzy's (Miss A) solo song, and only stood out for a short time.
To be honest, I got the impression that they couldn't compete with the big names.
However, their light, rhythmic singing voice and refreshing stage performance did a good job of conveying Cosmic Girls' cuteness and character.
I remembered Yeol-eum, a member I didn't know, in this performance.
There was a moment in the dance choreography where the members joined hands and leaned outward. At this moment, I was intrigued by the girl wearing a hat.
When she leaned forward, her expression slightly distorted in order to maintain her stance for a while.
"I don't feel that way about the other members... it's because they're doing their best."
I looked up the members and found out it was Yeol-eum.
Since then, I've been able to recognize this girl no matter where she is on stage.
Since WJSN has a large number of members, some of them just seem to move around.
The members who stand out to me are Exi, Yeonjung, Sora, Yeolmu, and Songso.
It goes without saying that since it's music with singing and dancing, the direction is important. However, no matter how intricate the direction, it will never go beyond the scope of the allocation.
The most important role is played by the main characters (individual members). It's about how much they can bring out their own good points (qualities) within the given allocation of the direction.
Which member will catch my eye next in the album's title song, "HAPPY"...?
