Pop Icon Seo to Release 8th Album June 25

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Korean pop artist Seo Tai-ji, 37, will release his eighth album under the title "Seotaiji 8th Atomos" on June 25, his management agency announced Tuesday.

The album will be a collection of 12 songs, including a single released in July 2008.

Moreover, it will contain another two singles to be unveiled on Saturday at the War Memorial of Korea in Yongsan, central Seoul, which doubles as the opening of his band's 2009 live tour, "The Mobius."

"Seo has remixed the first two singles and even recorded the instrumental and vocal sound again in part," a spokesman said. "We are ready to work with American recording engineer Ted Jensen on sound sources of all the 12 numbers."

As the chief engineer at Sterling Sound, Jensen has mastered top class musicians such as Green Day and Marilyn Manson.

The first 100,000 fans who buy the new album will be presented with a tour poster, the spokesman said.

The only song of his I know is "Nan Arayo", only because it was in 3 Ninjas Kick Back.

You should check his other songs too as he's a real living krock legend (I don't know why the article calls him a pop artist) whose songs have inspired most of the current singers to become artists.

I've only listened to two albums of his, I Know and Ultramania, but I really love both.

i've developed a sort of huge crush on him these last few days :x

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Well, he's nowadays much hotter than when he was still young.

[heesica.livejournal.com]

I honestly have no idea what he looked like then lol. But some folks just need to age into their looks

[heesica.livejournal.com]

Whoa. Saying he looks better now now seems like a gross understatement. o_o

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

rofl everyone looked bad back then though. if you look at pictures of people wearing the styles then compared to now they look younger. oh god the horrible hair of the 80's / early 90's D:

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

yeah how did that happen? i kinda dont picture him as one to get surgery but i could be wrong.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

I think it's just combination of better haircut and hair color, better glasses, better clothes, staying fit, and good genes what comes to aging as his neck and hands look still as smooth as his face.

This.
I mean, even disregarding 90s fashion, he just looks better now than when he was younger. I don't know why. :|

Not that I'm complaining. =w=

[fashionbang.livejournal.com]
