Description (Translated):
something is incomplete An expression closer to a question mark than an exclamation mark, eyes that seem to contain dozens of words, and a mysterious atmosphere that cannot be measured. The mysterious image of a character who rarely shows emotion, that is, a 'girl', was soon revealed as a 'secret' moment. WJSN's second mini-albumCosmic Girls, who reorganized the team into a 13-member group with the addition of Yoo Yeon-jung, revealed their worldview in earnest through this album. It presents a unique direction with a composition that cannot be defined as cute, sexy, or simply a concept series. Music videos, fashion, artwork, etc. are put together like a puzzle, just like putting clothes on music against the background of members who have their own stories. Here, the fun of enjoying the mysterious Riddle promotion was added.
The title song 'It's a Secret' is a medium dance song based on a shuffle rhythm, and is a custom-made song based on the image of WJSN. With the keyword 'secret' in the background, this song deals with the heart of a shy girl who fell in love. The music box theme of the intro, electric guitar, synth, and strings harmonize to deliver a dense and full sound. Hit composer E.One wrote and composed the song, and Shinsadong Tiger arranged the song. In addition, it was filled with songs containing realistic stories of wild imaginations and sympathetic girls. With songs such as 'Bebe', which is a unique genre of electro trap, 'Cosmic Kiss Me', which captures the pure and lovely emotions of girls, and 'Robot', which shows off Giriboy's wit, various charms are released. Also, the last song 'Bunk Bed' is a reality song that contains the uncertain future, the family that protected me, and the daily life of the members who became another family.
Finding motifs from animations and movies to the images of WJSN members is the core of this theme album. The tightness of the composition of the music video for "It's a Secret" is also a part that clearly reveals the character of the album. If the debut song 'Momo Mo' was an anthem for innocent girls, this song shows the blueprint that is tightly nested within the same skeleton. The emotional line is more delicate and fresh. Sky-heavy lyrics, synth-pop, and fantasy elements that go back and forth between virtual and reality bring about more secret love of pure girls. The color of the team, which combines the unknown world of 'space' and the delicate and pure image of 'girl', is more clearly known as the style of space girl. The process of unraveling it is a period of growth for girls who are serious, yet not heavy, and endlessly curious about fantasy, reality and fiction. Secret, mystery, innocence, confession, constellation, etc. The music video, which is intricately intertwined and clearly conveys the message, was directed by Fantasy Lab's Kim Ji-yong, who worked on Winner's 'Baby Baby' and Lee Hi's 'Hold My Hand'. It is a fictional animation setting depicting the dreams, adventures, and love of WJSN.
WJSN, which presents a unique girl code by reconstructing fantasy and mystery elements, is a new type of girls pop. Girls who seem to know for a long time, WJSN, who revealed a new world with subcultural tastes, will deliver another 'girls fantasy'.
Description (Original):
뭔가 불완전하다. 느낌표보다 물음표에 가까운 표정, 수십 개의 단어를 머금은 듯한 눈빛, 가늠할 수 없는 오묘한 분위기를 풍긴다. 좀처럼 감정을 드러내지 않는 캐릭터, 즉 ‘소녀’의 신비로운 이미지는 곧 ‘비밀’스런 순간으로 드러났다. 우주소녀의 두 번째 미니앨범유연정의 합류로 13인조로 팀을 재편한 우주소녀는 이 앨범을 통해 본격적으로 세계관을 드러냈다. 귀엽거나 섹시하거나, 단순히 콘셉트 시리즈로 규정할 수 없는 구성으로 독특한 방향성을 제시한다. 제각각의 스토리를 품은 멤버들을 배경으로 음악에 옷을 입히듯, 뮤직비디오, 패션, 아트워크 등이 퍼즐처럼 맞춰지는 구성. 여기에 미스터리한 리들 프로모션으로 즐기는 재미도 더했다.
타이틀곡 '비밀이야'는 셔플리듬을 기반으로 한 미디엄 댄스곡으로, 우주소녀의 이미지를 토대로 맞춤형으로 제작된 노래다. '비밀'이란 키워드를 배경으로 사랑에 빠진 수줍은 소녀의 마음을 다룬 곡으로, 인트로의 오르골 테마와 일렉 기타, 신스, 스트링이 조화를 이루며 밀도 높고 꽉 채워진 사운드를 들려준다. 히트 작곡가 E.One이 작사 작곡을 맡았고 신사동호랭이가 편곡을 담당했다. 이외에도 엉뚱한 상상과 공감어린 소녀들의 현실적 스토리를 수록한 노래로 가득 채웠다. 일렉트로 트랩이란 독특한 장르의 'Bebe', 소녀들의 순수하고 러블리한 감성을 담아낸 '우주 키스미', 기리보이의 재치가 돋보이는 '로봇' 등의 곡으로 다양한 매력을 뿜어낸다. 또 마지막곡 '이층침대'는 불확실한 미래, 날 지켜준 가족, 또 다른 가족이 된 멤버들의 일상을 담은 리얼리티곡이다.
우주소녀 멤버들의 이미지에 애니메이션, 영화에서 모티브를 찾아내 입힌 것은 이번 테마 앨범의 핵심이다. '비밀이야' 뮤직비디오가 보여주는 구성의 타이트함은 앨범의 성격을 명확히 드러내는 대목이기도 하다. 데뷔곡 '모모모'가 티없이 맑은 소녀들의 찬가였다면, 이번 곡은 같은 골격 안에서도 빽빽히 자리한 설계도를 보여준다. 감정선은 더욱 여리고 풋풋하다. 하늘하늘한 노랫말과 신스팝, 가상과 현실을 오가는 판타지 요소 등이 순수한 소녀들의 더욱 비밀스러운 사랑을 불러온다. '우주'란 미지의 세계와 '소녀'의 여리고 순수한 이미지를 결합한 팀의 색깔을 보다 분명하게, 비로소 우주소녀의 스타일임을 알린다. 그것을 풀어내는 과정은 판타지, 실제와 허구 사이 진지하면서도 무겁지 않고 한없이 궁금하게 만드는 소녀들의 성장기인 셈이다. 비밀, 신비, 순수, 고백, 별자리 등 복잡하게 얽혀있으면서도 명료하게 메시지를 전달하는 뮤직비디오는 위너의 'Baby Baby', 이하이의 '손잡아줘요' 등을 작업한 판타지랩의 김지용 감독이 연출을 맡았다. 우주소녀의 꿈과 모험, 사랑을 그린 가상판 애니메이션 설정이다.
판타지와 미스터리 요소를 재구성해 독특한 걸스 코드를 제시한 우주소녀는 걸스팝의 새로운 유형이다. 오래 봐야 진짜 알 것만 같은 소녀들, 서브컬쳐적 취향을 덧입혀 새로운 세계를 공개한 우주소녀는 또 다른 '걸스 판타지'를 전달할 것이다.
