[Interview] Musician’s Choice – Sandara Park’s ‘Classic Pop Songs that she enjoyed listening to in her adolescence’

[Interview] Musician’s Choice – Sandara Park’s ‘Classic Pop Songs that she enjoyed listening to in her adolescence’

Sandara Park(26) has the most refreshing vocal out of the four members of group 2NE1. While the other members pump up the party with black music with rhythm full of groove and stylish rap, she has thin and clear tone that is gentle most of the time. Because of this, initially the fans have said she is ‘playing by herself,’ but she has established herself as one who neutralized black music with pop music colors, and risen as unique member, bringing freshness to the group.

“At first music of our group was not the style of music that I liked. First of all there were many new genres that I haven’t heard of. Leader CL gave me a lot of help, and I became used to it and comfortable with it. Now, I fallen in to black music so much that if there isn’t a rap in the song, it almost feels awkward.”

Mixing her own style into that new music has be made it even more refreshing. The process of understanding black music and projecting in her own was not easy, but it has put new courage and confidence in to her.

As many knows, Sandara Park has lived in Philippines since she was in 5th grade. From a young age, she was so shy that she could not talk to people that she met for the first time rather she could not even look at their face. “I couldn’t even talk to my own classmates. I didn’t speak English that well, I was lonely, and when I was gloomy and bored, my only companion to talk to was listening to music by myself secretly hiding in the room. In Philippines, it was easy to listen to recently released music from America; I don’t think there was a day that I did not listen to music.”

It was a ‘shocking incident’ when the shy girl who always curled up in the back in school festivals, the loner who had her head down when it was group sing along time went up on the school festival stage. Also, when she debuted, many people were surprised thinking ‘how will a girl that couldn’t even talk sing?’ “I think songs that I was singing alone in the room were fill to my throat. It was time to spit it out, but I couldn’t find a right place, so I went to the school stage where I was so afraid of. From then, I think I started to open up the passion that was in me.”

‘The Classic Pop Songs that she enjoyed listening to in her adolescence freshness of the present’, the topic of This week’s her‘Musician’s Choice’ holds various meaning because it was her friend who comforted her in her most difficult days and the hero who made her who she is today. “Most people today grew up listening to black music, but I grew up listening to pop songs so I felt like I could show my uniqueness. These are my own classical pop songs that I frequently revisit when past thoughts occur or when I am excercising.”

Even during the gap of albums, she is still busy. With commercial shootings, practices (vocal and choreography), and even Japanese studies, she has no time to read. But she says she still has so much she wants to do. “Singing is a given, and I been interested in acting or variety shows. Honestly, I don’t think I have sense for variety shows, but I think it will be fun. When I saw Dae Sung(BIGBANG), I thought he had such good reaction to rapidly changing situations, I might as well as learn a bit from him. Ho ho.
