When it comes to domestic music groups, the first thing that the audience should think of is "Hazumi".
But do you remember that there was once a group, they were brilliant for a while, the song was more attractive than the trend of the "Yuquan" group, although it was full of silence afterwards, but recently because the Douyin platform has caught fire again, this combination is - arirang group.
Arirang group is known as the "first music group in the mainland", and its members include Kanazawa Nan, Kim Yun-gi, Kwon Hyuk and Jang Jin-woo, and officially debuted in 2002.
All four were classmates of Yanbian University in Jilin Province, and because of their pursuit of music, they went to Beijing together in 2000 to look for development opportunities. From the initial dilemma of no job, no money, no house, because of the success of participating in the youth song competition and winning the award, it became a hit, and participated in the song performances of CCTV Spring Festival Gala and large-scale evening parties for many times.
Arirang's solid and profound singing skills, unique three-part harmony, powerful and shocking stage expression, international and diverse music styles and fashion styles have made their albums very widely praised and recognized.
In 2003, Arirang entered the Korean music scene, which caused great repercussions in South Korea and became famous in one fell swoop.
In August 2003, Arirang recorded and released the Korean version of the album "Arirang" in South Korea, successfully entering the Korean record market.
This is the first time that a mainland group has released an album overseas in the true sense of the word, marking that Chinese mainland artists have entered the operation of the international commercial record market and have been recognized.
In the years of popularity, CCTV also valued this group, and invited them to appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for 3 consecutive years! At an awards ceremony, this group loved to beat the "Hazumi" group perfectly, and it can be said that the Arirang group at that time was in the limelight!
I thought they would grow red like this, but I didn't expect that in July 2010, the 4 members of the Arirang group suddenly lost one.
The original combination of zhang Jinyou who was worth the burden of appearance unexpectedly disappeared on the stage, some netizens broke the news that Zhang Jinyou fell in love with a Korean woman, not only spent money for her, but also borrowed tens of millions for her, but what people did not expect was that this woman was actually a Korean gangster boss woman, Zhang Jinyou rushed to South Korea alone after a performance to find a beloved woman to explain the situation, but did not expect to go there was no news again, when the news about Zhang Jinyou on the Internet was really creepy, are some horror words!
Zhang Jinyou's accident broke up the Arirang group, other members are worried about Zhang Jinyou's life and death every day, 4 months later, when everyone thinks that Zhang Jinyou has been "torn up", the police finally sent the news of Zhang Jinyou, and finally was rescued back to China!
Because the Arirang group without one member could not return to its previous peak state, it has now been forgotten by the audience!
After Zhang Jinyou went through this incident, he also changed from a bright star to a passerby, it is said that his vocal cords were also injured during house arrest, and the opportunity to return to the stage was out of reach, and the once beautiful man also embarked on the road of Fa Fu middle-aged uncle!
Zhang Jinyou suffered such bad luck at that time, but the members of the group never gave up on him, saying that they "will raise him" and "the company retains Zhang Zhang's shares", full of brotherhood.
Recently, some netizens broke the news on the Internet that Zhang Jinyou was now reduced to singing in bars.
However, 11 years after arirang's establishment, the group disbanded its own development.
In 2017, Kwon Hyuk decided to re-form the Arirang group, adding Choi Jin-so and Kim Jun-yong to go out again in a new musical form. In particular, the recently popular "Taishan Next Door" has quickly become popular on the Internet, arirang group business performances, activity invitations, and recently on the "Every Day Upward" program, the speed of red can be called like sitting on a rocket.
Just last year, Junle Tianyuan (Beijing) Culture Communication Co., Ltd., the agency of the Arirang group, issued a lawyer's letter directly targeting Zhang Jinyou, a former member of the Arirang group, and suing Zhang Jinyou for unauthorized commercial performance of the song of "Taishan Next Door".
Remember, after Zhang Jinyou had an accident in South Korea, the brotherhood between the groups was very moving. So now, there is a gap and interest disputes between the "brothers", and now a cold legal indictment makes people sigh!
