가수 정용화가 화이트데이의 로맨틱 가이로 변신했다.

정용화는 텐아시아가 발행하는 매거진 ‘10+Star’(텐플러스스타) 3월호 표지를 장식했다. ‘혼자 보내는 화이트데이(One Solo Day)’ 콘셉트로 진행된 이번 촬영에서 정용화는 특유의 서정적인 눈빛을 드러내 매력을 선보였다.

씨엔블루의 리더이자 메인보컬인 정용화는 최근 솔로 앨범을 발표해 많은 사랑을 받고 있다. 그의 솔로 첫 정규 앨범 ‘어느 멋진 날’은 발매 하루 만에 아이튠즈 7개국 앨범차트 1위에 올랐으며, 2월 7일자 빌보드 월드앨범 차트 1위, 중국 SNS 가온웨이보차트 11주 연속 1위까지 기록했다. 국내에서도 음악방송 4관왕에 올라 변함없는 인기를 입증했다.

정용화는 “이번 솔로 앨범으로 어떤 것들을 증명할 수 있었던 것 같느냐”는 질문에 “증명이라기보다는, 노래를 열심히 만든 것에 대한 보답을 받은 느낌이다”며 “주변에서 ‘좋다’는 얘기를 많이 해주셨는데, 생각했던 것보다 더 좋아해 주시는 것 같다. 다음에도 더 좋은 노래로, 더 발전했단 얘기를 듣도록 열심히 해야겠다”는 겸손한 답변을 내놓았다.

이번 앨범을 2년 전에 구상하게 된 계기에 대해서는 “내가 하고 싶은 것도 좀 해야 시너지가 있을 것 같았다. 그 당시엔 하드한 것도 해보고 싶었는데, 시간이 지나다 보니 차분해지는 음악을 하게 된 것 같다”고 밝혔다. 또한, 올해 스물일곱이 된 정용화는 자신의 20대를 “’해적선’같은 느낌이다”며 “뺏을 건 뺏어야 하고, 뺏길 건 뺏기고 하는 그런 ‘해적선’”이라고 표현해 진솔한 면모를 보였다.

정용화의 화보와 인터뷰는 23일 발행되는 ‘10+Star’(텐플러스스타) 3월호에서 만나볼 수 있다.

    -This is a preview of the 10asia interview. Some Q&A revealed:

    Q. What do you think you were able to prove through this solo album
    Rather than “proving” something, I feel like I was reciprocated for working hard on the songs. Many of those around me told me they like it. It seems like people like it more than I expected. I will work harder so that I can return next time with better music and hear that I’ve improved even more.

    Q. What made you plan this album?
    I thought I needed to do what I want for the synergy effect. I wanted to try something hard (rock) back then, but over time, I think I’ve grown to make calmer music.

    Q. On his twenties:
    It feels like a pirate ship. I've got to steal what I have to steal, and there are things that end up getting stolen away from me.

    "pirate ship"....that hits me pretty hard. T_T

    reading this hurts me for some reason. i feel like he bottled up so many painful memories

    해적선 뜻이 뭘까 긴가민가했는데 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ.........
    그러고 보면 역시 그가 속한 세계는 체크메이트의 것 그대로가 아닐런지.
    뺏지 않으면 빼앗기는 지난한 전투를 하루하루 이어가고 있는 것이겠지요.
    그 와중에서도 피터팬같은 순수함과 열정을 갖고 하루하루 매진해온 그가 얼마나 대견하고 또 고마운지 ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

    Pirate ship.... We all feel that way as we approach the next stage/decade of or lives. Maybe, because he's a lyricist, he can express it better than most. I like that his definition caries the air of recklessness in it. You go boy! Conquer those seas!

  • Pearl 2015.02.16 09:17
    Being an artist, he has gained so much but at the same time also givem ip so much, I guess that's why he feels like he's on a pirate ship. I'm glad he is in a happy phase right now and the success from his solo album is giving him much energy.

    I don't think all the pain he has endured all this time is just because he's an artist. The unprofessional management of his agency has tons to blame according to what I observe. He should have gained so much more if he were under a better agency. I bet he wouldn't have felt so trapped.

  • Pearl 2015.02.16 22:55

    We all agree that his agency could have and should have been more professional but I guess at the end of the day, it may be better to work in an agency where you know where the weakness is rather than to move to another agency which may not be any better.  I think he is smart enough to know this and that is why despite all the pain he has endured, he still renewed his contract.  Like what HSH said, he knows how the office politics work and he is smart enough to make things work so as to achieve his own objective.  We have a very smart boy here and I have confidence that he will overcome any obstacles that come along, as long as he has his fans to watch out for him and give him full support and love.

    Q. If there's a moment in your life you'd like to capture and preserve, when is it? Whether it'd be happy or difficult ones, you must have a moment you'd like to remember.

    -My entire school years. Thinking back now, each day back then was really dull. I went to school every day, and nothing special happened. But everything's become precious now. I don't want to return to those days, but I miss them. At this moment, it's not like I'm someone who can spend ordinary days.


    Q. But, compared to many young (singers) who debut after long trainee years, you became a singer after spending quite rich school days.

    -That period's helping me, not just in music, but in all areas of my life. It's gratifying. There certainly are advantages to starting your music career early, but there are many advantages from having spent that time. I'm glad...that I spent all those years before (debuting).
