Some new information from her radio:

-Both Yonghwa and SWJA agreed the song has to be "warm". SWJA imagined 'Hello' to be an omnibus narrative: the two narrators in the song have two different experiences and memories they sing of. If you closely read the lyrics, the two aren't directly related with each other. Individual stories are coexisting in the song.

-Although she wrote 'Fireworks' thinking of Yonghwa and wanted to sing it with him, she was afraid to ask first because she thinks that she is not an artist who can guarantee commercial success. Right around the time she discussed this with her agency, Yonghwa approached her first with the offer. She was really surprised and thinks it’s not an overstatement at all to describe it as “fate” :)

-Yonghwa played the guitar for both ‘Hello’ and ‘Fireworks’. For ‘Fireworks,’ it just happened naturally on the day of recording Yonghwa’s vocals — there were many guitars lying around at the studio and he started playing with it. SWJA really liked the tune he played so asked him on the spot to record. Yonghwa, without his own instrument/pedalboard, willingly obliged and played hard to record for a long time. 

-The bridge part of ‘Fireworks’ was still incomplete, but Yonghwa played the piano and wrote all the chords/melody. It starts with “shining star, stained on your lips.” As soon as SWJA heard it, she thought “This is it!!” but Yonghwa humbly asked whether she’s just saying it as a compliment and requested to be honest. It wasn’t always easy for her to collaborate with other artists because she’s been working by herself for so long, but it was such a comfortable and assuring decision. She expressed thanks and was reminded of Yonghwa’s good composing skills.

-On Yonghwa’s “performance” of imitating ’Crow-tit’ (pulling the back of his head in Sketchbook), SWJA says she wants to try that at her next performance of the song. XD

-SWJA didn’t know much about CNBLUE’s musicality, but Yonghwa’s first solo album really smashed what she had thought before. When watching ‘Mileage’ MV, she says it was like finding a new musician. She likes how it sounds hiphop/pop, but has elements of Latin music. That led her to listen to all of his solo album and she realized what a sensible songwriter Yonghwa is. Towards the end of the show, she also recommends OFD as a really nice song and includes it in the playist. :D

    Thank you so much for the translation. It allowed me a better appreciation of the creative process. Yonghwa is a versatile and talented musician and forging new paths with his music. I hope some of his "fans" stop trying to pigeonhole him and his music.

    Really thank you so much for the translation and thanks to SWJA who has such nice things to say about Yong. I was really curious which part of Fireworks he composed and now I know. Once again, I can't say enough times how much I love both Hello and Fireworks and how proud I am of Yong acing another genre. I totally agree with yongyongjii that he should not be pigeonhole in his music cos that would be such a waste of talent.

    Thank u heich. There is so much we fans don't know abt YH's music ability, let alone other people.

    These two incredibly talented musicians are just amazing. I hope YongHwa gets more recognition as the true talented singer song-writer
    and musician that he is.

    와 너무 좋아요.개인적으로 입김의 기타는 누굴까 궁금했는데 역시 용화연주였네요.
    세심하게 알려주시는 비하인드 스토리가 너무 재미나요. 말씀도 조곤조곤 재밌게 하시고. 정말 행복한 콜라보 작업이었던거같아 기분좋습니다

    I'm so glad she points out some good points of Yonghwa: his sensibility, his composition skills, his musicality and how good personality he has, his music oriented career, no toward money...
    But on the other part last paragraph left me a sad sigh - there are still lots of misconception about him in Korea, even around the musicians....
    Therefore, it's a very good path he started to collaborate with many respected musicians and now at least more and more people will appreciate his musical talent. As I saw till now, apart of the collaboration from the solo album, he is appreciated by Lee Moon Sae, Kim Chang Wan, Yu Huiyeol etc.
    Fighting Yonghwa, keep going like this!

    Thanks as always for translating and sharing!

    YH has no lack of creative talents; he just needs opportunity. In fact YH often creates opportunity through his own initiative and hardwork. Really proud of him. Real recognise real ...
