WINNER: AN INTRODUCTION

Yay, finally team A win, will debut under the name WINNER. Setelah melewati final battle yang sengit, akhirnya merekalah yang berhak untuk menjadi artis baru YG Entertainment. Di hari penentuan kedua tim diberi 3 tugas: same track different arrangement, dance, dan self composing song. Sulit menentukan mana tim yang akan menang. Di babak pertama tim A mampu membuat beat Just Another Boy menjadi adiktif dan enjoyable. Di babak dance, tim B menggunakan konsep yang energik sedangkan tim A menari dengan hati (praise Seunghoon for the genius choreography.). Di babak ketiga, lagu Climax milik tim B seolah membalik keadaan. Hampir seluruh penonton meneteskan air mata mendengar kisah team B selama bertahun-tahun training di YG yang dialunkan dalam lagu itu.  Not to say that team B's song is better because Go Up of team A is so catchy, emotional, and meaningful. I still can't accept the fact that only 3 members of team B stand out. There are years to make team B fulfill YG's standard. But simply said, both teams have their different colours so listener's taste does matter. Even when I gave my support to team A, I still have to admit that team B is talented too.


Seperti yang Daesung katakan, " What's difference if team A is starting first or team B is starting first. There are flowers which bloom in the spring and flowers wich bloom in the fall as well.". He's true, fans gonna waiting for these talented boys in team B bloom in the future.

"Three years that I’ve run in my bare feet, devoting my youth. I had no other choice but to endure much pressure and failures. God asked me if I won’t regret. I answered without any hesitation, why I would regret."- Climax, Team B

Back to Winner. Seperti Big Bang, alasan saya menyukai Winner--selain karena tumbuh dalam idealisme YG entertainment, adalah warna unik dan kualitas kelas wahid membernya. Semua personel Big Bang bisa berdiri sebagai solois dan Winner mempunyai members yang capable untuk melakukan hal yang sama. Sure, Big Bang is my number one boygroup but Winner is number two now. haha.

Nam Taehyun, sang maknae (termuda) adalah DJ, composer, producer, main vocal, and breakdancer. His sense of art looks like GD's. He's along with Song Mino is a beatboxer and painter too. Mino also majoring at rapping and composing. This rapper is genius or something, his lyrics are always awesome. Everytime we see Taehyun and Mino, they show so much surprising things. In both talents and characters, Mino and Taehyun are unique. Firstly, I dont know that Taehyun's making track talent would make anybody left in awe-struck. I dont even know that Mino (randomly) made a song about alphabet and ants. All member show great potential in their very young age.

In same track different arragement battle, Just Another Boy song, Mino's rap is jawdropping and Taehyun's vocal makes the song sweeter.

" Dont provoke me, I'm crazy so what. Even if you try to tackle me, you'll miss, nah mean?" -Just Another Boy, Team A-
Jinwoo, the hardworker, is fresh voice's owner and dancer. In WIN first episode, he showed his determination by practicing while the others sleep, stay still when the other trainees give up. He sleeps for maximum 4 hours. The cute face possesses sweet voice. Sure its enjoyable to see this shy boy showing his other talents in the future.

Kang Seung Yoon, is a humble yet supertalented leader. He has a very bright personality. He's good at composing (his songs could move everyone's heart), playing guitar, singing (yeah, his powerful voice), and producing. Lagunya bisa menguasai chart bahkan ketika dia baru muncul ke publik melalui ajang pencarian bakat Mnet Superstar K2. I've fallen for him since his solo activities. In WINNER he shows his other side rather than a rockstar. Lagu "Smile Again" yang dinyanyikan di second battle dan "Go Up" yang dinyanyikan di final adalah hasil pemikiran sang leader cerdas ini.
Lee Seunghoon, the hiphop baby lion, is genius choregrapher, dancer, rapper, beatboxer, lyricist. He is hilarious even since his competition days at Kpopstar. His understanding about dance is on another level:  he was born to dance. Sekali lagi, sang rapper mengkritisi kompetisi WIN yang memaksanya saling menginjak dengan team B yang semula adalah sabahat. This is one of the choreography he made. Meaningful also beautiful. Di awal dance, Seunghoon muncul mengusap keringat (perlambang masa training yang berat), bertemu dengan sahabat tetapi melakukan gerakan yang berlawanan arah (perlambang trainees YG yang dipecah menjadi 2 tim), mereka terus berlatih keras menunjukkan passion di bidang musik hingga gerakan menginjak (perlambang persahabatan yang berubah menjadi persaingan sengit). Pada akhirnya Seunghoon pulang dengan wajah sedih dan depresi (melambangkan bahwa kemenangan sekalipun tidak bisa membuatnya senang). His dance story-line is simply genius. I can't get over his choreography. Never in my life I'm sobbing because of a dance, but this dance is just extremely emotional. Should I say this? I think his choreography is a pure art.
Saya teringat kembali ketika di episode 1 saya dibuat berkaca-kaca oleh cerita Jinwoo yang telah 3 tahun berpisah dari keluarganya untuk mengejar mimpinya. Ketika satu persatu trainee menyerah, dia masih bertahan dalam segala tekanan. Karena pressure serupa, Taehyun yang supertalented ingin menyerah. Seungyoon harus melihat satu persatu rekannya debut lebih dulu. Mino yang keinginannya menjadi musisi ditentang oleh orang tuanya berusaha keras membuktikan kualitasnya di sini. Seunghoon yang telah begitu lama mengidolakan YG harus menempuh jalan berliku untuk akhirnya masuk ke YG. Saya diingatkan kembali betapa pahitnya ketika di episode-episode awal team A mengalami kekalahan beruntun. Saya sadar mungkin produser di YG lebih berharap team B menang karena darah hiphop yang mengalir di team B. Team A membalik keadaan dengan perjuangan sekuat tenaga, dengan menjadi berbeda dari artis-artis YG lainnya. But YG, sure I want team A win. I want to listen other colours than hiphop Big Bang brought. Congratulation Team A for winning. Cant wait for these-five-talented-boys debuted :)

(Saya ingat tulisan ini menempel di pintu ruang latihan YG's trainee. Its very cool!
YG trainee intruction : 
1. Before becoming a singer, become a human first. 
All of the trainess should greet anyone who is older than them including YG artists and staff with a 90 degree bow and loud voice. 
2. YG can make a gem shine but doesnt have the ability to make a stone shine. 
Will you be a gem or stone? This will be only possible through your blood and sweat of effort. Dont forget that you're trainees with only potential at the moment at 5 points [out of 100] and dont forget to use one hour of practice to the fullest like its ten hours worth. At the end of the month, all of the trainess will be reviewed so always be on alert. 
Those who are lacking in effort or potential will be sent home.)
