[Last member EUNHYUK arrived] - Hello. - Hello.
[Looking around]
I'm shy in front of the cam.
[This is season 3 of "SJ returns" but he's still shy] Since it's been awhile....
[Reading the room]
[It's familiar]
[2 years ago, when we filmed "SJ returns 1"]
[He was just released from the military and too shy in front of the cam]
[Surprised]
[This is season 3... You may feel better about this...] I can't move freely.
[It feels like we've time-traveled to 2 years ago] What should I do?
Okay, this is our recording studio.
I'm going to record the first song for our 9th album.
[Feeling nervous]
I'm here to record a song.
Let's take a look inside.
[Is this what others do, right?]
[Trying to wrap it up] I can't remember how I did in front of a cam.
Good to see you, returns.
[EUNHYUK starts recording]
Please let me hear RYEWOOK's bridge part, too.
Yes.
[Checking out the rap flow that he wrote]
"Mamasita, my heart is on fire, Fuerza Bruta".
[EUNHYUK's rap lyrics are written with familiar words]
The song has the Latin vibe.
I wanted to have some Spanish words.
We used to have Spanish lyrics in SJ's songs.
["Sorry," "Once again"] Lo Siento, Otra Vez.
[Nickname] MAMACITA.
[He chose "MAMACITA" that matches the song] I thought MAMACITA will suit this song.
Also, "FUERZA BRUTA" which I was a part of.
It means "brutal power".
So, my rap goes like my love burnt my heart with brutal power.
[Wrote his rap lyrics using Spanish words] That much, you're attracting me.
It's the meaning of the lyrics.
If fans hear familiar words, they will like it.
[Fun lyrics for fans] I added such words.
[After finishing EUNHYUK's rap part]
[All members finished recording "I Think I," the first title track candidate]
- Thank you. - Thank you for the hard work today.
[Day to record "Fire (working title)," the 2nd title track candidate for SJ's 9th album]
["Fire (working title)" recording schedule] [AM 9:00 YESUNG, AM 10:00 KYUHYUN]
[AM 11:00 RYEOWOOK, PM 12:00 EUNHYUK, PM 1:00 DONGHAE, PM 2:00 HEECHUL]
[PM 3:00 LEETEUK, PM 4:00 SIWON, PM 5:00 SHINDONG]
[Kriz / "Fire(working title)" director]
I'm going to record "Fire(working title)"
which is as passionate as this wall color.
[Started recording "Fire(working title)"]
[Passionately]
[Powerful voice]
[Resonant]
[Everything goes so smoothly]
When we choose a song, we think about where to focus on.
"Fire(working title)" is so cool
but it can show our cheerful and uplifting vibe.
[Next one to record "Fire(working title)"]
[Biggest star in the universe]
[This scene looks so familiar] Everyone.
Let's go to start the 999 project.
[Today] [A few days ago] [Same hair color, same T-shirt, same pants]
[Identical]
[Explaining] It's not because this is the only T-shirt I have.
It's because I have multiple copies of the same T-shirt.
[Leaving an excuse]
[Arrived at the studio] - Hello. - Hello.
- Hello. - Fire!
- Will you keep the title? - I will change it.
["Fire(working title)" will be fixed as "Game"] I'm thinking about it.
Shall we check out the lyrics?
["Fire(working title)"] Based on a race,
the singer is in a car race with a girl he loves
and he wants to make her his.
So, I've searched car racing related terms.
There's a section called "hair pin," which is for a U-turn.
[Hair pin section] I thought about this
and wrote lyrics based on "U" lyrics.
[Got the idea of "U" shaped hair pin section] A hairpin looks like this, like "U".
Also, "Yoo" means soft and mild in Korean.
So I wanted to have a punch line that rhymes with "U".
Let's think together about which one is the best.
The lyrics that rhymes with U.
Let me show you.
[Rap lyrics inspired by "U"] "I will chase you smoothly, like a hairpin, being gentle".
It's based on our lyrics from "U".
[The most important part of "U"] The most important lyrics is
to "make you mine". That's it.
"HEECHUL's pick The highlight part of "U" lyrics]
[Q. For the last line] "I will chase you smoothly, like a hairpin, being gentle".
"I will make you mine". Does it suit the entire lyrics?
And take a look.
"I will chase you smoothly, like a hairpin, being gentle".
"You will want me and have craving for me".
It makes sense.
"I will chase you smoothly, like a hairpin, being gentle".
"Don't go away, leaving me alone here". It doesn't make sense.
I guess this is the best. "Because I haven't started a game with you".
Because EUNHYUK's lyrics
are not about after their departure. They haven't started a race yet.
Let's start.
- Hyukjae finished recording? - He finished it already.
[Planning to change the lyrics while recording] I'm going to try this.
I will change the rap parts in the middle.
[HEECHUL started recording]
[Checking the rap flow before recording]
[It's hard to say] Which one is better? Which one?
Do you want me to play the guided version of rap parts?
- I will practice after listening to EUNHYUK's part, without the guided version. - Okay.
[Continuing EUNHYUK's flow]
[Not comfortable]
The last line "I haven't started" feels weak, right?
"A game with you is not set". What do you think?
Which part? How?
"Not set".
[Former lyrics: We haven't started a game] "Not set".
[Now: The game is not set]
Let's try. You're fluent in English.
[Checking out the flow with changed lyrics]
- What do you think? - Like this?
[It suits well] It goes well with the song.
"Not set".
Oh, my. I feel nervous when I say anything in English.
[What's deep in his heart] - Let's try. - Yes.
Set the tone, please.
- I like it. - Do you? - Yes.
If you like it, I will keep this tone.
[Checking the details of his rap flow]
[Q. Candidate tones for the last line] [1. Entire line is cheerful]
Will it be better if I rap like this, or
[2. Only the last part will be cheerful]
What do you think?
[3. The entire part is calm without any specific flow]
Or I can keep it down. What do you think?
- In fact... - From a view point of listeners.
I hope you have the flow from the beginning.
[HEECHUL makes his own rap flow by talking with the director] Like this?
Yes, I like that more.
[Stressing Boo and Yoo sounds] Boo and Yoo.
I hope we become rich with this album. (Pun in Korean)
[Another thing from his heart] Like this,
I'm going to practice my rap.
[Director] When I recorded "I Think I," I followed
direction from Hanbyul and I was like a student taught by a teacher.
[Rap part] In case of "Fire(working title)," the director and I worked together
to create the rap flow. That's unique.
- I like the front part. - Me, too.
Let's work on the latter part.
[Last part] What if I rap fast "A game with you?"
And about this "not set" part....
[And he keeps asking] Should I keep the flow or
have a pause between the lines?
[Question] "Not set" or "not set?"
[Question] Which one is better? "I am ready or I'm ready?"
[Another question] Can I go on the flow a bit more? Or should I keep it straight?
[Question king in the recording booth] Should I need the doubling? How can I do this?
I think you need that.
- May I try to rap fast? - Yes.
[Thinking hard]
I like it but "Game with you" feels a bit ambiguous.
[Game with you?]
May I try this?
Okay, let's go with that.
Let's try.
"Game with you is not set".
- Oh, it's better. - Really?
Because "Game with you",
[Vibe from his long career] doesn't require to move my lips.
[HEECHUL thought about diction] It feels like this.
[HEECHUL finished his recording] - Good. - I like it, too.
It's over!
[Meanwhile, this member seems to have many thoughts] What should I do?
