  Description (Translated):

  The first signal announcing the start of the voyage of Korea s first K-city pop girl group UNICODE, HELLO WORLD: CODE J EP.1

  Five girls selected through [Project K], the largest online audition in Japanese history, come to us under the name UNICODE. UNICODE makes their first move to the public under the name HELLO WORLD: CODE J EP.1 through Double X Entertainment.

  As if to prove that they came out fully prepared from the first album, the history of the participating members is also impressive. The title song Will You Look Back by Jinyoung , who produced numerous idols and worked on B1A4 s hit songs, was arranged in a city pop mood full of vinyl, highlighting the members kitsch, and the MV production included Red Velvet, Shindong s Walala Studio, which worked on Super Junior, Celeb Five, etc., helped.

  The flow of the album s songs is also organized organically, pleasing the ears of K-POP fans. From the intro that makes you feel like you are being guided on a plane, it leaves an impact with the title song Will You Look Back that will clearly imprint the world of Unicode, followed by Blur (Call) , Spring of Twenty , and Spring Rain . It makes you feel Unicode s concept in sound, which is different from other girl groups. The last outro of the album announces that their journey has now begun, naturally making people look forward to their next move.

  The K-POP scene is cold. There are hundreds of groups that are not chosen by the public every year, and it is a place where you have to struggle with all your might to survive, feeling like you are walking on thin ice every day. It would be good to look forward to what UNICODE s next journey will be like through HELLO WORLD: CODE J EP.1 , the first greeting to the world made up of the sweat and tears they shed for their debut.

  Description (Original):

  국내 최초 K시티팝 걸그룹 유니코드(UNICODE) 항해의 시작을 알리는 첫번째 신호탄 HELLO WORLD : CODE J EP.1

  일본 사상 최대규모의 온라인 오디션 [Project K]를 통해 선발된 5명의 소녀들이 유니코드(UNICODE)라는 이름으로 우리에게 다가온다. 유니코드(UNICODE)는 그들의 첫번째 행보를 더블엑스엔터테인먼트를 통해 HELLO WORLD : CODE J EP.1 라는 이름으로 대중들에게 눈 도장을 찍는다.

  첫 앨범부터 만반의 준비를 하고 나왔다는 걸 증명하듯이 참여진의 이력 또한 화려하다. 수 많은 아이돌의 프로듀싱부터 B1A4의 히트곡들을 작업한 진영 의 타이틀곡 돌아봐줄래 는 바이닐함이 가득 느껴지는 시티팝 무드로 편곡하여 멤버들의 키치함을 부각시켰으며, MV 프로덕션엔 레드벨벳, 슈퍼주니어, 셀럽파이브 등을 작업한 신동 의 왈랄라 스튜디오가 힘을 보탰다.

  앨범 수록곡들의 흐름 또한 유기적으로 편성되어 K-POP팬들의 귀를 즐겁게 한다. 마치 기내 안내를 받는 듯한 느낌을 주는 인트로부터 유니코드의 세계를 확실히 각인 시킬 타이틀곡 돌아봐줄래 로 임팩트를 남긴 후 이어지는 Blur (불러) , 스무살의 봄 , 봄 비 로 여타 다른 걸그룹들과는 다른 유니코드의 컨셉을 사운드적으로 느낄 수 있게 만든다. 앨범의 마지막 아웃트로에서는 그녀들의 여정이 이제 시작되었음을 알리며 자연스레 다음 행보를 기대하게 만든다.

  K-POP씬은 냉정하다. 대중들의 선택을 받지 못한 그룹들이 1년에도 수백개씩 쏟아지며, 하루하루를 살얼음판 걷는 듯한 기분으로 사력을 다해 발버둥 쳐야 살아남는 곳이다. 그녀들이 데뷔를 위해 흘린 땀과 눈물로 이루어진 세상에게 건네는 첫번째 인사 HELLO WORLD : CODE J EP.1 을 통해 유니코드(UNICODE)의 다음 여정은 어떤 모습일지 기대해 봐도 좋을 듯 하다.
