Brown Eyed Girls reveal their mentality behind creating "Sixth Sense"

  For the first time in two years, the Brown Eyed Girls sat down for an interview with reporters.  The first question asked was about the girls' intensive preparation period. They replied, "We feel like our lives have been curtailed." After hitting home runs with "How Come" and "Abracadabra", the girls were under immense pressure to follow up with something even stronger while simultaneously having to worry about being forgotten during their hiatus. Maybe it's because the song is the product of such feelings, but "Sixth Sense" shines with power and glory.  "People said that they were scared of our music video and asked if we had given up on looking pretty.  We just wanted to show a stronger force compared to before and agreed to 'just let it all out.'  We knew that we were walking a different path compared to other girl groups," Narsha explained. They had to completely scrap three albums' worth of productions, each time racking their imaginations to come up with a better song and concept.  As time passed by, their panic only grew.  Still, they couldn't give in to the easier path because they had to go back to their roots and find an image that set them apart from categories like 'idols' and 'girl groups'. Ga-In stated, "I was the happiest when people said that their expectations of us coming out with synth-based dance music and sexy dances were completely overridden." Narsha added, "We don't have a specific point choreography as we placed the emphasis instead on our live and high notes.  We really hated hearing people say that we're a vocal group so why are we only dancing. We were determined to show them once and for all." She continued, "I like the image of striving for challenges.  I was proud when I saw someone reply, 'It's okay because it's the Brown Eyed Girls.'  I'm confident that we're the only team that can take something difficult and complex and make it easy to approach for the public." Miryo concluded, "We really had to go all in for this album by giving up on our individual and overseas activities.  Basically, we went back to our roots. Now it's time for us to start all over again." Source + Photos: SPHK via Naver
