Great Seoul Invasion (Geureiteu Seoul Inbeijeon / 그레이트 서울 인베이전)

If you take a good look, there are many good bands.

Including indie bands,

there are so many talented bands.

Even on top 100 music charts,

band music doesn't account for a big part.

Honestly, Korean bands are not highly respected.

Actually, Korean bands are...

accomplished in music.

We're just as talented...

and stylish.

I hope we can show everything we've got through this show.

Sometimes, I joke to myself,

"How important is rock?"

"Is band music important?"

Even I think about this.

But band music is awesome.

It's got the style that I can't put into words.

I hope...

you make sure people see that.

I think there are many stereotypes about bands.

I want to challenge...

the root of the fixed ideas.

I want to find a charming band that is different...

from what people traditionally think of a band is like.

The band that makes you think they're the only one...

who can play their unique music.

They'll give me a feeling...

that I have to choose them right away.

I have to find a band...

that makes me think they're cool immediately...

based on their musical talent and performances.

If it's a good band,

I'll fall for their charm naturally.

The band that opens your heart with their music.

I'll choose a team that touches my heart.

We finally have...

such a meaningful show in Korea.

I hope they show their determination.

Since we're looking to groom a global band,

their musical talent is important.

Their other qualities matter too.

They should keep their own color...

and core music style.

We're going to be the public's eyes and ears...

and work hard to find the music and the band...

that everyone will like.

Please trust us.

Let's have the next band on stage.

SURL.

It's SURL. - Finally, it's them.

I really wanted to see SURL's performance.

Congratulations. Your dream came true.

I wondered why they were here.

They're already well-known.

I'm also a huge fan. I wonder what they're doing here.

Actually, as for SURL,

I don't see why they're here.

Right. They're such a popular band.

They're a favorite to win.

Hello.

Our band is run by tigers.

We're SURL. Nice to meet you.

I thought I'd be more nervous.

For some reason, I'm not nervous at all.

Let's have the next band.

It's D82.

Okay.

They're so sick. - What?

They're an amazing band.

Han Seung Yun's band. - Han Seung Yun's band.

It's not fair that he's also handsome.

He looks cool even when he walks.

He looks a little threatening.

I can't easily talk to him.

He has an aura.

What are you doing?

What are you doing? - I stayed up all night.

Don't lie down here. Get up.

Harder.

I should listen to him well.

Yes! Great Seoul Invasion!

I know him.

He's always been that energetic since high school.

Great Seoul Invasion!

I wanted to paint it.

I can't wait to see their performance.

I'm curious about this band.

I'm excited about their performance.

They formed the band to be on our show.

I've only heard Seung Yun sing, but not as a band.

Lunafly?

Doesn't he have a Japanese vibe?

What if he's actually Japanese?

He doesn't seem ordinary.

Doesn't he remind you of YUMDDA?

Is this "Show Me the Money" starting from this point?

I see him as YUMDDA now because of you.

Really?

It's their first time connecting with the audience.

Jukjae, have you heard of this song?

You're awesome!

They're cheering for us on the outside,

but actually, they must be keeping an eye on us.

Their performance was overwhelming.

The keyboard player looked so scary,

but this is how he played the keyboard.

He was so cool.

He's a legend.

He's so famous in Seoul Institute of the Arts.

His blue hair and sunglasses are just perfect.

It suits him. - It really does.

The drummer is good. - He was amazing.

We're a rookie band called D82.

Nice to meet you.

Can you tell us about the song?

It's the title track of my first album as a solo artist.

It's called "Lovender".

I started my music career in a band,

so I always dreamed about creating a band.

I took the opportunity to form a band called 82.

Thank you. - I see.

All of you are talented instrument players.

The keyboardist was especially impressive.

Jukjae kept using honorifics for him,

but as far as I know,

he's younger than Jukjae.
