Fin.K.L released a "decimalized" or "half" album (which usually signifies either a limited or special release, such as a cover album or a themed record). Their first, their 2.5, was released on November 24, 1999, and their two most famous songs from this album were "나의 왕자님께 ("To My Prince")", a ballad, and "White", a seasonal pop song. S.P.E.C.I.A.L. also contained a remake version of "인디언 인형처럼" ("Like An Indian Doll"), a popular song sung by Nami (나미) in 1989. No music videos were made in support of the album's release. The album sold in excess of 340,000 copies. Because of its release date, Fin.K.L created a "winter" theme for their performances and dressed in wintry outfits to promote "White". To complete the theme, they often had fake snow falling during their "White" performances; however, this created a problem in that the snow was quite slippery, causing members and back-up dancers to slip and even occasionally fall. Due to the limited release of the album, Fin.K.L has a shorter promotion schedule. However, both of these 1999 albums helped Fin K.L win a "대상" (Daesang, the Korean equivalent of a Grammy) at the end of the year. Credits: Wikipedia Details: Coming Soon! |
