Kopchanjeongol

《Annyounghashi-mu-nikka?》(Doremi DRMCD1596；1999 Korea)

This is the debut album of Kopchangjeongol which is the first Japanese rock band in South Korea formally. It is psychedelic and hard rock sound. This CD has Korean evergreen rock hits and good old Korean songs nobody knows and includes two original songs written by Yukie. CD producer is Shin Dea Chul who is the leader of the famous rock band Sinawe (he also played guitar and chorus).
The band recorded two original songs by demand of the record company. But just before sale, the authorities concerned said that he could not permit songs written by Japanese person. And he suggested that it was OK if you would change the name of composer to Korean person who exists. So the name of the band’s manager is written on composer of two songs.
