Olleh Music Report- Drawing the Line



► Royal Pirates! They’ve refreshingly opened up 2014 with rock music. The three men who have come back with music unique to them, the Royal Pirates!

The Royal Pirates have started making plans in the music industry with their album title song “Drawing the Line”. The boys have prepared their first mini album as singer-songwriters, putting all their passion in the music. Unbound by the walls of genre, the Korean-American global band Royal Pirates and Producer Kim Taesung have teamed up to make music fitting for this generation so timeless that anyone in the world can listen and enjoy.



► ALBUM. Royal Pirates: Drawing the Line
Royal Pirates make music based on rock that crosses over with many other genres to create a trendy and creative sound. All members are singer-songwriters, a band with an unstoppable passion towards music whose future in music is truly something to anticipate. This time around, they couple a rhythmical guitar performance with energy-filled drumming to make a light and groovy R&B rock style. Lead vocal Moon’s unique tone and falsetto play a key part in how the Royal Pirates can face this young generation with no hesitations and express truthful love through this song.

Zanybros producer “Hong WonKi” has hold of a megaphone, and the Royal Pirates’ personalities and their hidden acting talents can be seen through this witty music video. The Royal Pirates, who have opened their port cannons to 2014 with “Drawing the Line”, are riding on the sea of music towards the world with their mellow music and the message that they will continue forward with endless hard work.

► STORY. The Royal Pirates themselves introduce the MV shooting place!
Hello Olleh Music family! This time the Royal Pirates have comeback with a new mini album that is sure to get your blood pumping. The title song “Drawing the Line” shows us how we are, and to add some fun under the suggestions of producer Hong Wonki we made a broadcast-like MV, using the one-scene-one-take method for the vividly shot drama version, and showing the band as we are for the band version. Though we shot twice the amount, we’ll take everyone into the making of the drama version, where the laughter never stopped.

► VIDEO. Royal Pirates MV Shoot!
J: It’s fun. It’d be great if I could shoot it freely/naturally.
M: He’s cool. But I’m looking at the models next to James more. h h
M: This song is… about a bad-boy who… is chasing after an even badder girl.


This is Royal Pirates’ Music Video set.
Broadcast gone wrong, ad shooting set, talk show studio, and dressing room etc.; all these sets are waiting for the members.


"Does my hair look good today?" Caring Moon sends a picture to his mother. James is in the middle of his outfit check~


Fashion King James has arrived!!!
James and beautiful female models boldly garb edgy fashion in order to shoot the ad!!
James’ imposing look!


Ta-da!!!!! The female models’ imposing looking backs make an entrance~~~
Is it a Beauty and the Beast concept? James is working hard to enjoy the shooting!
This Royal Pirates music video shows off their many friendships,
These two people acting as models are actually part of the agency…
“King of Dramas” and “Good Doctor“‘s Ha Kyuwon, and Hot Issue model Lee Jini.


While waiting between sets Royal Pirates stop to chat and wait it out.


The two most difficult sets to shoot today were these, which were in succession.

From the dressing room to the talk show scene, all people were in persona.
Moon especially, who starts at the dressing room and appears in the talk show scene, needs to get his timing just right and runs from place to place; he did a lot of running today.


Between shots Sooyoon plays by taking selcas. Sooyoon, who has been crowned Selca King!


After the one-scene-one-take, monitoring all the NGs was the funnest! The laughter never stopped!


Can you feel the liveliness of the studio? Although it was the last scene the passion was hotter than the first!!


This is how the shooting went, from the very last scene.
It was a shoot for a music video but like a live broadcast, the Royal Pirates used passion to perform!
On top of that, the appearance of a good friend made everything all the more enjoyable and fun!
