Akdong Musician Commemorates Hangeul Day With 'Ga Na Da Together'

The brother and sister duo, Akdong Musician (Lee Chan Hyuk and Lee Soo Hyun), will be releasing a new single titled  "Ga Na Da Together" in honor of Hangeul Day on Friday, October 9th.

The commemoration song will release on AKMU's respective social media networks such as their official Youtube and Facebook pages.

The production of "Ga Na Da Together" was a joint project of YG Entertainment with Woori Card to create a public campaign and raise awareness of the special holiday.

The song "Ga Na Da together" features a very unique chorus in Korean as both Chan Hyuk and Soo Hyun sing the whole alphabet ("Ga Na Da Ra Ma Ba Sa Ah Ja Cha Ka Ta Pa Ha") in the song.

As people commemorate Hangeul Day, the collaboration hopes that this becomes a factor for foreigners and Koreans to be more drawn into the language. With that, Akdong Musician hopes that this could be a new start to a newfound appreciation.

EXO Have Fun Riding Roller Coasters At Lotte World

Lotte World has released a short video which shows all nine EXO members having blast while trying out the roller coasters and other rides at the popular theme park in Seoul, South Korea.

The video, titled 'EXO Live in LOTTEWORLD," is a treat to watch because of how happy the members looked during their fun time at the amusement park.

We see the boy group screaming their hearts out at the French Revolution roller coaster, a super-fast ride that rotates for up to 540 degrees in some portions and even goes through buildings, which adds to the excitement.

The EXO boys then tried out the Conquistador, a Viking ride that swings back and forth and almost reaches the ceiling of Lotte World at its highest point.

As a break from all the heart-pumping rides, the EXO members then take a leisurely whirl at the Camelot Carrousel.

At the end of the 30-second video, the message "Live Adventure in Lotte World" appears, which seems to suggest more videos coming out to show the members touring the amusement park.

EXO is preparing to debut in Japan with the single album Love Me Right - Romantic Universe scheduled to drop on November 10. The Korean version of "Love Me Right" was previously promoted by the group in June as part of the Love Me Right repackaged album, which sold more than 1 million copies.
