The MCs asked him if he made money from the royalties for the song. Hyojung then surprised Yoo Hee Yeol even further by sharing that he has about four songs to copyright.
Oh My Girl's Hyojung has actually created many aegyo songs. He then revealed what aegyo songs he composed along with the royalties he earned on KBS 2TV's “Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook” last December 11 episode. The following is a compilation of the aegyo song he created.
Initially, host Yoo Hee Yeol commented, "I was surprised to hear that Hyojung was the one who wrote this famous song: 'Be Mine Song'." Hyojung then confirmed it. Hearing this, Yoo Hee Yeol asked in amazement, "Did you compose it on sheet music at home?"
Hyojung then laughed, “No, I don't use music. I make it with the chords on the piano first, and then I add the melody on top. But it ended up being a kind of aegyo song. " Yoo Hee Yeol then praised that the song had become a big hit. He was also curious about the copyright of this song.
“This song is really a big hit, even among the hit songs. Do you own the copyright for this song? " asked Yoo Hee Yeol. When Hyojung shared that he did, Yoo Hee Yeol asked if he made money from the song's royalties. Hyojung then surprised Yoo Hee Yeol even further by sharing that he has about four songs to copyright.
"There are songs 'Ottoke', 'Yam Yam Song', and 'Be Mine Song'. I also composed the theme song for the (radio show) 'Starry Night', "said Hyojung, who later explained the royalty. "I do get royalties, but the amount reaches around 10,000 won (around Rp. 129 thousand) a month. In a good month, I make around 10,000 won, and in a month when I earn less, I make around 6,000 (around Rp. 77 thousand) to 7,000 won (around Rp. 90 thousand), "he explained.
Yoo Hee Yeol said with a laugh, “But still, the most important thing is that you write the songs. It really means that you own the song that is copyrighted in your name. " After asking Hyojung to sing a short snippet of "Ottoke", Yoo Hee Yeol immediately recognized the song and exclaimed, "Hyojung, you wrote that too?" The emcee concluded in awe, "That's amazing."
