Personal experience
Early Years
1. When Bai Qinggang was 9 years old, he grew up in his grandmother's house because his parents went to work in Korea and Russia. Although the absence of his parents made him feel lonely from time to time, he never showed it in front of everyone. Instead, he is very open about everything and is happy to help his classmates, so he is very popular in his class.
2. Bai Qinggang, who grew up in front of everyone, likes to show his talents, such as singing and dancing.
(1) In elementary school, he gave his class tapes of songs he had recorded to listen to.
(2) He told in an interview that he was the first to raise his hand to dance in front of the class during a performance once.
3. Not only was he famous at school for his ability to sing and dance, but he was also notable for his naughty nature from a young age. He mentioned in one of his YTN interviews, "I was so naughty then that even teachers who didn't know me knew my name."
Youth
1. In 2004, he started attending the POP Modern Music Academy in Yanji. At POP he was the student president.POP's principal said in one of the Yanji TV interviews, "Other people are sloppy in studying music, but what stands out about him is that he has the perseverance to stick to everything he wants to do."
2. In order to gain stage experience, he participated in countless singing competitions, including those sponsored by regional TV stations, and won a number of awards.
3, Although he won many awards, he had very few opportunities to perform on stage due to many factors. In order to gain more stage experience and to earn a living, he resolved to sing in bars. He began to sing in bars at the age of 19, and his young age in the three years of bar life not only learned a rare stage experience, but also learned to do independent, self-reliant, although living in a mechanical and boring environment, as always, he insisted on his dream.
4, once he happened to see on the Internet to publicize a talent show for everyone to participate. That talent show is the South Korean MBC hosted in the global selection of singing talent "great birth", the program for the first time with the previous talent show is different from the "no matter what nationality can participate in". He thought it was an opportunity. However, his mother was adamantly opposed to his participation in the Korean talent show, saying, "You know that many Koreans are great singers, so what if you go to Korea to participate? How many Korean songs do you know? It's useless to go, you'll be eliminated." He replied, "I have my own dreams and this is my best and last chance. If I get eliminated this time, I'll stop mentioning my dream of being a singer in front of you and just go back to my ordinary life and go to college too." After hearing that his mother took a step back and let him go for his chance at the talent show.
5. The China regional talent show was held in Qingdao, Shandong Province. In order to realize his dream, he and his music-loving friends took a 36-hour train ride from Yanji to Qingdao to take part in the talent show.
Casting experience
On November 5, 2010, a young Korean man from Yanji, China, stood out in the preliminaries for the Chinese region on MBC's "Birth of Greatness," a large-scale talent show for singers in South Korea. He was born with a good voice and rich stage experience, which helped him pass the preliminary rounds and join the great camp.
In episode 12 (aired on February 18, 2011), Bai Qinggang was accepted by Kim Tae Won as a "disciple" and became the only Chinese contestant in the top 20. In the following episodes of the show, Bai Qingang played well, and in the middle evaluation, he entered the top twelve with the first place, and successfully entered the live broadcast. The rules for the live broadcast were as follows: the judges' scores accounted for 30 percent of the overall results, while viewers in front of their TVs voted by text message for the remaining 70 percent.
Episode 19 (aired on 2011.04.08) featured the first live broadcast of the Top 12, in which the contestants reinterpreted Korean hits from the 1980s and 1990s in their own styles. Baek Ching Gang used her unique beautiful and clear voice to perform the soprano part of NaMi's "Sad Marriage" and received unanimous praise from the judges, scoring 36.2 out of 40 plus the number of viewers' votes (about 300,000+ votes) for the first place in the total score among the 12 contestants, and successfully advancing to the Top 10.
The Top 10 Mission is "Top 100 English songs that Koreans love". Baek Ching Gang's English song was a burden for him because he had never sung an English song before, but he sang "Withoutyou" in the mission, and even though he was pointed out by one of the judges that his pronunciation was not accurate, he still managed to advance to the top 8 with his unique and charming voice.
The top 8 mission is "Idol Mission" and Bai Qinggang chose G-dragon's "Heartbreaker". brought a different meaning to him. Known as "China's original stone" with lyrical songs to highlight his unique voice, and "Heartbreaker" highlights the strength of his singing and dancing, although the live broadcast of the earphone fell off (earphone) a small accident, but his unique self-confidence and adaptability in the absence of earphones in the state of excellence to complete the stage, to avoid mistakes, and this time his singing and dancing combination was very perfect. The singer and the dancer combined perfectly, and was well received by the audience, and successfully advanced to the top 6.
The top 6 Mission was "Challenging the Songs of Korean National Singer Jo Yong Pil", Bai Qinggang chose the song "Unknown World", which is very difficult to sing with high notes from the beginning to the end, but the members of Resurrection helped him to choose the right song because they know Bai Qinggang is good at making high notes. The band's performance was a great success and they were able to get to the top 5.
The top 5 mission was "Song River Festival", Baek Ching Gang's mentor Kim Tae Won helped him choose Lee Sun Ji's "To J", which was originally a lyrical song, but this time Baek Ching Gang performed a rock version of "To J" and interacted with the band, and this time, as usual, he succeeded in advancing to the top 4 with the audience's support.
The top 4 Mission is "the best song of my life", Bai Qinggang 4th grade (11 years old) happened to watch H.O.T.'s "Wearethefuture" on TV, and as we all know, it's a popular song for teenagers to sing and dance to. It was a big "visual impact" for Bai Qinggang at that time, and he had a dream of becoming a good singer, so he chose this dance song, which should have been sung by 5 people, but he finished the whole song by himself, even though some judges pointed out that they should distinguish between what they wanted to sing and what they should sing, but he still managed to advance to the top 3 with excellent results. The singer has been in the top 3 of the competition for a long time.
The mission of the top 3 was to sing the OST song of a movie or drama, and Kim Tae Won helped him to choose the OST of the movie 'The King's Man', Lee Seon Hee's 'In-Law', saying, "This time, when you sing the high notes, you can do it with your own nasal voice, so why? I know that you can only use a number of nasal tones before singing the high part, and the way you're struggling a lot to control your nasal tones, the viewers might feel even more uncomfortable watching it." Kim Tae Won couldn't be there for this competition due to other schedules, and resurrecting former vocalist Park Wan Gyu as a judge in his place, he said, "I think you're getting more and more manly when it comes to singing lyrical songs." He said, "I think you're becoming more manly lyrically." This shows that he's becoming more mature lyrically. In addition, there was another mission added to the show, which was to "sing with other singers", and Bai Qinggang chose to sing "Father" with Kim Kyung-ho, which was well received and successfully advanced to the finals.
The two contestants each sang two songs on the final day, and Baek sang BigMama's 'Remnant' (also known as 'Dead Heart'), and then Kim Tae Won's 'Farewell is like a Star', which he wrote the lyrics for. The song "Separation is like a star" became Baek's first song on his own, and he won the finals by more than 20,000 votes from the audience over Lee Tae-kwon, thus realizing his first step into "Korean Dream".
