Auto Drania CEO Defends Business Practices
24 April 4969


CHEONSSU: Responding to recent accusations levied by the leftist newspaper, The Worker, the Auto Drania CEO, Isaac Park, has issued a statment in defense of his company's operations.

"We at Auto Drania continue to work towards a full recovery of what was lost to communism in the first half of the century. We are among the lucky ones, those who survived and can be here today reviving something that thrived before the revolution. Auto Drania was the fastest growing automobile manufacturer in the Dranian Federation and we earned that title while fighting against extremely influential market giants like Muhandae.

Auto Drania has always been an employee-centered operation. As we did under the Federation, Auto Drania enforces a policy that requires 50% of our corporate board to include workers. Additionally, contrary to the lies presented by The Worker, we are not an anti-union company and we believe that the workers' union plays an important role in giving our employees a strong voice. The union helps articulate and vocalize workers' concerns, bringing them to the attention of management and allowing us to make our company even better. Those unions help lead negotiations between managers and workers to determine better benefits and working environment. It is hard to imagine how Auto Drania would operate without the unions and without the representation of workers in our corporate decision-making. Without the workers there is no Auto Drania.

The Worker is not reporting on factual information and it is unfortunate that such poor journalistic integrity is acceptable from one of this nation's largest news publications. We hope that The Worker rescinds in statements made against Auto Drania and issues a correction regarding their false claims."

Supporters feel rather sad and disheartened as Dynasty releases its last album "Spring Breeze". The extended play consists of 5 original songs, with "Spring Breeze" as the title track.

Since this will be the group's last music release, a lot of emotion and sentiment has been poured into the creation of this album. Messages of love, memories, bittersweet goodbyes, and parting resonates through the five compositions.

The album also include the collaboration single of the group with VICTA entitled "Hi Hello", which was released prior to the announcement of the album as a part of a separate project and promotion.

The latter sparked a sense of unity with the fans of the two groups, despite the fiery quarrels happening between the two in various online spaces of the country.

The music video for "Spring Breeze" is also released, which you can watch here.

Tracklist:
1. Destiny (intro)

5. Royal
6. Hi Hello (ft. VICTA)

The group has also announced its farewell concert tour to happen in Dankuk and Bianjie, in order to give an opportunity of giving a proper goodbye to Royals — the ever-supportive fandom of the group.

Despite the announcement of the management disproving the rumors of contract renewal, a fraction of fans are actively protesting to push talks with the involved agencies for the said topic. However, some agencies have shown disinterest with the matter, since upcoming plans have been prepared ahead for their respective members.

Moreover, idol enthusiasts and music critics alike have raised the question of the impact that their absence would bring to the Kyo idol wave, considering the fact that they are a unique variation of the idol model. People are speculating that the wave has been entering a drastic change since the group's formation, especially since RBC has announced plans for a second installation of Idol Nation 101.

Regarding the group's future, the members have disclosed in various interviews on what they are expecting beyond their time in Dynasty. Some have opened on branching out to the different aspect of the entertainment industry, such as acting and theatre.

Their final concert tour "See You Again" has been announced along with the release of their last album "Spring Breeze".



Fans have described the concert as a rollercoaster, feeling a mix of happiness and sadness, bringing them in tears all around the duration of the event.

What put the arenas to a sobbing mess is the last segment of the show, where the 11 members sang their songs from their last album along with some heartful ballads accompanied by a live arrangement.

After their performances are concluded, the members gave their fans a last message one-by-one as members of Dynasty.

The group's center Heo Seokjin tearfully expresses his gratitude to Royals — Dynasty's fans.

Heo Seokjin:
Despite the short time that we had, a lot of memories have been made. We learned many things in a span of 3 years, including the unconditional love and appreciation that you, our fans, have given to us. We hope that we have been able to reciprocate your undying support with our hardwork and determination.

Days after the conclusion of the concert tour, the group has been able to hold a small celebration for the group's third anniversary through their last live, in which the group reminisced their memories together.

On November 1, 4969, the group officially disbanded.

3 years with Dynasty: a look back


Kyo-pop idol group Dynasty

Dynasty was an 11-member boy group formed through RBC's "Idol Nation 101" in collaboration with RSE. It was an inter-agency effort with various entertainment companies to form an 11-member boy group from a pool of 101 trainees. The lineup, group name, and concept, was determined by the voting audience.

The Top 11 finalists of the show then formed the said group with the members being:

01. Mystery Heo Seokjin
02. Jive Kang Jimin
03. MMM Min Jihoon
04. Northern Star Yang Kyungho
05. HMW Yoo Hyunjin
06. KK Music Kageyama Yuri
07. KK Music Yokoyama Jun
08. Independent Yurhaci
09. D Label Jung Emmanuel
10. Northern Star Son Hyunmin
11. Drania Music Kim Enrique

The group released a "Shimmer Trilogy" of mini-albums, followed by two Kunikata releases that were heavily promoted in Bianjie, becoming a rising musical act in both countries.

In celebration with their second anniversary, the group released a studio album and had a collaboration with idol group VICTA.

Since the conception of the national music chart Cherry Pick, the group has maintained a consistent placement in the Ultimate Top 10, reaffirming their status as national idols.

All of this concludes that Dynasty was a force to be reckoned with in the Dranian music industry, specifically in the Kyo-pop idol wave.

What does the future hold?

Idol enthusiasts and musical critics alike have been speculating that Dynasty has left a huge impact in the country's music and pop culture.

A post from an idol fan forum says:
Ever since the Note War between VICTA and Dynasty started, the Kyo-pop idol wave has never been the same. It triggered the need for something like Cherry Pick to be established, creating a formal competition not only between the two groups, but also with all the rising musical acts of Dankuk. Moreover, Dynasty is a result of a unique variation of the idol model. Never had the fans thought of a group created from a reality show, specifically in such a large scale like Idol Nation 101 has successfully attempted.

Cherry Pick, the national music chart

The trend of idols can be attributed to the reemergence of the idol model during late-UCCR era, wherein these type of acts have been spontaneously supported by state enterprises, allowing the legendary idol group DEF to further the country's influence in Dovani with their appeal.

After the dissolution of the group, VICTA and Dynasty have been taking from their contributions aiming to keep their impact and legacy.

A lot of things is a possibility in the Kyo idol wave. It's only a matter of time that an influx of creative ideas would storm and therefore create a new generation of these kind of music acts.

President Yoon Taejin Shows Interest on Music and Performing Arts Schools in the Country
January 29, 4972

President Yoon Taejin has expressed his interest on educational institutions specializing in music and performance arts in the country, emphasizing the fact that the Rowiet or Kyoryu wave is still an ongoing phenomenon that has given Dankuk a socioeconomic, cultural, and political advantage within Dovani and if not, Terra as well. In order for such wave to prosper and bring the country more advantages, further development of the establishments concerned with the prevalence of the Kyoryu wave must be thoroughly assessed and proper government-initiated support for it to reach its optimal status.


A music school in Seongtaek

President Yoon plans to introduce a "diagnostics examination" that will be put in place for the graduating students of said schools, wherein the participating students would perform a recital in front of various talent and entertainment scouts in the country, allowing said students to be able to sign in an agency to kickstart their career. Upon its implementation, it would be expected that a lot of aspiring dreamers would realize their dream of becoming a part of the Dranian entertainment industry, and the ever-rising Kyoryu wave. This exam isn't limited to acts like singers, soloists, and idols. It would also encourage a new wave of actors (theatre, TV, and cinema), instrumentalists, and artists to emerge.


Yoon Taejin, President of Dankuk

Various circle, both fans and experts, have seen the need of a new generation of acts as the Kyoryu wave continues to flourish. Both the people and the government recognizes the Wave as a soft power that must be used by the government to allow the economy to grow with its mainstream cultural exports such as these.


One of the most famous exports of the Kyoryu wave is the idol model, along with Kyo and Draniano media and cinema

With that being said, the President sets this as one of the administration's primary goals for the betterment of Dranian society.
