Sungri, 'Trotier' August issue pre-orders sold out in the shortest period of time

Singer Sungri has completed the pre-order sales for the August issue of the global K-Trot magazine 'TROTIER' in the shortest period ever. This August issue, which features four different cover versions (Types A, B, C, and D) capturing Sungri's diverse charms, saw all prepared stock sold out during the pre-order period held from July 8 to 22.

At the center of this sell-out was Sungri's official fan cafe, 'Sungrihakja.' Beyond individual purchases for collection, fans went beyond mere sales records by initiating a donation-based purchase relay. This donation activity, driven by the fandom's voluntary participation, added deeper meaning to this sell-out.

A 10-Year Record Captured Under the 'STAND TALL' Concept

'TROTIER August Issue: Sungri Edition' was planned under the concept 'STAND TALL: Sungri's stage, made even stronger by walking a long path.' It captures the 10 years Sungri has traveled, from his debut as the main vocalist of an idol group to establishing himself as a trot artist today. This issue records his musical journey and stage philosophy through in-depth interviews and concept pictorials.

In the interview, Sungri explained his unique vocal design method. He revealed the secrets behind his vocals, which oscillate between a clear, beautiful voice and a soulful, rich tone, as well as his method of utilizing stage space to maintain steady vocal volume even during intense dance-trot performances. This demonstrates the process through which he has painstakingly built his own unique sound over a long period.

Confessions of Unknown Days and Sincerity Toward the Fandom

The pictorial and interview also capture the human side of Kim Sungri behind the scenes. It includes inner stories that had not been revealed before, such as the times he had to endure a long period of obscurity and the experiences of failing auditions multiple times. The core narrative of this issue is his current self, achieved after silently enduring those times.

He also expressed his affection for the fandom 'Sungrihakja,' who has stayed by his side for 10 years. Through the interview, Sungri conveyed his gratitude toward his fans and his extraordinary filial piety toward his mother. TROTIER expressed gratitude for the support of Sungri and Sungrihakja, stating that they will continue to present content that records the authenticity of K-Trot artists.
