Trivia

• dong-tepo no.1's overlays feature Fireboy in his debut appearance.
• dong-tepo no.1's title is based on Taepodong-1 (대포동 1호), a three-stage technology demonstrator of an intermediate-range ballistic missile developed by North Korea.
  • dong-tepo no.1's title was changed to rocket factory when beatmania IIDX 2nd style was released in Korea (under the beatstage II 2nd style title). However, despite the title change, the overlays still retain its original title.
    • rocket factory's title card could still be found unused in beatmania IIDX 3rd style and 9th style.
• dong-tepo no.1 received LIGHT charts in beatmania IIDX 3rd style.

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

dj nagureo, who supported 2nd style from a somewhat distanced perspective of deciding the direction of the songs and artists this time around, worked through his schedule to provide us with this song.
This is the only song that I could not clear on NORMAL, and I think it's the hardest seven star song we have.
Today, I received comments from nagureo.
"dong-tepo no.1 wasn't the heinous game you all know, but I created it after researching how to help all of you BEMANI fans to level up your skill further.
We will continue to make more things like dong-tepo in the game, so please look forward to it."

Video Production Information

VJ GYO

Many players have no personal experience with the ultimate in difficulty, the seven star song. This song from dj nagureo seems to have been waiting for players to attain that personal dimension higher than TENGOKU. It's labeled as techno, but it doesn't really lend itself to any single description, and the more you listen to the song the more influences it seems to draw on. GOLI considered a particularly funny kind of technopop, so he decided to let the character from the 4KEYS mode song select screen, Fireboy (or FB for short) make an appearance in this song.
