(Artist) Lee Hi & (ex)SuPearls
« on: July 24, 2012, 11:58:38 AM »


SuPearls became a famous group on the singing contest Kpop Star. The current group signed by YG consists of contestants Lee Ha Yi, Lee Seung Joo, Lee Jung Mi and Michelle Lee. Lee Ha Yi was signed to replace the original SuPearls member Park Ji Min who won the competition and chose to join JYPE, thus unable to join the group. Lee Ha Yi was the runner up on the show.

Their debut is planned for September 2012! :o


Performance of FAME (with Park Ji Min instead of Lee Ha Yi)




Lee Ha Yi




Good Bye Baby with Park Ji Min


Rolling in the Deep


Mercy


- Placed 2nd in Kpop Star
- Topped the online voting for the show for 6 consecutive weeks
- Known for looking like she has no energy in person, until it's time to sing :D

Lee Seung Joo



No solo perf vids :( But this is awesome


- Was pretty much ignored in the edit of the show until the formation of SuPearls. SuPearls is lucky for both us and her because she deserves attention :P

Lee Jung Mi

(on the right)


Video where, if I recall correctly, JYP asks why she chose the song she did, she says because she had to transfer schools cuz friends were giving her a hard time for being on the show. JYP is giving her criticism for not conveying emotions in her singing. (I don't remember what the comments after the main performance say.)



- Considers herself the ordinary looking SuPearl :P
- Made me cry on the show by showing courage at an opportune moment. JYP, YG and SME were choosing their 'wild cards' to progress forward on the show. At the end of their selection, judge BoA still had one card left, but since the selection was over and the contestants had failed to impress her, it seemed the card would remain unused. Everyone was feeling defeated and was ready to leave the stage, it was thought to be all over. But at the last moment, this girl raised her arm in the back row and asked to sing one more time for BoA's card. She was successful. I don't know why I found it so emotional, maybe knowing that she was bullied but still had the courage to follow her dreams, and then had the courage to step up when she realized that it's not over till it's over. I admire her guts.

Lee Michelle




At first a Korean song, then Halo at 3:20


- Biracial Korean, father is black.
- There was some drama about her attitude being bad because she developed problems with her throat, but was still talking and messing about, as if she wasn't taking resting seriously. But it's obvious that she loves singing.

A fan article about the group:

Pics from tumblr, google.



Looking forward to the debut of an obviously talented vocal group :3
Might they be the younger Brown Eyed Girls?? Who knows.

Anyone else intrigued by the SuPearls? :P

YG Entertainment, one of Korea’s top entertainment agencies, is busy getting ready to debut their newest rookie stars before the year is up.

A senior representative at YG recently informed StarNews on August 13th, “SuPearls will stand before the fans in September, and the new girl group, in October.”

A picture from 10 days ago:



Have to comment that it seems YG isn't making them lose weight or anything, Michelle Lee still looks the same or even heavier. So I guess they'll be 100% a singing unit, not even trying that dancing thing keke

Debut MV 1,2,3,4 is out 8)



I like the song. Her movement is very chillax, even awkward, but that's what happens when you're primarily a singer and not a dancer. The attitude is all in her eyes, tbh. Looking forward to live stages >_<

On January 15, YG Entertainment released one picture under the title “Kim Ji Soo- YG New Artists.” The agency introduced her as “mystery girl #2” during the first half of last year. She’s born in 1995 and is 18 years old. She excels at both singing and dancing. Kim Ji Soo is the first confirmed member of YG’s upcoming girl group.

The new girl group (originally consisting of 7 girls) made an unofficial debut through Lee Hi’s single “Scarecrow” where they pitched in during the chorus. In a surprising move, YG later mentioned that 1 or 2 girls from the group will be dropped and it turns out that 1 of the girls in the picture will no longer be part of the group.

Currently, the new girl group will consist of 5 members. Nothing regarding the debut date has been mentioned, which is causing much anticipation from fans and industry insiders because YG has become one of the most influential agencies within K-Pop.

btw, does anyone with really good hearing tell if the girl in G-Dragon's "Without You" song is Lee Hi? i feel like at some parts it sounds like her, but in most parts it doesn't.

Kim Ji Soo and the girl from G-Dragon's song are not from this upcoming YG group, but another one that has a thread here: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=32808.0


Basically, YG has two upcoming girl groups: SuPearls from Kpop Star, and the yet unnamed group with a mix of girls whom we don't know o-o

Well it appears that the 3 SuPearls members that aren't Lee Hi all got the boot from YG and the group has been disbanded.

:/

But if there are rumours of their stuff elsewhere, I guess I could post them here. But other than that, this can be the Lee Hi thread...

Shame it's only an intro, it sounds great! Hopefully the rest of the album will be just as good.

Just checked the album out, and it's aight. The last two tracks are too deep in the tedious power ballad territory for me to enjoy them too much. "It's Over" kinda grew on me when I just listened to it without all the MV fluff, but "Special" is a pretty amazing low-key track. Featuring the elusive YG wunderkind Jennie Kim (her rapping is pretty simple here, but it fits) and lyrics penned by Tablo, too. It's just a really good track.

Teaser pic for "Rose", a Teddy Park-composed tune and the title track for First Love Part 2... dropping March 28th.

"Special"s quickly become one of my fave kpop tracks of the year so far, hoping for some more goodness. :thumbup

Lee Michelle's debut is out, and it's powerful!




Not my genre (ballad) but the video made me tear up... Good luck Lee Michelle :thumbup


No news of the other members I think :/
