Jyp's Wonder Girls (원더걸스) Official Thread 2

[kimicka13]

Omona! Congratulations Sunmi Ah!!! I'm so proud of you.

Those young pics of Sunmi and Sohee are so cute!

The pics of Leader Min, Yenny, and Binnie are so hot! I think this proves that Yenny is not "fat" that dress looks really good on her. And I think, Binnie's shirt makes her look bigger, it's a loose type of shirt, I've worn a shirt that's similar, and it does make you seem bigger. But she still looks Hot! I don't like Sunye's dress for my personal style, but I think that Sun rocks it! :)And sad that only the three of them could go, and not Sohee and Lim. But, they weren't old enough. So yeah.

Wonder Girls Fighting!

These Korean bloggers posted pics + videos of the clubbing scene inside during the night.

No sight of WG or the other celebs. They must have retreated to a private room, if at all.

BTW I'm not sure the maknaes skipped the event due to age limitations. If so, shouldn't be they too young for TigerHeat (Los Angeles) as well?

Perhaps their parents objected this time. But methinks JYP Korea was perhaps more aware of Korean sensitivities, while protecting WG's domestic image.

The earlier departure flight to America for them was probably a convenient excuse as well.

I also read Korean news article that said JYP was still stuck in America with work or something, & thus failed to turn up for the product launch & the Superstar K2 show (where he is a judge). Maybe that's why JANEyjk didn't fly over either.

I also checked Einstein_MCP's twitter.

He is demurring in tweeting any WG pics, but nonetheless shared the JYP Gorilla (featured in the San E gag photos).

His Yfrog stream has a couple more such poses http://www.yfrog.com...me=einstein_mcp

Re-translating some of Yoobin's earlier tweets from the Chinese version (done by a Baidu poster).

I find her style to be the most colloquial among WG, & consequently her text to sprout the most gibberish when using Google Translate.

The Chinese translation here is therefore very conversational, its exact meaning sometimes unclear without knowing the context.

Still, I note that Binnie didn't specifically mention WG heading on to China, unlike what the Taiwan WF told me about her tweets.

Chinese translations: 遺莣嘚の詛咒 @ Baidu

Who is the most networked among idol singers? missA member MIN feels duty-bound

Korea Star Daily update: 2010/10/14 16:59

missA member MIN is now recognized as the most networked among idol singers.

MIN's 8-year apprenticeship before debuting is already an astonishing feat. In particular, she is good friends with 2AM leader Jo Kwon & WONDERGIRLS leader Sunye from the same company. She also shares a close bond with Jay Park, 4MINUTE Hyuna & others. One cannot help but gasp at MIN's vast contacts after 8 years as a trainee. But they had been all friends from the same management company. In MIN's latest revealed photos, she is seen to be very chummy with KARA's Nicole, SNSD's Hyoyeon & 2NE1 leader CL. It genuinely validates MIN's ultra-wide contacts among idol singers. Most strikingly is her & SNSD Hyoyeon. Pre-debut, both had been students at the same dance school, where they developed a deep friendship. Netizens who saw these photos were full of admiration: "It is amazing to have such a wide network of contacts!" "Number 1 in the idol kingdom!" & so on. [TVDaily reporter Li Shanmei]

i dont want to sound like a party pooper but sunyes style is really questionable at times.

i understand shes the more conservative type within the group but some of the dresses she chooses are really unflattering like they're either too long which makes her look short .. and i dont only say this for one or two outfits but quite a number and im pretty sure the girls get to choose what they want to wear ...

haha omg i hope i didnt come across anti but just wanted to get that out there, i really like her but yeh jus her outfits aren't flattering to her small figure sometimes .. >.<

congratz sunmi!

and  cant wait for wg's new album to drop and their korean comeback.

i hope they get an awesome song, i wish jyp would change up the singer lineup because in their big hits its most usually (except 'so hot') sunmi/lim first verse, sohee second verse, yeeun/sunye chorus then yoobin rap. i'd like to see a change just because im so used to this order that its getting repetitive ie (tell me, nobody, 2dt)

[Guest uchix_francois]

congrats to Sunmi... our pretty deer did great...

i dont want to sound like a party pooper but sunyes style is really questionable at times.

Star Planet, the Malaysian event organizer, has uploaded a WG concert promo MV (30s) onto its Facebook.

NB. I don't think they have a YT channel or Twitter. Just FB & a website, as far as their announcements go.

Yoobin, when WG was hanging out in SE7EN's VIP suite at the Monster Beats launch party.

Judging from the tweeted descriptions, the seating order was, in anti-clockwise, Yoobin, SE7EN, Yeeun, Sunye, Einstein_MCP, Davidleung01, SE7EN's manager. (Where's San E?)

Recent TVBS 哈新闻 Hot News episode about WG & other girlgroups competing in the Kpop scene.

The Taiwan media has been hyping over SNSD's concert (tonight). In this case, I think TVBS was linking Soshi here to WG, After School (Orange Caramel), missA, 4Minute, etc. all of whom have gone there this year.

Brown Eyed Girls is the next to eye the country, from what I read elsewhere.

WG embosom to preempt accidental exposure

2010-10-16 Apple Daily

Korean group WONDERGIRLS (WG) has been focusing on America in recent years. The other night, they were in Seoul to attend a promotional event for new-style headphones. But group members Sohee & LIM were absent. Making a rare appearance in their homeland, Sunye, Yeeun & Yoobin put up with the cold to dress in miniskirts & flaunt their sexy legs. To preempt accidental exposure while bowing, they opted to cover their chests with their hands. Also, former WG member Sunmi who had left the group for studies received good news yesterday. She & 4MINUTE member Heo Gayoon have been successfully accepted by Dongguk University.

WONDERGIRLS Sunmi gets into university without a hitch

1010-10-16 Apple Daily

Former WONDERGIRLS member Sunmi's determination to continue her studies has paid off. She will become a university freshman.

(Lin Yiwen/roundup) Korean girlgroup WONDERGIRLS's former member Sunmi has successfully gained entry into Dongguk University's Theatre Division. She will become group leader Sunye's junior. Korean netizens have been sending her their congratulations. Popular girlgroup 4MINUTE member Heo Gayoon was also accepted by the same college & will be Sunmi's classmate. Sunmi had reluctantly dropped out of school to join WONDERGIRLS in their USA advance. But the pressure proved too great, causing her to cry every day in America. She was unwavering in deciding to exit the group in February.

Finding herself after leaving

Her decision caused dismay among the fans. But after returning to school, she rediscovered her smile & [now] successfully gets into university without a hitch. The other members continue to work hard overseas. They were in Cannes, France the other day as guest performers for a TV & entertainment trade show, winning great acclaim with their splendid performance.

5 idol supergroups take turns to march into Asia, their human wave tactics initiating another Hallyu Wave

2010-10-16 Apple Daily

SUPERJUNIOR is the most popular Kpop idol group in Taiwan.

(Chen Ying/roundup) "Fireworks" (starring Lee Young Ae, Cha In Pyo), "Winter Sonata" (Bae Yong Joon, Choi Ji Woo), "Autumn In My Heart" (Song Seung Heon, Song Hye Kyo) & other Korean TV dramas constituted the first Hallyu Wave in Asia. The TV drama craze have simmered down in recent years, to be replaced by youthful idol groups. Among them, SUPERJUNIOR (SJ), SNSD, WONDERGIRLS, 2PM & BIGBANG are considered the 5 supergroups in Hallyu.

SJ members become their hoobaes' guests

Kpop idols adopt human wave tactics. Take SJ for an example. Their 13 members ranged from thickset to lithe, from pretty boys to jokesters, to suit the fans' individual tastes. During their February concert in Taiwan, more than 1,400 welcomed them at the airport. They are more popular than their hoobaes SNSD. SJ group leader Leeteuk & Donghae arrived in Taiwan this morning as guest performers for SNSD's concert at the Taipei Arena tonight.

WONDERGIRLS's single 'Nobody' was popular in all of Taiwan last year. Practically every year-end party featured copycat items. 2PM banked on a muscular image to ignite their popularity. They visited Taiwan for the 1st time with WONDERGIRLS in August. BIGBANG is not only worshiped by Korean girls. They won Best New Artiste at the Japan Gold Disc Awards earlier this year, & also a MTV Japan Best Pop Video Award in May.

embosom? english has some unexpected hidden words... guess many languages don't have a corresponding to that

Congratulations to deer Sunmi, entering one of the top universities. Study well and always pursue your dreams.

The club Eden pictures set is amazing. I ranted about the girls growing professionally in the States and the ladies trio pics look like the physical manifestation of that. I find Yeeun the most impressive, but all look so cool.

Being in their early 20s the girls can easily alternate mature and young look, I would not be too alarmed for their Jonas / Justice partnerships with a younger target.

They used a different album cover to show a younger look for 2DT's Justice edition. And the recent Pucca photoshoot is cute the max (compare Sohee's Dazed pics with that -- )

This flexibility isn't new to me. Back in 2009 I found a strong contrast between their Jonas tour & the following 2009 events (especially the China concert with Sunmi's Umbrella solo). Their look seemed to me a lot more mature all of a sudden. Was it the Billboard success effect?

Now for a shameless plug.
