Ailee (에일리)

[Guest B0B0*]

This girl is AMAZING! I haven't listened to much kpop, and now I came across her video. Blew me away! She's definitely going to go far. Btw, how old is she?

[dreamerism]

^ That's a very good question. My guess is that she's graduated highschool already, but that's just a guess with practically no backing > >;;

woah finally i found ailee fanbase thread*quoted image*

she is awesome,i was looking for her debut stage since her appearance on singer & trainee*quoted image*

but,what agency does she enter actually??

last performance before her debut stage she is being wheesung's trainee,is she on wheesung's agency??or JYP??since we know that she was also take a part in JYP's project "Dream High Season 2"

Beginning from her "Singer and Trainee" appearance until... whenever she changes companies or her contract with them ends, she is officially under Wheesung's agency, YMC Ent.  Even though Dream High Season 2 is indeed a JYP project, it's still—in the end—a drama. This will not affect anything regarding her training and debuting under YMC Ent. because it's just a drama

^ Thanks for the translations!! And I totally agree with the netizens; in my opinion, her performance totally demonstrated her "big" potential to be a huge idol in Korea. With Ailee's strong debut stages along with B.A.P. and SPICA, this year is turning out to be a very successful year for rookies and they are bringing this air of maturity and the charm they mentioned in the second article that make people wonder whether they really are just "rookies".

[ohchells]

I am in love with her song. I have been replaying it over and over for the past day. I'm getting my sister to love her song. Her voice is just so lovely. She's definitely stepped up the game for being a rookie singer. <3 her.

Hello My name is Ali I want a website to download songs and songs of Korean TV:rolleyes:

[Guest Rosa_xkhaylee]

I'm soo happy that Ailee debuted in Korea ;o

I used to watch/listen her in youtube

Heaven <3 and her concept is also prettyy and omg her clothes! are sooo pretty!

[Guest seodah]

I stopped listening to kpop because i was tired of terrible groups being pushed out every day.

 Ailee is what the kpop scene needs to be good again. First new artist in a long time I've been impressed with

[Seultoria]

I agree with seodah for the most part. Ailee is a step in the right direction for Kpop to regain its former greatness. I know making groups is easier to make popular and to make sure the companies get a return on their investment, but they forgot what made Kpop good in the first place. Good songs + talent > corporate-created image to get tweens and teens to buy their songs.

[Guest littlemermaid_]

I'm so glad she has finally debuted, her voice is amazing! Been listening to "heaven" nonstop! I have a good feeling that she will be big in Korea!

[Guest Rosa_xkhaylee]

Ailee - EXID, Can They Jump Higher Than Their Teachers?

In the music industry, it’s no longer strange for the composer or singer to be involved in producing singer. MBLAQ, Teen Top, as well as Stellar, Brave Girls, Electroboyz, Block B, and My Name who are active these days are produced by Rain, Shinhwa’s Andy and Eric, Brave Brothers, Cho PD, and Hwanhee.

When they first debuted, they might receive the attention because of their producers. However, whether they can survive or not in the music industry is entirely based on their talents and skills.

Taking this risk, in February 2012, a disciple of Wheesung and girl group created by the composer Shinsadong Tiger, EXID will enter the music industry.

Ailee made her debut on February 9th with her title track “Heaven”. She performed on TV Cable and music programs. Currently, ‘Heaven’ tops the various music charts.

‘Heaven’ was produced by Wheesung who also wrote the lyrics. This song has dreamy melody combined with magnificent drum sound which also showing off Ailee’s explosive vocals to make the listeners enjoy the song.

Ailee appeared on last year’s MBC Chuseok Special Programs “Singer and Trainee”, received praises from the judges who recognized her skills. She is also currently filming KBS2 Drama “Dream High 2” playing the character with the same name, Ailee.

[Guest Rosa_xkhaylee]

Aww she wont perform on mnetcountdown >.< well i cant wait to see her perform on music bankk!

[Pooh4ever]

I know this might sound stupid because on her youtube channel her description says she's Korean-American, but is she mixed? She just doesn't look like she's full Korean to me. Maybe it's just me.

However, I love her new song. It's been on replay. Can't wait to see her on this week music shows
