Also her version of Let It Go has been released.

She sounds great, did they just do a cover version of Demi's though? Or is this a whole new arrangement?

Stunning pictures!

I'm tired of Starship pushing the Beyonce image on her, she recently said that she feels sorry towards Beyonce for constantly being compared to her.It's clear she wants to be her own person but oh well.Nevertheless, I am excited to see the cover. Hoping she got some rest and sounds less tired than yesterday
I can already see them rehashing the performance she did for their first concert last year (which was a mock up of one of Beyonce's tbh). Still the possible midbelts are going to be good.
Her performance at the Gayos have been nice, and I loved One Way Love rock remix (although it was way too short of a performace in my opinion). I finally warmed up to Telephone (Still don't think they should have won, but whatever)

Got ya. That sounds like a good plan for now anyways. I hope it works well for her! So she's pretty much her own agent?
Unless she hired herself a manager, yep. I think she will find a company soon though. I think *hope* she will get signed somewhere soon and start taking her acting career seriously like she wanted.
-
So is Sohee still with JYPE or just hanging out doing projects? I'm confused.
Right now she is a free agent, meaning as far as we know, she is not signed under a company (this includes JYPE).
She just did this because she wanted to (or a check would come her way). She can still accept jobs with/from JYPE they just won't manage her.
-
agreed! A very lackluster performance, I think K.Will & Huh Gak should have won too. I wish they sang another song, Hyolyn wasn't even trying lol still she did well especially with the English pronunciation
First off thank you for the compliment on my sig! I am here for yours as well!
Second these performances were eh. Sistar's performance was one of the better ones of the night, they sounded good enough, and their *remix* was nice, sans those cheap outfits.
Is KBS the one that no one really cares about? Because it looked...small.

Hyolyn and Ailee were not performing against each other, but with each other.
It was a duel type thing. They had different categories.
Ailee and Hyolyn vs K. Will and some other guy. Ailee and Hyolyn performed Telephone by Lady Gaga and Beyonce...but it wasn't great. They sounded good (were the best so far), but they were lacking in my opinion. Ailee isn't a dancer, and while Hyolyn is a great performer it didn't work well in my opinion. K. Will's duo was better, but Ailee and Hyolyn won. Eh...-

That performance of Silver Bells was cute. Are they doing like a special or something, because I know the guy playing the bass/cello (I can;t tell) sung with Luna from f(x),,,
Anyway is Hyolyn done with her promotions, because...next week is the Gayos (less than a week), unless she about to give us some messy performances that are 85% lipped, she really needs to be resting up.
Also yay to a subbing team. Is that just for Hyolyn or all of Sistar?

Welcome to the thread!! So glad you decided to join!

I'm so happy that her voice doesn't sound tired and tI think she's nailed all her 3 latest performances of OWL(the M.countdown one, Show Champion and Open Concert one). I 'm a bit distracted by that too, it would be better if she stuck to just either singing it fully or removing the mic from her mouth. Nevertheless, I LOVED that Whitney cover!!! She surprised me and totally exceeded my expectations with it. I wished she used head voice tho, but the performance was beautiful and there's such a huge difference between the level of skill from when she first covered this song in her rookie days and now. I cannot wait for IS2 either! Hopefully she delivers a great performance vocally.
Some of the outfits have bothered me too! Especially when they're basically identical to the back-up dancers. I've liked her latest outfits and hope she NEVER goes back to wearing that ugly outfit from her showcase.
Speaking of the dates, the IWALY performance was performed a day after her IS2 if I'm not mistaken.
Yup I was right, just found her schedule:
131216 Hyolyn - Immortal Songs 2 [Recording]
131217 Hyolyn - Open Concert [Recording]
131218 Hyolyn - Show Champion [broadcasting]
131218 Hyolyn - MNET Beatle Codes Season3 [Recording]
131219 Hyolyn - MNET M! Countdown [broadcasting]
LOL so tired of AIWFC too It's like this is the song they perform EVERY year, would've liked to see a change for the better. There are lots of great Xmas classics to choose from. I liked Hyo's efforts, but not so much the failed harmonies , they all just didn't go that well together. I think it would've been better if it was just a duo performing.
Also, looking forward to her rendition of "Let it Go".
She also had some nice F5's from MTV All About K pop show and something else...I forget.
I'm mad we won't get the IS2 episode till January. Do not like waiting that long, when it's been reported to be happening.
I thinks she tried for dynamics in IWALY...like a crescendo. Her head voice, or at least a much more flexible falsetto should be her focus now. She can give good high notes now, but she can't rely on them all the time if she wants to be a great vocalist/performer.
I only like two of the outfits she has worn (the glittery sweater, and the new black shirt-shorts combo), but only one of them actually is different from the rest.
Do you know when Let It Go comes out? Or is that another one we gonna have to wait for?

This week has been great for Hyolyn (I like this spelling better) vocally.
Like that concert was the 17th? Didn't she do two other shows the 17 (or were the prerecorded and shown on the 17/18?). Regardless she sounded great on them.
I need everyone to let All I Want... go. Like that is the default Christmas song. It's a great song, but there are many classics that can be covered (I have only seen one Oh Holy Night and one Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas). Anyway the cover itself felt clunky, like they didn't have much time to rehearse (and they probably didn't), but Hyolyn sounded great and that is all that matters in my book. It was cute for what it was, and they gave some nice lil harmonies, so it wasn't terrible. It was nice.
Her OWL performances have been consistently good, sans a few strained high notes. The one major thing (besides the outfits) I think needs to change is that she "rehearses" when and where she sings during the chorus. Like you can basically tell when she doesn't sing, and sometimes she will have the mic up to her mouth, and other times she won't (during the One Way One Way part). It may not distract anyone else, but it is annoying to me. Like she will sing and then fade out but still lip. She does it a lot on the last high note in the chorus (After the sustained ones). Like it just annoys me a bit, nothing major. EIther keep the mic down, or learn how to ad lib a little better.
Also her IWALY cover was beautiful. There were still some things she could have done better, but overall, that was one of her best performances this year, and her entire career imo.
If this is the shape that her voice is in right now, then I cannot wait for her performance on IS2.

Hi. I'm not here for introductions, but I like Hyolyn/Hyorin/Whatever we are calling her today.
I'm not new to OH, or really this thread, but I decided I need to find residence in one of the threads, and I chose Hyolyn's.
So once again: hi.

Right, I agree. Honestly since Sunye went on hiatus JYp said the WG would work on solo activities but he really didnt do anything for them for solo activities. Sohee didnt have much work, Yubin was featured in a song, yeeuns been writin, and Lim was doing that English radio station. But those are hardly sufficiant for such a talented group of girls like them. Sohee wants to seek new opportunity and JYPE is just kind of keeping her in their arsenal.
But they have had solo activities, just not solely focused around music.
Yeeun had features, a musical, and a drama. SHe also performed on K Pop start this year, and did that show with that one group, plus she did a rock concert as a guest.
Yubin had a drama, and the Ivy collaboration, plus she was on the 2PM repackage album. She went on vacation after that, and only appeared for Sunmi's promotional efforts.
Lim is doing some sort of show (not the radio show), it's like a news program for K pop, plus she seems the most active out of everyone, judging from her instagram.
Sohee is really the only one that hasn't been busy out of the group (sans Sunye, but she was pregnant for most of the year).

You mean it's definite??? Oh no. </3
I see, thanks.
And welcome to the thread! \o/No problem, and thank you. Do I have to do anything in particular for the thread or...nah?
-
OH MY GOD SUNYE!!! She's not closing the doors yet. This makes me so happy. ;____;
Seeing as there's no mention of Lim, her contract's not expiring yet?
Oh, I didn't know that was possible. Good for her, though. Can't wait to see her act more.
Lim signed later than the other girls did, so her contract doesn't expire until later (I think like 2015)

Since this thread is moving slow... somebody made a video of Beyonce performing Why Don't You Love Me at various venues from her recent tour.
Bey is really a showy type of vocalist of course, but I like this because she is usually at her best on tour. Plus the many Eb5's. Bonus head voice at the end.

Hyorin sounds very hoarse in One Way Love, does that mean she's using bad technique and is damaging her chords?
Not one of the experts
She performed it live recently and she sounded fine. I think she recorded it during the GITM promotions (with little to no break between that and Sistar19's promotions), which matches up to to how she sounds on the record as opposed to now when she sounds a lot better
Edit: That didn't answer your question at all. I think her technique had more or less been the same since the beginning of the year. I think this year GITM promotions were her worst in terms of the quality of her voice, because she was possibly exhausted. So in my opinion, it wasn't a matter of bad technique, more so an issue of a weaker than normal voice.

Pretty good imo. Some nice Eb5s/E5s/F5 there.
Yay my video has been featured!

Man they sound amazing. I'm glad JYPE keeps them busy despite how they seem to be bored on instagram sometimes lol.
I'm not sure but lately I'm starting to feel like Yerin's been outperforming Jimin by a lot. Or something like that. I don't know much about vocals but sometimes it sounds like Jimin's trying too hard? They're both young though so they have plenty of time to keep learning.
That was cute!! She is so prettyyyyy. I'm surprised but grateful Korea hasn't caught that yet.
About your spoiler, Yerin has always been a more confident performer and singer, but Jimin is still a better vocalist on a technical level. Yerin just knows how to work a song better (compare her ad libs and runs to Jimin's)

I also think Seohyun is the worst cuz not only is she tense and strangled, she's also always flat.
"Give me a chance to come through" .. Through was impressive. Srsly Ariana hasn't deteriorated that much but Jessica was wow. Like she could sing like that before? Then the fuck has she been doing.
I know Ariana hasn't completely lost her voice, or even lost it at all. No expert, but I always thought it was more that she changed her approach (she sounded less Mariah-y in her younger days), and while not completely unhealthy, it did affect her. But y'all probably know that already.
Jessica...eh.

I don't know how to post videos on here but:
Basically the video is of Jessica Simpson vs Ariana Grande belting C5's from one performance each...and it was while they were younger.
Anyway...
I just want to know what the hell happened to get them from point A to point B.
Jessica Simpson didn't sound like her voice was trapped behind closed doors in her throat.

Is 1995 pre vocal deterioration? Because she did it a lot in this song
1:03 if you want to get specific.
*Comes out of lurking* I was just about to ask you to give an example, thank you.
Is that what that was? I always found that annoying, because it felt like it was closing off her voice and made it sound like she couldn't hit the note properly.
Mariah's vocal decline did not become a thing until Butterfly (97 or so)

Yup, she denied it in her interview with AKP

Ailee needs to think again before saying she doesn't copy Bey.
Coming out of lurking to ask: has Ailee ever addressed the whole Korean Beyonce thing?
If she out here denying it, she need to stop lying.

No one really knows what their future as a group is. All we know is that their on hiatus until stated otherwise, but people automatically assume it is the end because of what has happened in 2013.
In my personal opinion, the Wonder Girls can still go on as a group if that is what will happen. Yeeun, Yubin, and Sunye have resigned, Lim isn't up for negotiation until 2015 (correct me if I'm wrong anyone), and you can add in Sunmi if you want five members. However the remaining four active members are more than enough to fill the whole that Sohee left. Lim might have to sing more, Yubin may get more singing lines, or Yeeun and Sunye can alternate her parts, but that just means the group will have to adjust. There have been many groups, K pop and international, that have had member changes/loss and have adjusted to them. The biggest issue would be fans, and the public accepting these changes.
So long answer short: We are told no it is not the end, and they are just on a hiatus. However no one really knows what the deal is.
