V.M. 752 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I'm fascinated by her tbh and there is not a huge amount on the net about her. Just wondering for anyone who is a fan or lives in Korea or is an older head here, how bad was the amount of flack aimed at her when she broke through ? Did she have to deal with racism head on ie in Koreans mocking her on tv shows, publicly to her face or anything ? Korea still has a pretty obvious problem with race issues today and she broke through 30 years ago. I am just trying to get my head around it and how she dealt with and won over her haters, other than just that she is a bad ass singer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azia 148 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Her wiki mentioned that she went through discrimination growing up. I wish someone would tell us more about her. I started to like her when I first heard Goose's Dream. She owned that song btw (for a while I thought it was her original song) She recently released 나무 (released May 31, 2013) you can click link to stream songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing is that she didn't have to deal with internet warriors at that time I am also pretty curious , but yeah she definitely had the advantage that the internet warriors didn't exists then.

YesIKnowRelax 3,614 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Insooni wasn't a soloist until well into the 80s She was part of the Hee sisters and was known for her body and dancing in the group she got really big in Korea's disco era She did lighten her skin and it doesn't seem like she was blocked from performing on music shows I've seen Hee Sister performances from 1979 on MBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
