^Thanks Chaser! I'm rockin' the '06 Hyolee Woot Woot!

Anyway, I might be getting a job soon so that should help me out. Everything is still up in the air though. There is still I chance that I might not go. If that's the case, I'm crossing my fingers that she stops by in Guam for a little while. She's been here before so I'm hoping she wont mind comming back. Plus, now I got friends in the hotel industry that will keep my imformed if any big korean celebs stop by.

Kay, another question for you soompiers...which american artist(s) would you like to see Hyolee collaborate with?

For me, I think Hyolee over a Kanye West beat would be nice! Have Kanye drop a witty verse after the chorus or something. A Hyori and Eve combo would be interesting too. Matter fact, I think in one 10 min. performance I could've sworn I herad eve in the background while one of her backupdancers mouthed the lyrics. Other than that, I would literally have a heart attack if I saw a Beyonce/Hyori video!

//oH.... i WOULD LIKE HYORI TO COLLABORATE WITH EMINEM. AND BEYONCE/HYORI TANDEM WILL BE VERY EXCITING.

i saw this Christmas album on yesasia.... its a Various Artist Christmas album called Last Christmas

Last Christmas cover


and its track 3 is a song by hyori & lee soo young...
3. 울면안돼(이효리/ 이수영)

anyone knows what's the title of the song?? or even better... anyone have that song??? heheh... didnt know that both of them sang together other than the live 'the boy is mine' song....

[Cee Peeh]

^I don't really know if that Eminem thing will go well. He hardly collabs with female american artists as is. I think the only female he's ever worked with was Dido...


hyori + natasha bedingfield = interesting combination!

f*ck it...

HYORI + ME! = I would've killed that 10 minutes beat, Jazz Bar, Fine Killing Liberty, Anymotion, or Hey Girl. I can't hate on Anyclub though. Teddy did his thing...

[~lin~]

Wow Cee Pee you have been bussy I guess everyone is soooo excited for HYORI returns and her promotion of ther new album

anyways, Brian oppa I will be looking forward for your updates and calender on Hyori performance and outcome

이효리 '컴백 전, 몸값 25억'
2006-01-21

(고뉴스=백민재 기자) 가수 이효리가 컴백 전부터 개런티 대박을 터트리며 'CF퀸'임을 다시 한번 입증했다.

이효리는 최근 전지현의 바통을 이어받아 의류브랜드 지오다노와 전속 모델 계약을 체결했다. 지오다노는 영화 '왕의 남자'와 SBS 드라마 '마이걸'로 폭발적인 인기를 누리고 있는 이준기와 소녀 모델 우리를 새 모델로 발탁한 바 있다.

이효리의 소속사측은 "정확히 밝힐 수는 없지만 업계 최고대우를 받은 것은 확실하다"라고 밝혔다.

특히 이효리는 지난해 삼성 애니콜과 8억원에 재계약을 한 데 이어, 비오템, 광동제약 비타500 등과도 잇따라 모델 계약을 체결했다. 이에 따라 불과 수개월 사이에 이뤄진 4개 CF의 개런티만 따져도 최소 25억원 이상이 될 것이라는게 업계의 추측이다.

또 이효리는 오는 2월 3일부터 6일까지 말레이시아로 출국, 이준기, 우리, 장동건과 함께 CF를 촬영할 예정.

한편, 조만간 2집 앨범을 출시할 계획인 이효리는 앨범 발표를 앞두고 남태평양 사이판에서 쇼케이스를 열 예정이다. 벅스뮤직이 주최하는 이 행사에 이효리는 팬 250여명과 함께 전세기를 타고 사이판으로 향한다.

Its for giordano. im so surprised cause jeon ji hyun and jung woo sung where the main models for a while but 2005 theyadded jang dong gun and now 2006 they added the 14 yr old Oori/lee jun ki and hyori

i wonder why hyori switched to giordano when ggpx was her main modeling thing....

[angelicXD]

Bin just lost her balence for a second she didn't fall or anything. and Bin did not ruin it. im not bin's #1 but she did not ruin it.......... I still think minwoo/bin/woohyuk's was better. although h/7/bi's was good too.

well, take my word back. She didn't ruin it but I still think Se7en and Bi and Hyori's version is better. Oh and I respect your opinion. Minwoo and Woo Hyuk is good and I love them two. And I'm not a big fan of Bi but I like his performance for that song in there.

Pop queens set to face off



The Korean pop scene in 2006 is expected to be hot and lively as the two top divas are making a comeback.
Of the same age but totally different in music genre and visual style, ballad queen Lee Su-young and Lee Hyo-lee will meet in the K-pop ring again after more than a year's break. Known as close friends but also competing top stars, the two Lees, both 27, received Korean Music Awards from three major TV broadcasters in 2003: Lee su-young from MBC and Lee Hyo-lee from KBS and SBS.

Lee Su-young, whose previous album sales used to rank top of the pop charts even during the economic recession, released her latest and seventh album "Grace" last Saturday.


Responding to a huge demand for pre-orders, Lee's management agency Likud Entertainment produced 200,000 copies before the release of the album. Record album reviewers say that the enthusiastic orders for Lee's album lie in the strength of Lee's vocal power and the singer's strong commitment to Korean ballads.

However, some online album reviewers say that they are already fed up with the same old style of the ballad singer.

However, it is undeniable that her sad, emotion-invoking pop ballads actually appeal to Koreans from teenagers to those in their 40s. Her comeback album made a great success as its sales ranked first only hours after it went on sale online.

On the other side, Lee Hyo-lee, armed with unmatchable sexiness and her unique fashion style, is coming back to the K-pop scene with her second album early in February.

Although other female singers tried hard to imitate Hyo-lee's sexy image during her break, none of them seemed sexier than the Korean equivalent of Jennifer Lopez.

A former member of the female pop quartet FIN.K.L, Hyo-lee's first solo "Stylish" sold more than 150,000 copies in 2003. The record, of course, is dwarfed by Lee Su-young's massive album sales but considered a good result for a dance singer. The song "10 Minutes" swept the Korean pop music, bringing her a Korean Music Award in 2003.

It is said that her popularity so far has greatly been dependent upon her visual image, not on her vocal capability. Music critics question whether she can overcome the limitations of her singing ability to gain a better reputation.

Despite some negative comments from music critics, her brand value as a star seems to skyrocket as she continues to appear in the commercials of Samsung mobile phone brand "Anycall."

Recently, she also concluded an exclusive model contract with a fashion brand, Giordano, taking over from actress and model Jeon Ji-hyun.

For the promotion of her second album, Lee will showcase her album in Saipan in the South Pacific, along with her fans. The special event, organized by the music portal web site Bugs and Asiana Airlines, is scheduled to be held from Feb. 17 to 21.

^ That is so true.

Hyori is a beautiful woman no doubt about that. but her singing just isn't up to par. You guys are big fans in here so i bet you will disagree with me. but seriously her popularity/hyori syndrome was based on the bringing the sexy-sexy concept to korea with hott-catchy hiphop ish songs. She pulled it off of course cause she has a warm personality to match her pretty face. So she doesn't have many antis. but if you based it on her voice alone she wouldn't have been so fortunate.
Im crossing my fingers hoping that her 2nd album will show some improvements vocally... but her producers make songs that don't really show her voice range anyways.... hopefully the songs are as catchy as her 1st album songs.

As for the lee so young coming back shes a good singer but like the article said her songs generally sound alike. They are close friends .. and i dont think they have competition against each other cause most of korea likes the both them in different ways obviously..

eh i hope i didn't make anyone mad. .. im a fan but sometimes i think its unfair... but thats the entertainment world for ya...

[rapunzel283]

^ Lol it's all good, everyones entitled to their own opinion

Well, I agree, Hyori doesn't have the strongest of voices - however, with the types of songs she sings, I think her voice sounds great. Its not as if she goes and sings full on ballads - thats her best buddy LSY's area of expertise. Hyori has always been about dance/hip-hop/pop music - her voice doesn't need to be as strong - as long as she got the style and the moves, she's fine lol~

Plus I quite like Hyori's voice - its husky and low - unique.

Although other female singers tried hard to imitate Hyo-lee's sexy image during her break, none of them seemed sexier than the Korean equivalent of Jennifer Lopez.

^ DAMN STRAIGHT!
[Although I'm not so sure about the J-Lo reference. Lol...]

Cant waiiiiiiiiiit for her comeback.

And thankyou mzz_booo for the article! <3

[rapunzel283]

Ok I just watched Minwoo/Bin/Woo Hyuk's performance of Nan Arayo. It was good, but it lacked charisma. What I loved about Se7en, Bi and Hyori's version is THEY sang it, and you could see SINGERS, not back up dancers, behind them, getting into the song as well. I liked it a looooot more than M/B/W's version.

But that's just my opinion lmao~

Completely unbiased too haha!

[adikkeluangman]

Yeah, bout Hyori coming to Malaysia there some news floating around. Heard that she will come with Jang Dong Gun and Lee Jun Ki for shooting Giordano CF in Kuala Lumpur. BTW, maybe they will be in KL around 3rd Feb. I don't want to miss JDG like last time missed Daniel Henney and Hyun Bin in KL. Any more info bout this?
