Han Groo : A new Solo Rookie

Post by Shoujo Q »

There's a new soloist on the block, hailing from Climix Academy. (Yes I want to say Climax <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' /> ) She's being produced by Joo Young Hoon. (Joo has worked with Uhm Jung Hwa, Fin.K.L, Kim Jong Kook, and KARA to name a few.)

Her name is Han Groo (Yes I want to say Han Solo <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' /> )



Her debut album, Groo One was released today and the title track is Witch Girl.



Here's the MV.



Whatcha think, will she make it?

This is a place where a signature goes. Enjoy some Airi instead.

Eh~ I like the song and she looks like a UEE x Junjun love child, which is DEFINITELY a good thing, but she just doesn't have that spark I look for in a solo artist. This reminds me of when members of girl groups do solo work lol her voice is kind of generic for a soloist. . .

I didn't like it at first, and then the chorus sucked me in and now I know I'll be singing it all day and probably all next week...I'm in love with her. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

ALSO: she is really pretty! But I do hate the one weird striped dress she wears with like the pom pom things on her arms...but the black one...:3 NICE.

This is a good summary. The bar's already pretty high with existing girl groups and existing solo artists (BoA, Lee Hyori, Son Dam Bi), so new ones have to be really amazing in order to debut. Or at least put in their work with a girl group for a few years to prove themselves.

I think this too, maybe it's just the song, but while I don't want to compare her to the existing solo artists, she needs to "wow" us in someway if she wants to be successful.

Her eye makeup in the white dress is magnificent. I want ever Kpop from now on to wear it.



Obviously she's super pretty. The song however is absolutely generic I think.
