UK girl group Little Mix who found fame as winners of the 2011 UK X Factor, today released a Korean language version of their hit song Wings.

Translated to and titled as 날개 in Korea, the verses are sung in Korean while the chorus remains in English.

You can listen to the first minute of the song here.



The single has been released as a result of the global boom of Korean pop culture, its local music distributor said.

“Little Mix members, who have much interest in Korean culture, were greatly impressed by a cover video of their song from SBS TV’s ‘K-pop Star,’ ” Sony Music Entertainment Korea Inc. said, referring to a local television audition program.

“So we suggested them to sing the song in Korean and release it worldwide, and that’s how the Korean version of the ‘Wings’ was born,” the company said.

The digital single can be purchased here on the online Korean music store Melon (basically like a Korean iTunes).

Here’s the video of the girls that covered the song on K-pop Star

Funny, I was just listening to their (flawless) DNA unplugged performance.
Hows their pronounciation, native speakers?

I love all their unplugged perfs.
I enjoyed their album.
But lol why.

I wish kpop would come out with songs that are upbeat and fun but can still showcase the group's singing ability to the fullest. Then again, they also would need a group like little mix where all members can belt out.

I don't really liked the song but this is better than everything girl groups released this year, that's actually sad.

Damn. The girls who covered Wings were seriously good. Why can't music shows have these kind of singers and songs and 101% live?

I have always preferred this song unplugged and live.

little mix always sound better unplugged and acapella
i feel like some of their songs are kind of overproduced tbh

I always thought Little Mix had a Kpop vibe. The video for How Ya Doin was bright and colorful in that Kpop way - or Kpop videos are bright and colorful in that UK pop way, hard to say in which direction the inspiration flows, haha.

Wings is my fave LM song so I am pleased.
Now can I plz have Union J, or just George idc, do at least a cover. Ever since George sang a bit of Lonely I have lost my marbles tbh.
