Sorry mods, I got the name of the show wrong the first time! Eunji slayed, the audience at 1:21 was me, and I am forever pressed at how under utilized Eunji's voice is in A Pink songs. She has improved so much since their debut and her low notes have improved significantly. Idk why she hasn't been on Immortal Song 2 yet *sighs dramatically*.

mbc uploaded the video to their channel on yt, op!
i'll never get over the fact that acube doesn't get her some OSTs to sing, sigh, i need eunji solos in my life

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

LOL i retract my previous comments about MBC made in the heat of the moment. Thank you!!!!!

[lovejae23.livejournal.com]

eunji has one of my favorite voices in kpop omg

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

she has such a beautiful voice :3

[lovejae23.livejournal.com]

she does... and singing is so effortless for her she's just such a natural at it

[hitsujiga.livejournal.com]

damn gurl...

I had no idea she could actually sing till someone linked me a couple of her lives yesterday. Anyone have anything else to recommend of hers? She's waaaay better than she can usually show in A Pink songs (not that I've heard many of those either though), I like her voice.

a pink songs are sang in this cute voice, i remember one voice of korea contestant was on sketchbook and talked about doing guides for apink, and showed the difference... watch here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cmmtlfz9n5o), starts 1:02:00

i love her duets with seo in guk haha, their voices really do sound well together. and the duet she did with the one was impressive because you know, its the one and hes a great singer.
i like this perf a lot too:

I didn't know they subbed Sketchbook for KBS World...ah yeah

[stoppedclock321.livejournal.com]

whoa okay, that was weird - i had that sketchbook episode pulled up already because of younha, actually, it's strange that it came up again (relevantly!) in this convo. it makes a lot of sense as to why i hadn't heard of eunji before, really -- cutesy don't generally offer any opportunity for vocals to shine, which is a shame.

I shipped Eunji and Inguk sm

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

Idk which ones you've seen already so I'll just link you a few of my faves lol

this one is one of my faves bc apink has JUST debuted and her voice was already very strong. She has improved on her low notes a lot

Here she is singing with a cute little girl at the 4:00 minute mark

omg I gave you so many lol I just love her voice and am surprised at how underrated she is as a singer

[stoppedclock321.livejournal.com]

Argh, I now have too many great YT tabs open (but that's a good problem to have lmao, so thank you!)...

Has Eunji done any significant solo singing activities (i.e., promotions or IS2 or something)? I know she hasn't gone on IS2 (which is a shame, she'd be really interesting to see) and I think it might be because her acting career is eclipsing her singing career (much like Seo In Guk, actually). I hadn't ever heard 'Eunji' and 'good singing' mentioned in the same breath before yesterday. It's not even in a bad sense though -- I'd just never heard of her and singing together at all in any context. I don't think anyone but A Pink fans really know that she can sing, which is a shame. I'd really like to see her go on IS2 or anything like that.

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

She did a song with Yoseob and Huh Gak but I wouldn't count that as solo work :( Unfortunately, A Pink's music does limit her vocal range bc the songs require a lot of cutesy. She has a pretty soulful voice but she has always had to make her pitch higher bc of the songs. Acting is what made her really famous so it makes sense that people would recognize her most for that but its a shame that a lot of people don't know about her voice too. I think other people in the industry know she has a really good voice, but non apink fans tend not to know. I really hope Cube lets her do solo work bc she has so much potential.

[stoppedclock321.livejournal.com]

I know her song with Huh Gak, actually! The MV was quirky and great and the song was pretty cute, so I actually have it on my ipod somewhere, haha. It's really sad because I checked out a couple of A Pink songs and she's basically like Luna in that she gets a few notes to show off her talent in, but the rest of it's really watered-down/tame compared to what she can actually do.

[rikayla.livejournal.com]

i don't know anything about apink, but she reminds me of f(x)'s luna in this song

[sayitisso.livejournal.com]

man it blows my mind how many people on omona think apink are short of talented singers, so sad my hurt.

she did an amazing job, but i always find myself wishing she had more experience and opportunities like these to develop her own color and mature as a singer. she's incredible and a natural, but also lacking a little at bringing her own personality into her covers, imo. i don't get why she hasn't gone on is2 yet, and i'm very pressed about it. she could pull a sandeul and go both alone for ballads and bring bomi/namjoo along for more upbeat covers, and i think they'd be really successful. cube doesn't seem to be very tight with is2, though. after a few 4minute and yoseob appearances they never got anyone else on. btob should also be there :(

anyway! so many divas in one photo, this is great.

[in-noctem.livejournal.com]

I'm still waiting on that Sandeul/Eunji duet, if they picked the right song and complemented each other's voices instead of overpowering each other oh man I don't think I'll live.

[weerainbow.livejournal.com]

That would be one truly awesome duet!!!! I really hope we get it!

[iigoru.livejournal.com]

acube needs to show off her voice more like this. and use namjoos voice more in apink songs too. and make bomi sing lower.

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

omg bomi's voice in apink songs makes me cringe...it is so high pitched and baby sounding

[iigoru.livejournal.com]

ikr i love her but i just cant

[in-noctem.livejournal.com]

I'm always so amazed at how mature she sounds for someone so young, she's such a natural and it's exciting to think about what she'll sound like in the next few years.

Idk why that guy's phone flashing her name is making me lol.

[weerainbow.livejournal.com]

That was really fabulous. I've always loved Eunji's voice and wished we got more solo stuff or even more duets from her. Her voice has a beautiful richness to it, I could listen to her for hours, and it's so nice hearing her sing this kind of song!
