Kim Boa's unmasking

from her prerecorded elimination interview (translation courtesy of @Spica_Tweets):

"It's been more than three years since I debuted. I've been singing guides and chorus vocals since I was 21, starting from Lee Hyori's Toc Toc Toc, and then T-ARA, KARA, 4minute, SNSD, Insooni... To be honest, I felt tired because my voice could only appear in other singers' albums. What is my dream? I just hope that people will like the singing from a person named Kim Boa. I'll sing till the day I die. As long as I have strength left in me, I want to keep on singing. Singing is the only thing I know. I hope I can be the singer Kim Boa who will not be forgotten."


ahh I'm so proud of all three of her performances!! 'Spica' and 'Kim Boa' have been trending in Korea this evening... this would be a great time to release Boa's long-overdue solo @B2M!!!!!!

She's so glorious

I really didn't like 'music is my life'. the arrangement sounded weird to me. So I'm sad about that :(
and goddamn when will someone dethrone the guy?

[lechuza-yoya.livejournal.com]

who is CBR cleopatra? There are rumors?

[rightclick5ave.livejournal.com]

yup, pretty much known that it's Kim Yeon Woo!

[lechuza-yoya.livejournal.com]

oh thanks!

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

It's absolutely Kim Yeon-woo.

[lechuza-yoya.livejournal.com]

GOTDANG ILH SO MUCH & SHE DID SO WELL

BRB SOBBING 💚💚💚💚💚

I thought Jung-in and Lyn were better tbh. I didn't like Music is my life.
Kim Yeon-woo is amazing. Everytime I think it'd be nice if the challenger won and when they sing I think "Maybe this time!" but then it's his turn and just... I completely forget about the challenger even though they already sang twice in the same episode.

This Boowhal song has been covered so many times and very rarely done well but he was amazing, especially the end (I wish they'd post full performances).

He has a tour coming up so they're going to need to find a believable way for him to leave the show. Like a limit to how many times the King can win. Apparently for his next performance he's going to do a pop song or trot to make things easier but honestly I really think he could pull it off and since we know it's him and it's so different it would make people want to vote for him even more.

[tempestdance.livejournal.com]

nah the show films once every other week and i think he's willing to stay as long as he can XD
i'm really glad he's winning so long, he rarely does covers of other people's songs :D

and it looks like he's doing korean classical music so that's gonna be reaaaaally interesting :D

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Really? That's awesome, I'm glad! I love him and it's great hearing him covering different genres. I loved when he tried to dance a little when he covered 이 밤이 지나면 SO cheeky lol

I think I'm going to make a post of his performances so far.

[tempestdance.livejournal.com]

YES! please do!

i get so upset every week when the show releases mp3 ver of the songs on the episode and they never put on songs i want so i have to rip it myself, with the audience noise and everything ughhh

[aleksu7.livejournal.com]

She did well, and it's so obvious she loves what she does. At the end those are the ones that have something special, public can feel those things.

I like better Bbo voice but Boa is awesome.

[lobotronic.livejournal.com]

yasss, I guessed it was Jung In!!!! Boa was seriously SO GOOD. My boyfriend turned to me like "who is this girl?!?!" so I introduced him to SPICA. :D

DOING THE LORD'S WORK \o/

[kimbafierce.livejournal.com]

I'm glad she at least won the first two rounds as I think she was the better singer. Her first competitor was great, but I think she was projecting her voice throughout the song and did not let it flow at all. The way she sang reminded me of Christina and I cannot say I'm a big fan of that way of singing. The second competitor was just... gasps, imho. I thought I heard her breathing more than singing. And while I absolutely love Boa's choice in MIML I think it worked against her, Korea love its ballads. Though, I don't think she would have won anyway; that guy's voice was sooooo good!

[rightclick5ave.livejournal.com]

Korean audiences definitely love ballads! but I'm glad she chose MIML, because the lyrics are so personal and relatable to her. watching her sing those words with so much passion and energy is just...wow. so thankful she had this opportunity ;-;

[kimbafierce.livejournal.com]

I'm glad she chose it too, because like I said I don't think she would have won anyway. At least she sang something completely different and rocked it! Hopefully, hopefully, this will be the start of Spica's world domination.
