CHI-CHI to debut in Japan as a 5 member group!

[jeit91.livejournal.com]

On December 13th, Japanese record label Tokuma Japan announced that they will be debuting CHI-CHI in April 2012.

Their debut single is scheduled to hit shelves on April 25th, but prior to that, the girls will perform at Shibuya’s Tower Records store on January 26th. They’ll also be participating in other special events, such as a handshake session that allows them to personally greet their fans.

Additionally, Tokuma Japan said that they’ll be hosting a ‘Shibuya CHI-CHI Festival‘ every month up to their debut.

CHI-CHI debuted in Korea as a seven member girl group back in March, but two members recently announced their departure. The group is now comprised of five members: Su-i, Aji, Semi, Boreum, and Shine.

omg this compared to their debut photo

Longer is one of the best girl group songs this year, it's a shame they didn't get attention for it.

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

I like the song but the performance is kinda ruining it imo

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

I actually only saw one performance, was enough for me.

I was wondering what happened to them. I liked the two songs I heard by them. Well, I'll keep my eye on them.

as long as my favorite members are still around, i'm good.

This whole nugus debuting in Japan business needs to stop. Make a name for yourself in Korea first.

even if I love them tbh.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

I know they want to make a quick buck but the hallyu seems to be falling flat right now. But hey if Taken, B1a4 think they can go to Japan then why not these girls too.

[thewarpedmelody.livejournal.com]

Even if they flop in Japan, their sales there would still probably be around the same as their sales in Korea.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Yeah but I doubt they'd make any money off them, if any at all.

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

at least they get to ride airplanes (I'm just trying to be optimistic)

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

I guess it's good to go to Japan regardless. It's a nice experience.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

korean small companies are always teaching their nugus for to flop even harder.

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

just so they will try much harder to success in other field I hope

[raviolikenshin.livejournal.com]

they are debuting in japan with a name that means boobs and a member with the name "Die!!!"

[soft-daisy.livejournal.com]

really? lol. chi-chi also means "(my) father" though right?

[chunsakuma.livejournal.com]

As long as my bb Boreum is still there, I'm fine. ~phew~

I wish they would stay in SK though... "Longer" was AMAZING.

[soft-daisy.livejournal.com]

For the kpop fans in Japan that are still following the nugus coming out every month, I'm impressed. Really impressed.

[deaaan.livejournal.com]

was totally wishing they would drop some dead weights a few months back oop should've kept my mouth shut but they should've kicked out fem!ewteuk and kept jiu cause she was flawfree :(

[jeit91.livejournal.com]

jiu was just a visual if anything.
im betting she had some chops to show off tho.. too bad :(

[deaaan.livejournal.com]

really? i thought she sang loads in don't play around and she could play classical instruments too sobs

still can't stand semi though omg girl looks like a praying mantis and that new hair is not helping

[jeit91.livejournal.com]

i think she had a couple verses. but nothing in longer.
ashamed, i heard she studied music and instruments all her life or something, too bad she couldnt showcase more :(
