As a favorite of judges and viewers alike, contestant Park Ji Min has once again impressed with her powerhouse vocals on this week’s episode of SBS‘s ’K-Pop Star.

Park Ji Min was the contestant who blew the world away with her killer rendition of Adele‘s “Rolling In The Deep, a performance that drew compliments from American celebrities like Ashton Kutcher andEric Benet.

For her next performance, Park Ji Min received advice from J.Y. Park, who coached her through her rendition of R. Kelly‘s hit song, “I Believe I Can Fly“.

After her performance, judges J.Y. Park, Yang Hyun Suk, and BoA gave her a round of applause. BoA and Yang Hyun Suk both stated that they felt underwhelmed at first, but were blown away by the middle of the song.

“I have nothing to say,” BoA murmured. “In the beginning, I thought it was just OK, but as we reached the middle, I saw Park Ji Min.”

Yang Hyun Suk commented, “I initially wondered why she choose this song. So many people sing this song for auditions, so I thought it was too obvious. For that reason, I thought it would be the hardest song for you.” He continued, “Like BoA, I couldn’t focus in the beginning, but as you kept going, you took this typical song and sang it in a style that was all Park Ji Min’s. You performed as expected — you did well.”

Park Ji Young added, “I’m really thankful. Even though I knew what was going to happen, I still got goosebumps”.

He later remarked, “It’s not just her explosive singing ability that astonishes; she also has this incredible sensibility. She utilized and implemented everything that I taught her”.

You can watch Park Ji Min’s rendition of “I Believe I Can Fly” below:

Frankly I hate this song but damn the girl has so much raw talent. And yet I bet she'd never make it in the music industry without this show, which is so sad.

Is it really? With talent like that she won't pass a major label audition? That's sad. :/
Why though? She's not bad looking.

lol JYPE wouldn't even take hyorin or IU.

but the took Khun, Sohee, and and lots of other people who can't sing. looks & personality >>>>> talent in JYP land.

YG might take her...he took daesung. but even so, after he took him, everyone else in the company called him super ugly soooo...

i thought jype was about fitting in with the company culture - i have to admit that the big jype artists all feel like they have similar personalities.
i can see why hyorin and iu werent signed to jype - without the looks factor (cuz they arent necessarily uglier or prettier than the current crop)

I'm impressed, but why do Korean artists always sing such awful English songs?

So... it's already the finals? Or what does that 'final' tag in the top left corner mean?

And how did that white rapper guy do?

it's not the finals yet. it's the "Final casting" into the companies who will train them through out the show...

Oh, she's a kid! She doesn't have to worry about mustache maintaining yet. A lot of girls have a hairy upper lip.

I think my love for Ji Min stems from the faces she manages to elicit from JYP, YG, and BOA. XD
Her vocals are beautiful though and very well controlled. I'm excited to see what company she debuts under.

Also, who was that black lady the camera kept focusing on? I couldn't decide if it was someone important, or if the cameraman was being slightly ignorant by concentrating on a black person's reaction to a Korean girl singing R & B so well. :p

She's the very talented contestant Lee Michelle (Korean mother, black father, born and raised in Korea). She and Park Jimin have worked and impressed together through Su Pearls but they are also seen as strong competitors and thus are somewhat rivals, which is why the cameraman focused a bit on her reactions.

Ook I'm much relieved to hear that. I kind of wish I had the time to properly check out this show other than on omona. ^^; Thanks for the info!

This girl is FLAWLESS my God, one of the best voices I've ever heard
Whichever of the labels that get her will be freaking lucky to have her,
Such a refreshing talent.

The rest of the contestants should just go home tbh

I think this girl is gonna win hands down, I mean no one else on the show comes even close to her. And when she does I hope she goes with YG, and if not, JYP. Those last notes, she killed it.

My fav is still Lee Hayi tbh, she has a super unique voice and has great charisma on stage. To me Jimin sounds a bit mediocre :\

IA. For me, the SuPearls definitely have talent and range, but they just are not my cup of tea. Ji Min loves to do the power-voice, which is fine, but I think sometimes it's unnecessary.
Hayi is so cute, and I think she has lots of potential. I love her unpolished voice, and I bet it will be even better with some training.

My fav is still Cathy Young. She's the quiet type, although not in the same way as Hayi (maybe its because she can't speak Korean),but she can turn her voice on amazingly.

This is one of my favorite songs and the way she sang it made me tear up a little ;u;

She's great... I wish she'd sing a song that I don't despise.
