Wondergirls get some American press

[thrift.livejournal.com]

So far, the American debut of the Wondergirls has just been a lot of word of mouth and internet hype, but that has changed, since the Wondergirls were actually featured in a piece in the Seattle Times. Granted I’m not sure if the article made it in the print version (apparently it did), but nonetheless, it’s solid exposure from a media outlet that is not dedicated to celebrities, entertainment, and pop culture.

The article is basically human interest fluff as it just talks about the Wondergirls as a teenage pop sensation who are just looking forward to being in America. Nothing hard-hitting, scandalous, or particularly newsworthy here. All the girls, except So-hee, offer a quote in their very colloquial ESL English, so it’s another chance for fans to catch a glimpse of their English skills.

The article can be read here.

Omona, do think this will help our gals?

[supremacists.livejournal.com]

that is so fetch.

[buffalosorwings.livejournal.com]

just like Sohee's hair, it's full of secrets

[supremacists.livejournal.com]

One time, she punched me in the face. IT WAS AWESOME!

[buffalosorwings.livejournal.com]

She asked me how to spell orange

[supremacists.livejournal.com]

Why should Sohee just get to stomp around like a giant while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? Ye Eun is just as cute as Sohee, right? Ye Eun is just as smart as Sohee, people totally like Ye Eun just as much as they like Sohee, and when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody because that's not what Korea is about! We should totally just STAB SOHEE!

[buffalosorwings.livejournal.com]

She's so pathetic. Let me tell you something about Sohee Ahn. We were best friends in middle school. I know, right? It's so embarrassing. I don't even... Whatever. So then in eighth grade, I started going out with my first boyfriend Kyle who was totally gorgeous but then he moved to Indiana, and Sohee was like, weirdly jealous of him. Like, if I would blow her off to hang out with Kyle, she'd be like, "Why didn't you call me back?" And I'd be like, "Why are you so obsessed with me?" So then, for my birthday party, which was an all-girls pool party, I was like, "Sohee, I can't invite you, because I think you're lesbian." I mean I couldn't have a lesbian at my party. There were gonna be girls there in their bathing suits. I mean, right? She was a LESBIAN. So then her mom called my mom and started yelling at her, it was so retarded. And then she dropped out of school because no one would talk to her, and she came back in the fall for high school, all of her hair was cut off and she was totally weird, and now I guess she's on crack.

[supremacists.livejournal.com]

Say crack again.

[buffalosorwings.livejournal.com]

Hell no, I did NOT leave the south side for this

[supremacists.livejournal.com]

I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school. I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy.

[buffalosorwings.livejournal.com]
