In an American magazine, Wonder Girls member Yoobin's name came up in the list of "The 25 Sexiest Musicians Under 25."

Last month, Complex Music released a chart of "The 25 Sexiest Musicians Under 25" and Korea's very own Yoobin placed 20th in the chart. Complex Music stated Yoobin was the replacement of Hyuna, the previous member of Wonder Girls, who came in as a rapper and participated in writing lyrics for their songs.

In this chart, other famous singers such as Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and many more were included. In number one place was famous R&B singer Rihanna. Wonder Girls' Yoobin was the only Korean singer to place on the chart.

Wonder Girls' Yoobin has been getting compliments on being sexy even after entering the American music market in 2009.

Yubin's always been sexy. She definitely deserves a spot on this list.

i wonder if Korea's opinion of underdogs will change once they start to get praised in America (Yoobin, Sooyoung) I know she is not that big underdog but I've seen what Korea thinks of a dar skin

w/e for me she has always been one of the most beautiful idols outhere so is so well deserved <3

I remember being really taken back by Yenny when I saw them in concert. Maybe because I always thought she was the ugliest member so her being so beautiful stuck out to me the most, but Yenny was gorgeous to me

Serious question because I don't follow the wonder girls, how relevant are the wonder girls even getting for her to even be recognized on this list?

Aside from the nickelodeon movie and pictures of them appearing at random premiers & award shows, I've never seen any news regarding WG on my in America...

Date: 2012-05-04 01:54 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] akaich0u.livejournal.com
Not too relevant in terms of mainstream recognition, I'm afraid. They had more momentum around 2.5 years ago since they opened for the JoBros at the latter's height of popularity and also performed on So You Think You Can Dance and Wendy Williams.

Nowadays they're just doing stuff with Nick and being in random magazines (Interview, Teen Vogue, People now and then if it's Asian related). Amongst regular people though they're almost always one of the few names people know to associate with Asian/Korean singers, so that might count for something.

i remember back when they milked the crap out of "Nobody" and I figured they had plateaued and fizzeled until their recent stuff with nick, so I guess I was about right.

That being said... how did she get on this list? Not saying she ISN'T hot, I think she's really attractive, but seeing as they aren't exactly a house hold name on this side of the world, I'm a bit confused.

Hmm I wouldn't say it's a complete loss until at least their album is released. So far the gains they've earned from working with Jonas group has fizzled yeah, but depending on the album's performance it could turn around. Small chance, but here's hoping.

Like I said, WG aren't a household name but even if one isn't well versed in Asian musicians, it's likely that WG is a name that one'll know anyway, upon minimal research. Either the writer of this article is already a fan or she's looking to add diversity to the list, went through a few (or maybe just the one?) of the most famous--in Asia--bands and chose whom she thought was hottest.

You can also consider the fact that WG have been going to so many events. The ladies are meeting a lot of different people and they know how to charm. They may not be household names (yet), but they are setting up a network at those events that may be what helps them in the end.

That's true. JYP did say that WG's American title track is going to feature a "huge, huge star". Really excited to see who it is.

Was really excited for her but ... Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez are in a chart about SEXY musicians? I'm confused now.
