“I was impressed by Lim Jeong Hee sunbae’s vocals and expression when she sang “I Couldn’t Shed Tears” on TV. I thought that an occupation as a singer could move people’s minds, so I started to dream of being a singer.”

Hyeri, who used to like to sing and dance, started to practice singing and dancing afterwards alone by herself, and early last year, she had passed an audition held by the agency. She got a chance to debut when the former members of Girl’s Day left the team.

Hyeri (real name Lee Hyeri), who has ‘ultimate visual’ and various charms, has joined as a new member of Girl’s Day, a 5-member girl group. Hyeri has been recruited as a new member along with Yura (Kim Ah Young, 18) to fill the empty spots of Jiin and Jisun who left the team last September.

Girl’s Day (Sojin, Jihae, Yura, Minah, Hyeri) who reformed the team anew, released their second single ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ last October. While they failed to meet the expectations from their fans in many ways through the first single ‘Tilt My Head’, they put an end to the controversy over their vocal capabilities through ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ and showed their great improvement, so they even acquired the nickname ‘reversal-dol’.

Girl’s Day has been appearing on MBC ‘Bouquet’ which has made them widely known. In a mission called ‘Invent the choreography of a song with no choreography to show off your teamwork’, they  showed the original and unique dance moves with Beethoven’s Symphony No.5 by combining the choregraphy of 2PM the boy group, with the ‘Abracadabra’ dance of Brown Eyed Girls to give an impressive performance as an entertainment-dol.

They raised their recognition enough to appear on the reality program ‘I Love Girl’s Day'(T/N: This was a working title, and it later was called Kira Kira Slim.) which is going to be aired this January for 3 months. They’re going to visit Japan in February to have their first meeting with Japanese fans.

‘Cutie Honey’ aegyo dance attracted people’s attention.

Hyeri, the maknae who regenerates a new spirit for the team, attracted attention from the fans by her superb visual. She was recruited as a new school uniform model because of her innocent and cute look as soon as she made her debut. Hyeri said she dreamed of being a singer after she saw Lim Jeong Hee’s performance in her middle school days.

“I was impressed by Lim Jeong Hee sunbae’s vocals and expression when she sang “I Couldn’t Shed Tears” on TV. I thought that an occupation as a singer could move people’s minds, so I started to dream of being a singer.”

Hyeri, who used to like to sing and dance, started to practice singing and dancing afterwards alone by herself, and early last year, she had passed an audition held by the agency. She got a chance to debut when the former members of Girl’s Day left the team. It was in early November that she had her first stage. She is a rookie who debuted one month ago.

“My first stage? I still remember it clearly. Though I couldn’t show my skills as much as when I practiced, I was very nervous and happy then. I think we put in a lot of effort because the concept of this song was aimed to show a charismatic and powerful image, and the reception from people was nice.”

Hyeri who debuted one month ago feels more comfortable than before, and is gradually distinguishing herself on broadcast activities.

On a recent MBC Bouquet episode, she danced ‘Cutie Honey’ by Ayumi Lee which was full of cuteness and it received a hot response. She laughed and said ‘it was the dance that I usually like’ and continued “I’m getting used to broadcast activities little by little. I’m going to show my diverse charms from now on”.

The second single ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’, although promotion of the song has ended, it has special meaning to Hyeri. This song, which contains a strong beat and women’s warning messages towards men, garnered interest with their ‘goodbye dance’ and so forth.

94-Line? It looks like we’re versatile because we were born in the year of the Dog.

Hyeri’s dream is to work as a singer and an actress simultaneously. As she’s gaining more confidence while receiving training in acting, she predicts there will be news of her being casted within the first half of next year.

Like most of the rookie female singers, Hyeri’s role model is Um Jung Hwa as well. Hyeri has a dream of emitting a great deal of charms like Um Jung Hwa, who shows off her strong charisma and expression when she’s on stage, while she shows her completely different colors when she’s acting.

“First of all, I’d like to make myself more known with the new album scheduled to be released in upcoming February. And then I hope to come across a good project to show myself as an acting-dol. I’d like to play a fun role like Ha Ji won unnie of ‘Secret Garden'”

The reason Hyeri is gaining notice is that she is one of ‘the powerful 94-line’. That’s because there are several 94’ers who show brilliant images in the music industry such as Kang Ji Young of KARA, Sulli of f(x), and Suzy of Miss A, etc. She laughed, saying “it looks like we’re versatile because we were born in the year of the Dog.”, then revealed her mind saying “I’ll try to grow my star potential as much as theirs and I want to be the central axis of the 94-line afterwards.”

She also gained interest with her ‘Seungyeon and Oh Jong Hyuk look-alike’ appearance. Hyeri confessed “I’ve occasionally heard from people around me for a long time that I resembled Han Seungyeon unnie, and recently I hear a lot that I resemble Oh Jong Hyuk sunbaenim.” Hyeri who even gained the nickname ‘female Oh Jong Hyuk’, said calmly “It wouldn’t be bad for me if my name could be known once again by that gossip”.

Her profile which says that marathon is her specialty also attracted interest. As for the profile, Hyeri honestly confessed, “I used to be a long distance athlete when I was in elementary school. I was good enough to be a runner who represents the school. I just wrote marathon there for easier understanding. Actually I haven’t run the whole marathon at all.”

In comparison to a marathon, it can be seen that Hyeri has just passed the starting line. Only one month has passed since Hyeri made her debut as the maknae of Girl’s Day. Though there’s still a long way to go, she is confident that she has many things to show. Considering that Hyeri was smart enough to serve often as the Class President, she is going to welcome the year 2011, thinking of the truth which tells that a person only gets a chance when he does his utmost for his goal.

Who is Girl’s Day?

Girl’s Day, a 5-member female group, made their debut with ‘Tilt My Head’ last July, and gained their recognition through entertainment shows like MBC <Bouquet> and the like. They recruited Yura (18) and Hyeri (16) as new members instead of Jiin and Jisun, who left the team by themselves last September because of their different views on music, and Girl’s Day went into their promotion of the second single ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ in early November 2010.

Girl’s Day already has considerable fans gathered from Youtube and others. There are foreign fansites which are voluntarily created, and half of the 30,000 followers on Girl’s Day’s twitter account are foreign fans. Minah who appears on <Bouquet> is so popular that she is known for her 8000 foreign followers on her twitter account.

Girl’s Day received a suggestion about a contract from a famous agency in Japan and they’re under discussion about advancing into Japan, and they are already getting their results. In January 2011, the reality program ‘I Love Girl’s Day’ (T/N: This was a working title, and it later was called Kira Kira Slim.) which reveals the daily life of Girl’s Day will begin airing on Mnet Japan (Mnet Japan) for 3 months.

Through the program with a reality show format, Girl’s Day is going to unveil their unique charms, not to mention their trivial daily life, music, dance, cosmetic treatment, fashion tips, etc. Moreover they will have their first meeting with Japanese fans in February 2011.

Rather than focusing on the trends and hook songs, Girl’s Day is planning to differentiate themselves from other girl groups by powerful vocal and sophisticated stage presence.
