		<description>In a way, I agree, because I admire JYP and his ability to market trends. Obviously, he is aware that they have no real raw talent, which I realized at some point, is part of their charm, in the same way that Sohee&#039;s inability to hold a note and her Lolita-esque appearance makes her very cute and cuddly to older men. Eww, but true. The ease of the Tell Me dance and the &quot;cute sexy&quot; of the whole thing are things that hit a very particularly Korean bullseye. Which is why I doubt they&#039;ll ever succeed in the States, except as a niche group for teens; I don&#039;t think their sexiness carries over to the US pop market, on top of there not being such a desire for obviously young women -- Britney Spears there was, but her sexiness was always tongue-in-cheek, and a factor always acknowledged to be IN PLAY, from the controversial &quot;Hit Me&quot; first video set in naughty schoolgirl outfits, her culture-shocking red outfit in her next big hit, and then her overt crossover into outright outrageous sexiness, which actually in itself didn&#039;t really work, since it confused her teen demographic. 

The US is a pop music culture, however, that is generally far more used to &quot;mature&quot; themes and performers, from Destiny&#039;s Child/Beyonce to oversexed R&amp;B acts, to the extreme sexualities/identities of Madonna and the like. I can&#039;t see WG entering that arena based on sex appeal, and while cuteness goes a long way in East Asia, it won&#039;t take you that far as a pop act in the US. So, stripped of either &quot;sexy&quot; or &quot;cute&quot;, you are left with talent, which the WG simply don&#039;t have. And most Americans aren&#039;t going to see them as the cute little &quot;dongsaeng&quot; in the way Koreans do. And hence, after a bit of niche success right after their initial push, the WG will fade from the American pop landscape quicker than the value of Rain tix in LA can drop to near zero.

I do see the genius of their marketing -- I just wish the Korean pop music market wasn&#039;t becoming quite nearly the realm of teenagers for the sake of quick bucks. Even ten years ago, you had more variety out there at the top levels, with more actual ADULTS or different genres of music dominating the top twenty. And even amongst your big teeny-type groups, they were quite obviously far more talented and fun, and at least hopped around more, as opposed to shaking ass in fetish costume. Give me an Lee Sora or H.O.T or Cool or Kim Gun Mo or even a bubblegum pop Two Two or UP ferchrissakes. And JYP was also in effect during the mid-90&#039;s.

Unfortunately, I think it&#039;s more than just me getting old. I simply think that the quest for quick bucks by essentially turning to high-class doumi for music has erased the variety and sheer amount of talent that used to be out there. Korean pop used to be fun quirky, and sometimes great, sometimes embarrassing. Now, it&#039;s just become blah and kinda continuously embarrassing, at least to me.</description>

		<description>The only thing I can say about them is: they provide entertainment, that&#039;s all. I&#039;m not a fan or a hater of WG but personally, I just think they are overrated. I&#039;ve seen posts elsewhere where people are told off (in a rather rude way) just because they complained of the WG&#039;s abilities and quality. Let&#039;s all face it. WG is a &#039;product&#039; and their company has &#039;marketed&#039; them successfully. Just like how not everyone likes Coke, but they still dominate the market. It&#039;s only a matter of time before another all-girls idol group will pop out and overtake the market share. Just view WG from a commercial perspective and you will instead, admire the marketing strategies their company employ. At least, this should deflect the utter dislike you have for them in a rather positive way.</description>

		<description>Hello guys. I&#039;m Mexican and the same way that the other people, I knew to Wonder Girs and their Wave. What is the reason?  they are SO SO popular. In Mexico speak spanish, the people dont understand the korean or english language, is a poor country, the internet yet has many difficults, BUT We Know to Wonder Girls and a little of the korean culture.
Conclusion: The Wonder Girls are amazing.
Thanks for readme.</description>

		<description>All I got to say is that if I can&#039;t see these girls distinguish themselves individually, if I can&#039;t see them as a solo artist...I think future is bleak. Look at Big Bang, I know YG, but just walk with me. Each member in BB can be seen as a solo artist, distinguishable and with unique abilities. These guys have the power to make one feel excited to see what they are going to bring forth as a group and a solo artist. Whereas WG, oh dear me, I can&#039;t feel any creative vibe from them.</description>

		<description>um.. i love tell me ! lol...you should check more of their songs recently. All of the members shows alot of improvement. especially So hee. Their dancing is awesome, in tell me, so hot and nobody!. I thinkTheses girls have talents and a lot of charisma. i love their personalities!.especially sunmi lol!!.. If you get to know them more, than you can judge them if they can&#039;t dance, sing, or have talents or not. at first for me when i saw their irony performance back in the day i hated them lol..i was thinking wat kind of music is this?? that was my first korean music experience. then when i get to hear and see more of wonder girls, i fall in love with them. lol...Oh and one more thing i have to add. This girls works so hard to be where they are today. And how do i know?? cuz i saw their interview on Star Show and many other interviews. I guess the girls will improves since they are still young, they go to school and they have to work everyday performing on stage especially for Sohee and Sunmi since they are still in freshman year in high school, It&#039;s really tiring. So i guess before you make judgement of others you should give people the benefit of a doubt or chances. Im sure you don&#039;t like being judge neither. And one more thing: in their new album NObody one of the member which is Ye Eun compose the song Saying i love you. Such a sweet songs.</description>

		<description>Wow -- 콤멘트를 올려주니까 고마워요. 

근데 이 건 악풀아니에요. 그냥 JYP를 원래 좋아하지만 (진짜 재능이 있다고 하니까) 원더걸즈는 특별한 재능이 없다고 생각해요. 그리고 더욱더 왜 이린 애들이 점점 더 일면서도 이렇게 성적으로 나오는 건 반대도 하고요. 그냥 길게 얘기안해도 (더 자세히 여러 글에서 더 깊이 설명도 했어요) 무처권 악풀처럼 -- &quot;미워! 싫어!&quot; -- 그냥 욕하고 가버리는 것아니라 왜 안좋다고 생각하는지 다 얘기하고 그리고 누가 썼는지 다 공개합니다. 

동의하지 않으시면 자기 선택이라고 생각해요. 그 걸 존경해요. 누구나의 안동의하는 권리를 존경해요. 

근데 악풀은 욕도 쓰고. 누가 바뀔 수 없는 생김새, 인종, 성, 그런 것에 대해서 뭐라고 기분 나쁘게 하고. 그리고 이유도 설명도 안하고 그냥 단순한 &#039;싫다&#039;고 하고 익명으로 올리고 가버리는 거예요.

아무리 개인적으로 기분이 나빠도 제가 봤을 때는 원더걸즈만아니라 대부분 요새 나오는 사람들이 옛날처럼 재능이 있는 것보다 생김새와 마케팅밖에 생각안 해요. 다른식으로 말하면 JYP얼마나 잘했는데 원더걸즈는 그의 수준도아니란 말이죠. 

하야튼 이 글이 쓴지 오래 됐어요. 어느정도 제 생각이 바뀐 거예요. 왜 Tell Me는 인기 있었는지 그리고 재능도 없는 그 걸그룹이 그 노래를 부르는 건 왜 나름대로 재밌는지 좀 느껴진 거예요. 그리고 JYP도 이 애들이 특별한 재능이 없는 걸 알면서도 세계한테 소개해주는 건 얼마나 똑똑한 건지 이젠 느껴지는 거예요. JYP는 진짜 마케팅 그리고 한국의 유행/열풍 그런 것들을 얼마나 잘아닌지 이젠 알게 된 거예요. 

근데 처음부터 주장 한 건 -- 원더걸즈는 재능이 없는 것 -- 그 생각 안 바뀠습니다. 제가 미국사람이라서 그런지 모르겠지만 자기 솔직한 생각이고 무슨 &#039;악풀&#039;아니라고 생각합니다.</description>

		<description>영어를 잘 못해서 그냥 한글로 몇자 적어봅니다.


일단

처음에 객관적인 평가를 얘기하시다가요

리플에서는 그냥 개인의 블로그 의견임을 강변하셨거든요.

그거 일종의 모순아닌가요?

차라리 그냥 주관적인 평가라고 처음부터 얘기를 하시는 것이

좋았을 겁니다.

그리고 원더걸스 텔미 열풍에 대해 길게 써 주셨는데요.

한국 대중 문화에 대해 잘 아시는 분 치고는

왜 원더걸스 텔미 열풍이 어리석은 건지에 대한

분석이 너무 허접하네요.

그냥 자기가 보기에 이상하니깐 그 느낌을

적은 글 같아서요.

한국에서도 원더걸스 텔미 열풍에 대해 무조건 좋은 의견만 

있는 것도 아니고 

말 그대로 원더걸스와 텔미라는 노래 그리고

제작자인 박진영에 대한 일종의 심도 깊은 분석이

( 노래 탄생 과정부터 소위 텔미 열풍의 모든 것 까지 )

많이 이루어진 걸로 알고 있습니다.

최소한 그런 글들을 읽어나 보시고

텔미 열풍이 어리석다

원더걸스 문제있다

이런식의 글을 쓰시는 건가요?

유감이지만

이런 글은 솔직히 말해서

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>영어를 잘 못해서 그냥 한글로 몇자 적어봅니다.</p>
<p>일단</p>
<p>처음에 객관적인 평가를 얘기하시다가요</p>
<p>리플에서는 그냥 개인의 블로그 의견임을 강변하셨거든요.</p>
<p>그거 일종의 모순아닌가요?</p>
<p>차라리 그냥 주관적인 평가라고 처음부터 얘기를 하시는 것이</p>
<p>좋았을 겁니다.</p>
<p>그리고 원더걸스 텔미 열풍에 대해 길게 써 주셨는데요.</p>
<p>한국 대중 문화에 대해 잘 아시는 분 치고는</p>
<p>왜 원더걸스 텔미 열풍이 어리석은 건지에 대한</p>
<p>분석이 너무 허접하네요.</p>
<p>그냥 자기가 보기에 이상하니깐 그 느낌을</p>
<p>적은 글 같아서요.</p>
<p>한국에서도 원더걸스 텔미 열풍에 대해 무조건 좋은 의견만 </p>
<p>있는 것도 아니고 </p>
<p>말 그대로 원더걸스와 텔미라는 노래 그리고</p>
<p>제작자인 박진영에 대한 일종의 심도 깊은 분석이</p>
<p>( 노래 탄생 과정부터 소위 텔미 열풍의 모든 것 까지 )</p>
<p>많이 이루어진 걸로 알고 있습니다.</p>
<p>최소한 그런 글들을 읽어나 보시고</p>
<p>텔미 열풍이 어리석다</p>
<p>원더걸스 문제있다</p>
<p>이런식의 글을 쓰시는 건가요?</p>
<p>유감이지만</p>
<p>이런 글은 솔직히 말해서</p>
<p>한국으로 치면</p>
<p>인터넷 키보드 워리어의 악플 수준 밖에는 안되보이네요.</p>

		<description>Well, perhaps I was a bit harsh. I just don&#039;t like the present state of K-Pop, because I see all these megagroups and very little relative talent. I long for the days when talent meant for something, not just 35 singers in an army formation. The 90&#039;s were rougher around the edges, but in a way, much more fun.</description>

		<description>You shouldn&#039;t say they don&#039;t have talent only based on Tell Me. Of course you can dance like that, and that&#039;s the point. Because everyone can do it, more people will get into the &quot;wave&quot;. But they CAN dance AND sing, Tell Me just don&#039;t do their justice. When singing ballads only So Hee can&#039;t really sing, when dancing to Irony and This Fool they can show a bit of their moves. 
But then, it&#039;s JYP that don&#039;t give them a song where they show their potential. How can you sing properly on Tell Me and So Hot? You can&#039;t use vibrato or anything else on songs like that, so judging WG on these songs are totally pointless. 
I didn&#039;t really like them either when I heard Tell Me, but damn, that&#039;s one catchy song! And once I&#039;ve heard and seen their perf of other songs, I loved them. Of course they&#039;re not BoA or DBSK or even Hyori, but they only have 1 professional year behind them, there&#039;s still room for improvements.
About underage statement, you should check out for Sweaty, that group is made of kids under 12.</description>

		<description>This remind me of Linkin Park&#039;s case, where many Rock fans criticize LP for their music. They said that LP&#039;s music are not good enough and things like that. 

So what ? In the end, many still like LP, and the fact that they are one of the most well-known rock band (or &#039;whatsoever band&#039; that you want to call &#039;em) ever, not just within the &quot;Rock community&quot;. Part of it was because their music was easy to listen and their lyrics were something that you can easy understand. 

So, take it easy, guys. We are not talking about can the WG sing or dance or not. They CAN sing and dance, to some extent, alright ? :) 

Of course there are other controversy, like their underage state, unsuitable sexy dancing.... and so on. But I won&#039;t talk about it. Since all over the world, there are teenager pregnancy, students related to drugs, shooting, smoking... In American films, for examples, these scenes are quite popular and who say that the teenagers won&#039;t be affected by it ? 

It&#039;s the adults who brought the youngsters to these are to blame, not the youngsters themselves. They might don&#039;t even understand what are they doing. 

So it&#039;s the adults who need to take responsibility. They can act, they can educate their child, they can prevent others from polluting the children&#039;s mind, ... . They should do something rather than just complain about it.</description>

		<description>LOL @ HannahMont2.  This is a blog.  The author can express his opinion, on any topic, in any way he wants.  If you can&#039;t cope with the fact that someone has a different opinion than you, I suggest disconnecting your internet service and living in a cave.  Your other option would be to grow up because, quite frankly, your passionate display of affection for the Wonder Girls is a little creepy.</description>

		<description>yes, they have no talent. although compared to the others, yeun and sunye are better. only when compared to their bandmates though. 
i dont mind that the dance is super simple and that they&#039;re not very good- i enjoy a trend or two once n a while. i agree, this one was way overdone, but it was fun when it was just catching on.</description>

Help me! 

Help me. H-h-h-h-h-help me.

Nooooooo!</description>
