Sunmi (former Wonder Girls), recovering from illness...on schedule
Korean singer Sunmi (former Wonder Girls) has recovered from illness.
MakeUs Entertainment, Sunmi's agency, said on the 17th, "Sunmi has taken two days off and is recovering," and "will continue with her scheduled schedule."
Sunmi complained of dizziness during a pre-recording for KBS's music program "MUSIC BANK" on the 14th and was taken to the hospital.
She was treated at the hospital and took time off by canceling her program appearances and postponing her autograph signings.
Sunmi is currently promoting her new song "Siren."
(From K-POP News)
Sunmi, who had postponed her program appearances and autograph signings due to poor health, will resume her activities.
After Wonder Girls disbanded, Sunmi moved to another agency. Since her solo comeback with "gashina," she has been performing at the top of her game, right up to this latest song, "Siren."
I don't watch many solo performances on music shows, but I watch Sunmi's performances a lot.
I also watch a little bit of Chungha... I watch solo ballads by Taeyeon and other girls in MVs, but only occasionally.
Group dance music dominates music show stages.
In that context, solo ballads can feel drawn-out.
But at big concerts, solo performances that allow for a breather or two can be quite enjoyable.
Particularly when watching the performances of units and solo performances by popular boys and girls, you can feel the dedication of these guys/girls, which we don't usually get to see, and it makes me happy.
"Even though they're busy, they're still practicing."
I guess it's because of the rivalry between those who perform on the same stage...
It seems that it is becoming more difficult for solo singers who do not have a strong impact (charm) to appear on music stages crowded with popular boys and girls.
Lip syncing may be permitted on stages involving intense movements.
However, if your dance gets lost among the backing dancers, you are no longer needed as a solo singer.
It is unavoidable if you cannot sustain a performance for several minutes.
It is difficult for solo singers to maintain their presence these days unless they have that level of dance.
The audience is filled with fans who want to listen to the song while watching the dance.
Apart from the veterans, it seems that only young singers, Sunmi and Chungha, are able to handle music with dance performances on today's stages.
Taeyeon (Girls' Generation) is apparently holding a concert in October, and it will be interesting to see whether she will include a Sunmi-style dance stage during her performance.
