What Sunmi's (former Wonder Girls) success brings
ソンミ(元Wonder Girls)の成功がもたらすもの
Former Wonder Girls member Sunmi wins first place on Inkigayo, achieving six crowns...a glamorous goodbye stage
Sunmi boasts overwhelming charisma with her slim figure as a role model for her juniors.
In the heyday of group music, it is not easy for a solo singer to win first place on a TV music show.
Sunmi has easily managed to do so even after her comeback.
This time, she beat out her tough rivals, Girls' Generation's Oh! GG and SHAUN, to take first place. This marks her sixth crown.
In the past, when members of girl groups went solo, they mostly did ballad-type music.
However, in the future, there may be more members who go solo with Sunmi-style performances.
Here too, it was girls and female solo singers who competed for first place.
For boys, BTS went far away to America to excite their fans.
However, in Korea, where K-pop originates, girls and female singers are leading the way.
The success of Sunmi, who was a member of the girl group Wonder Girls and returned to the stage as a solo artist after the group disbanded, is worthy of attention as it hints at future developments in K-pop.
As is known from BTS, BIGBANG, Tohoshinki, TWICE, and BLACKPINK, it is group dance music that is helping K-pop secure its global status.
BIGBANG and Tohoshinki have been building up careers for 10 years.
A few years ago, members began performing on stage as solo singers alongside their group activities.
Sunmi stayed in Korea and performed solo when Wonder Girls were expanding into the US.
She returned as a solo singer after her group disbanded.
Watching her perform on stage, one gets the impression that she is not only boosted by her improved technical level, but also by the experiences she gained from her group experience.
Although it's not the same as the yellowtail or the sea bass, it seems that from now on we will see more members who have been in boys' or girls' groups make their solo debuts after their group disbands or they graduate.
In order to achieve future success, it will be important to not only put in hard work in singing and dancing, but also to polish up your own character image.
