JOO is Trying Too Hard

Joo K-Pop Korean Music

Sub-par singer Joo went from ballads to dance songs to see if it'll help her gain a few fans. Unfortunately, everybody still hates her and the performance was kind of like a Chinese knock-off.

On a recent episode of Mnet 'M Countdown', Joo performed Boa's single, 'My Name'. She sang and danced, unlike her normal stand-still performances, and wore an outfit that was similar to the one that Boa wore in her music video. The audience gave Joo a round of applause or rather pity, for her futile attempt at being Boa.

After failing at her own songs, then failing at a remake of J's single, 'Like Yesterday', and failing, yet AGAIN, in Mighty Mouth's performance, I don't think this performance is going to make much of a difference. A suggestion for Joo, TAKE A BREAK; not like anyone's gonna miss, or so much as notice her absence.

Not the worst song I’ve heard. I certainly wouldn’t miss her though. Unless she is cheap and easy.

It’s not horrible… but why cover a song if you’re not going to sing it live? I wouldn’t miss her… I’m not too fond of her voice or even her songs.

I’m not even a fan of Joo’s, but damn this was uncalled for…people are always on hater mode when anyone performs Boa’s stuff.. i don’t get whats all this fuss about, since Boa isn’t really all that impressive… Joo shouldn’t even sing that retarded song in the first place… blah

it wasn’t that bad - the singing and dancing - but she’s not even close to boa. and she looks like a 13 year old. no energy in the performance, though, and it wasn’t even live

vertigo: if you think the song is retarded, then it’s definitely perfect for joo.

Hahahaha, it’s okay Ch0 unni, at least you weren’t nasty about it… *Twitch* <strike>though I already sorta knew</strike>:lol:

Plus, I hate Bi but TheProdigy likes him lots… so I guess we’re gonna have to get used to these things since we work together. Just like how Mitch unni loves Big Bang and… well you catch my drift :D

her voice always sounds like a little child with a slight cold.
she should step away for a bit and then mebbe try again.

Is she singing that song?  At the beginning of her singing, she looks like she stops a couple times and her lips didn’t match the song being song.  Is she lip syncing?

How old is she? 10 yrs old! She sounds and looks like a little girl.

LOL! I finally get the caption… her boobs and… yeah xD
When I saw this yesterday, I didn’t think it was THAT bad. Her voice was okay, but her charisma is totally diff from BoA… This song is supposed to be sexy, strong, and seductive. Joo is as sexy and seductive as a 12 year old to a pedo… wait…
LOL;

And there’s too much smiling. Not enough abs going on either :T

wtf..why is she smiling throughout the song?! Her dancing was okay, but her singing and the way she performs just..sucks.

that performance is horrible, i mean that joo must be in jail, she ruined the song, the dance was totally plane and the singing too soft for the song. How she dares to cover a Boa’s song (specially that one)

She looks like a 12yo girl imitating BoA while lipsyncing .___.‘’
And the she does that.. *shake**shake* move (whatever you call it).. it looks SO awkward u__u

She sucks. BoA blows her out of the water

Oh how many people have dubbed artists as the second BoA. Joo needs a new makeover. Doing a cover song of BoA is not something everyone can do. BoA doesnt have all the vocals but she does have the charisma . Joo should return back to training

her smile is annoying
let me rephrase that her WHOLE face is annoying
but I have to admit that her voice is pretty good

I dont know which is more pathetic. the fact that she is touching her unvisible chest to get some attention or the fact that she keeps trying even though she fails all the time.

 

10 May 2008 - 11:23 AM37. crystal199187

she looks like a 10 year old trying to be sexy…
she looks so pathetic…
i’m not gonna bother listening to her cos her face just doesn’t attracts me…she should just disappear…i dunno whether anyone’s gonna miss her but it’s definitely not me…lol

All these kind of things make me miss the real BOA.
Come on, why did Joo perform this song? She looks like a kid who wants to be a sexy woman. Her childish voice didn’t match at all the song. Boa has a strong voice and her little voice sounds pitiful.
At least she got the dance steps right, but without any energy and yet she couldn’t follow the lyrics.

It’s hard to beat the original. Unless the original is Joo, because Taeyeon totally pwned her in her own song.

^ LOL at the taeyeon comment.
I’m not really annoyed Joo for taking BoA’s song…I could care less. But really, her lack of stage presence and the fact that she looks likea freaking ten-year-old wannabe annoys the heck out of me.
Caption was hilarious. :D

BoA’s okay…not too bad (don’t listen to her that often) but WAY better than Joo!
