K Bites – 15.07.2009 III (SeeYa Nam GyuRi, 2NE1-SNSD-4Minute)

Nam GyuRi to return to SeeYa?

nkr_150709It has been said that SeeYa Nam GyuRi has initiated communication with the company, and all eyes are on how the discussion will turn out.

Some have suggested, “Nam GyuRi has got back to good terms with the company”, “She will return to SeeYa” etc. With that SeeYa’s company Core Contents Media came out to deny such rumours.

Last April, there has been issues between Nam GyuRi and the company on complications of exclusive belonging rights of their contract. And recently she has been meeting up with the company for discussions, but the company insisted that she is still undecided on what to take on next.

One official said, “They met to confirm each other’s stand. The decision lies in Nam GyuRi. She was also the one who brought up the problem against the company. If she is to return as SeeYa, there isn’t any problem.”

There is also one official who stated, “Even though they met up, there isn’t any development from there. Nothing is decided.”


[Interview] How are So Nyeo Shi Dae and 4Minute in the eyes of 2NE1?

2ne1_150709

2NE1 speaks up truthfully about this whole issue of ‘war of girlgroups’ and also what they think of the other girl groups like So Nyeo Shi Dae and 4Minute.

They said in a recent interview, “We feel that the other groups have their own charms and specialities and we also get to learn from them in always working so hard. Instead of calling it ‘war of girlgroups’, it is more like all of us as females showing the ‘woman power’.”

They continued, “It would be good that 2NE1, So Nyeo Shi Dae, 4Minute will be able to capture fans’ heart through our cool performances on stage. It is because we are not standing in different places, but we are altogether in one place.”

“Our weakness is our group dancing. We are weak as a group dancing together after we have been into our individual training lifestyle for long. So Nyeo Shi Dae on the other hand are really good at group dancing and we are envious of that. There are many times when we are surprised at how synchronised their angles and lines are.”

They continued, “And for 4Minute, our thoughts are ‘they are really hardworking’ and ‘they put in much effort’. They encourage/stimulate us on.”

Meanwhile, the girls are promoting their title song off their 1st minialbum ‘I Don’t Care’ gaining much popularity together with other girlgroups like So Nyeo Shi Dae and 4Minute who are also promoting their songs.

  1. Tiffany is bringing SNSD down in terms of dancing lol
    CL and Minzy are both good though, dont know bout the other 2.

  2. The Seeya debacle is still going on?!?! Goodness, Nam Gyuri seems to be bargaining for more than what she deserves huh?

    • Gyuri should stay away, she was the weaker link in the group and Boram and YeonJi are way better of as a duo, or to get a new member, maybe one of the ex T-ara girls.

  3. That’s. What. I’m. Talking. About. GIRL POWER!

  4. Nam Gyuri back in Seeya. Eek. Don’t really want to see that happening.

  5. oh my. NICE answer 2NE1! yes! its GIRL POWER!!! more <333 :)

  6. See even 2NE1 said so themselves that they are good at group dancing. I think fans should not hound on people who said so..2NE1 definitely have room to improve. Same as the rest of the groups.

    Respect. And definitely girl power!!

  7. wtheck?are 2ne1 reading kbites?weren’t people saying this about them a few days ago?I also think they go on soompi,this is too weird but I’m glad they know what to work on.

    • Lol..maybe they are regulars here..but yeah criticisms work two ways too..they can improve in that area.

      • yeah it does.i remember in soompi when someone recommended YG to put them on a music show once a week and BAM the next day he made the announcement that they’ll only perform once a week.and the little things fans said they wanted them to work on have also been done so it makes me wonder if they actually do go to these sites which wouldn’t surprise me since Dara wrote a note to soompi fans.

    • The note to soompi was fake.

      • I’m not talking about the fake myspace letter,I’m talking about the short thank you note she signed to one of her fans.http://i33.tinypic.com/10yi7hz.jpg

    • OMG!!! The note was so cool! Sandara is really caring to her fans. She still updates on her Pinoy xchange thread and she still replies. Where did u find the pic of the note?

  8. I love the girls for being honest & not ashamed to admit their weakness^_^
    2NE1 is still a rookie, thet still ahve A LOT OF TIME to get better & better.
    Can’t wait to watch their other improvement^_^

    Go 2NE1

  9. I’m loving 2NE1’s reply. They admit to their weaknesses and consider other groups’ strengths as a basis for working hard. Competitive against themselves and not one to bring other groups down. Very healthy outlook in terms of the “war of girlgroups”. Whoever’s their PR should be commended by this well versed reply.

  10. loveskpop should read this :)
    2NE1 FIGHTING@@@@@@

  11. i really love 2NE1 for being honest and showing respect to other female groups ^_^
    about nam gyu ri returning back to seeya as seeya fan i want her to go back to seeya b/c without gyuri seeya will never be the same

  12. I really love the way they talk about their sunbaes. These girls are amazing.

  13. I like how they say they’re “…standing altogether in one place.” wait that was a metaphor right? lol

  14. I’m not surprised that Nam GyuRi will go/want to go back to Mnet. It seems that Mnet is one of the bigger companies in Korea, so unless the BIG ones like YG take her in, the smaller ones might risk offending Mnet…?

    About 2NE1’s reply, it was kinda funny since there was sort of a debate going on kbites not too long ago about their group dancing skills XD

  15. I’m glad 2NE1 don’t seem to feel competitive which is good too just like 4minute were in another interview. I like the way they said that, “we are altogether in one place.”

    That’s why I love them.

  16. I really lost my love to Nam Gyuri after she speaks so bad about the other SeeYa’s member & Mnet.

    And now… she want to back to SeeYa????
    Doesn’t she ashamed of her self????
    Gosh…

    About 2NE1,…. I love them more & more every single day.
    Go 2NE1

  17. I personally think that 2NE1 are good dancers. Heck I’ve never seen anyone sing and split at the same time like Minzy.

    But like most Korean singers, if they are going to dance, they shouldn’t forget about their vocals. Sometimes 2NE1 are being too energetic that they lose energy for singing.

    I wish Korean singers would try to remember that they are singers and focus on that.

    • 2NE1 are good dancers. But they are saying how.they are not good at GROUP dancing. Which basically means being in-sync(did I spell it wrong). Overall, i like the girls, they are very honest and nice.

  18. Nica answers….. I like how they try to learn from sunbae (snsd) n motivate themselves from hoobae’s (4min) perf. ^^
    Yes, girl power FTW!!!!!
    I honestly want some 2ne1 n snsd interaction.
    Just like how SNSD are friends with wg n kara. =)

  19. Wow 2NE1. You guys are good too.
    Yeah i liked their answers. Yes it’s Girl Power.

  20. I’m impressed with how they answered. That’s really good. Keep up the good work girls. 2NE1 fighting! ^^

  21. That’s how I’ve always seen this surge of quality girl groups, unlike last year with the boy groups. GIRL POWER!
    too long has the idol industry in kpop been controlled by the fans of boy groups.
    I really would like to see some 2NE1/SNSD interaction. I feel like they would get along and have funny/cute interactions.

  22. I agree w/ what 2NE1 said. ;] It ain’t no war.

  23. So glad finally a girl group in Kpop spoke about this “war of girl groups” going on this year. The fact that 2NE1 made that statement gave much more meaning since they just debuted this year, no matter what others speculate about it. hehe.

    I love it. GIRL POWER! =)

    ~ I like to think that 2NE1, or some of the members likes to read English-written Kpop sites *like KBites* and gets feedback from their international fans. hihi.

  24. thats good to know 2NE1 knows what are they strength and weakneses.
    and if 2ne1 does read international fan blogs. well people internationally ” i think ” they are more open-minded but “wild” at the same time. lol

    You guys has still a long way to go. just always makes a room for improvement and were here to support.
    2NE1 fighting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
