Lee Hi "1,2,3,4"

This week's Music Monday's awkwardness will be TOO DAMN HIGH with Lee Hi's 1,2,3,4 Now like I mentioned it on Kpop Charts past weekend I wasn't sure but was pretty sure that I was Lee Hi's former teacher I did more research during the weekend and now I'm 100% sure She used to be my student It's official In the video here, she says about the school i used to teach in 2 years ago and the footage shows a lot students I remember teaching in the same class that I remember So yes, she was my former student If you are here to hear awkward stories about her, I'm gonna save that at the end of Music Monday For now, I've gotta do the review of the song and the video but I'm gonna feel very awkward saying bad about her HI, Lee Hi, I didn't teach you before so I don't feel the awkward love of my husband does Prepare for on lame jokes and awkward skits based on tiny irrelevant observations But first, let me clearly and unbiasedly say that this is a great song We keep it real here in eatyourkimchi and won't let our personal connections loosen.... not really connected at all Get in the way busting the truth The fact is, Lee Hi is undeniably awesome at singing with freakingly phenomenal voice and fantastic vocal range And YG debuted her with a song that they unlikely regularly produce and unlike anything in kpop It's very soulful and has a Amy Whinehouse feel to it minus all that substance abuse Our only problem with the video is that there is inverse relationship happening here Lee Hi is great at singing as she is bad at acting like wow, and I don't wanna be harsh on her because we know that this is her first music video and she's still quite young, I think she's around 16 and she'll get better over time and learn to relax in her music videos In fact, we've seen her live performance, and it was so much better But whoever YG sent as her acting coach for the music video needs to be replaced In fact, we didn't think she needed to act in her music video Her voice is amazing enough that they could have debuted her as a singer Singing into a mic looking classic and sassy while back up dancers are like flaring at the background That whole like walking and expressing emotions while moving her lips and singing thing didn't work out too well She barely opens her mouth when she moves her lips when she sings Wait, why is that so familiar? OK, I have a theory about this We've notice that couple of people in YG such as TOP and Park Bom and now Lee Hi don't really moves their mouth in music videos This is a distinctly YG thing My guess why YG label has learned to notice the symptoms of Flaccid Jaw Syndrom that horrible disease that we documented extensively in our 4minute "Volume Up" video YG interns are doing their best to protect catching this disease by NOT OPENING THEIR MOUTH Sounds like an incredible theory to me or they are just good at ventriloquism I'm really proud of you Lee Hi You did a great job on you music video Wow, really? Thank you TOP, ! I couldn't have done it with your guidance I really saw my training has shawn through in your actings were very profound Really? wow! Any recommendations? Is there anything to improve? If anything I found that you are what was I saying? Oh yeah, did I tell you about my new colon Be On Top made by men for men Well, not for getting men but if you want to get men, then it's ok I'm ok if you are ok with that Is also for picking up women Hey, YG! We've talked about this in 2NE1 video Whoever edits your music videos I really think you need to fire them because the dubbing is always irritatingly and distractingly off The dubbing is not any of the artist's fault so...you know... we love you but if you could just fix that That would be super! [The English] As for the English of the song I unbiasedly give Lee Hi the highest mark that anyone has received in Music Monday 9423 out of 5 Because I used to teach her English and as a result the score is more of a reflection of my abilities as a teacher than at the actual rating of the English of the song One thing I would say about the English tough, good lord!! Did you see the sign on the side of the back of the beginning of the video? It reads, 'If you don't mean what you say' 'Shut the F$%**#$ Up' GOOD LORD!!!!! Let the record show, I personally never taught Lee Hi, that kind of language in English in class Good morning class F(($#*)%($)%#(% God!!!!! F*^*)&(*)&(*!#$%^ And that boys and girls, that is how you say good morning in Polish! F(($#*)%($)%#(% [The showdown] Last week's showdown, we asked you which video was womanly powerful messaged you preferred Miss A's "I don't need a man" or 4minutes' "What a girl want" and oh boy, did Miss A won something like 95% of the votes For this week's showdown we ask you Who is the best actor in YG? Lee Hi in "1,2,3,4" or Park Bom in "Don't Cry" Both lacking the boom in their Boomshakalaka Leave your emotionless votes in the emotionless comment and we'll announce the emotionless winner next week Also if you have a video you want us to do for next Music Monday put in your votes in eatyourkimchi.com/kpopcharts Whoever is in 1st place Saturday midnight, we'll review, so get voting Lastly, don't forget to Like it and Favorite this video and subscribe for more Music Mondays Take it away WAIT!
