Sunye, who appeared on "Radio Star," expresses a positive stance on the possibility of a reunion of the legendary girl group Wonder Girls. She will also reveal behind-the-scenes details of the 'Bangirl' stage that became a hot topic after performing with Big Bang at a past year-end awards ceremony.
Tonight (12th), MBC's "Radio Star" (planned by Kang Young-sun, directed by Kim Myung-yeob and Hwang Yoon-sang) will be decorated with a 'limitless challenge' special featuring Park Kyung-rim, Sunye, Ha Won-mi, and Jeong Dong-won.
Sunye, who was the leader of Wonder Girls, appears on "Radio Star" to share her recent activities. Recently, she has been active in the musical "Dream High," in which Park Kyung-rim is participating as a creative director, taking on the role of 'Baek-hee.' She mentions that the style of her former agency JYP, which emphasizes 'half air, half sound,' has greatly helped her. She attributes her ability to perform musical acting and singing to Jinyoung Park's usual teaching to 'sing as if talking.'
Next, Sunye showcases a verse from Jinyoung Park's "A Breakup in Broad Daylight," in which she featured, demonstrating the differences between musical and general singing techniques, capturing attention.
Recently, Sunye drew attention by taking the stage as Wonder Girls at Jinyoung Park's 30th anniversary concert after 12 years. He fondly recalls the moment, noting, "It felt like previewing Jinyoung's birthday party," as god, 2PM, 2AM, and TWICE were all present. When asked about the possibility of a Wonder Girls reunion, he responded positively, saying, "If it's a good opportunity..."
Additionally, Sunye shared a vivid account of Wonder Girls' entry into the Billboard HOT 100 chart with "Nobody" as the first Korean artists. Unlike now, at that time, YouTube and social media were not active, so they had to go around the United States promoting by handing out flyers with Jinyoung Park, engaging in 'on-foot' promotions.
In particular, Sunye, who was the leader, humorously mentioned that she played a role similar to a 'president of the committee.' He explained that the timing of their activities often coincided with Big Bang's, and they attracted fans' attention by preparing a 'collaborative stage' for the year-end awards ceremony.
He noted that fans referred to the two groups as 'Bangirl,' and although they were peers during practice, there was a cautious tension, stating, "We never let our guard down with each other." They would ask for permission whenever physical contact was necessary. Additionally, the leaders of both groups, Sunye and GD (G-Dragon), often collaborated on stage, drawing attention. Sunye went on to reveal a comment made by Big Bang's Taeyang that brought laughter to the studio.
Sunye, who continues her unlimited challenges from being the leader of the first-generation girl group Wonder Girls to a musical actress, can be seen on "Radio Star," airing tonight (12th) at 10:30 p.m.
