5dolls Eunkyo, miss A’s Suzy, and Girl’s Day’s Hyeri pose together at their high school’s library
Recently, an online community bulletin board posted a group photo of 5dolls’ Eunkyo, miss A’s Suzy and Girl’s Day Hyeri at school.
In the photos, the three students from Seoul’s School of Performing Arts (SOPA) are seen wearing their school’s yellow jacket and black skirt while showing their cute “V” pose. The photo has also garnered a lot of attention for their bright hair colors, especially Eunkyo’s red and Suzy’s blonde hair, that are usually not allowed in normal schools.
Besides noticing the variety of the school girls’ hair colors, netizens commented about their awkward expression and pointed out that f(x)’s Sulli also studies there.
But in the photo, there are also two young men with blurred faces. Upon further investigation it was discovered that these two students are magician Ha Jaeyong and actor Lee Ilmin.
Lee Ilmin has appeared in dramas like MBC “Assorted Gems,” and most recently, in KBS “I Believe in Love,” which is currently airing. Meanwhile, the 17 year old Ha Jaeyong performs his magic acts around the world and has won numerous awards as one of the best magicians.
The group photo was taken on April 22nd during an important visit to the school, where 36 delegates received a tour of the facilities and were also able to meet some of the school’s stars at the library and take photos with them.
Take a look at some of the photos below.
From the looks of it, we could say that SOPA might be the closest thing to a real life Kirin Arts High School like KBS “Dream High”, don’t you think?

5dolls’ Soomi talks about going from maknae to leader
In an interview with Chosun Ilbo, 5dolls’ leader Soomi has spoken a little about her jump from maknae to leader. Soomi had earlier debuted as the youngest member of girl group SeeYa in 2009, but transferred to the 10 member group ‘Co-Ed’ in 2010. She has now had her third debut as the leader of Co-Ed’s female sub-unit, 5dolls.
Soomi said, “When I was SeeYa’s maknae, I always relied on my unnies. And now that I’m a leader, I really feel the pressure and I always get stressed because of it.” Soomi insists that her concerns about “not getting the other members hurt” is what drives her to work hard.
Soomi further explained that her earlier vocation as a stewardess is not something she hopes to do in the future. “I watched JYP audition and was chosen for Park Jin Young’s “Gifted Development Project 99% Challenge”. With being a young age and having to live away from my parents, of course my parents opposed of it. But I thought that one day I could achieve my dreams and worked hard for it… Right now I’m doing what I always wanted to do, so I don’t regret it.”
In the interview, Soomi also revealed that she listens to the Top 100 Charts to keep updated on current hits, that her favorite books are those of mystery and crime, and that recently she has been on a diet and eating salads and an apple each morning. Her usual choice includes chicken, chips and pizza. After declaring that this year is to be 5dolls’ year, Soomi expressed hope for a chicken CF so she can indulge in her favorite food.
Do you think Soomi has found her place as 5dolls’ leader?

5Dolls says “Don’t call us the SM trainees or little Goo Hara” anymore
Girl groups have taken over the music world. Unit group 5dolls were able to win over fans despite their various age ranges. Soomi (22), Chanmi (19), Hyewon (16), Hyoyoung (18), and the youngest Eunkyo (16) are aiming to get a rookie award this year. However, the members are being labeled for their past experiences as Chanmi was once an SM trainee and because Hyewon resembles KARA’s Goo Hara.
They released their digital single “Lip Stains” earlier in February. On March 16th, they dropped their first mini album, “Charming Five Girls” with the title track, “It’s you.” They’re also very active on music programs. They garnered attention for their powerful and talented live stages and for wearing sneakers and not heels and training suits. Leader Soomi explained, “I was a bit surprised to see our stage costumes were like normal training outfits. Now we don’t have to worry about our costumes. High heeled shoes are not the most comfortable to dance in, but they do have their advantages.”
When asked who their role model was, the group said 2NE1. “I want to learn to appear great like 2NE1. Singing and enjoying themselves on stage, the four people are full of charisma and I want to learn to be like that. We’re not experienced enough to be compared to them. But if I had to, it would be 65 [out of 100], being generous?” Hyoyoung said modestly.
5dolls’ members debuted last year in 2010 as a 11-member mixed group, Coed. Their activities stopped after they were subjected to unfounded rumors. In particular, male member Kangho was photographed in a bar underage. In response, Soomi said, “Because they got out, you can’t get rid of a photo. Even now, we feel wrong after seeing his photos online. There’s many people shown in the images, but the management and all of us know better now. We’ll try not to commit this type of mistake again,” she admitted as a leader.
With this the members added, “There have been bad comments said about us due to rumors with no evidence. But we think that all of this is also attention. So we don’t mind if it’s compliments or criticism that is given to us.” And, “We think that no comments are more scary. Giving hate comments is perfectly fine with us. Just getting the netizen’s thoughts is what helps us in our next stage.”
Although receiving hateful comments about their looks and faces, they are saddened by netizens who do not call them by their right names. A collection of names was gathered since their debut as 5dolls. Soomi experienced this before in SeeYa, as Soomi was often called the Nam Gyuri replacement, and even when Coed made their debut. Chanmi is often called the former SM Entertainment trainee, Hyewon “Little Goo Hara,” former Miss Chunhyang Hyoyoung, and red hair girl Eunkyo.
“We leave those names behind us. Former SeeYa member, Little Goo Hara, SM trainee, Miss Chunhyung, red hair girl and don’t want to be called that. We clearly have names.” they said. “Somehow, even joining a new group, it can’t be left behind,” they said revealing their upset feelings.
Their eyes lit up when they were asked about their hopes for the future. 5dolls weren’t able to receive a rookie award with Coed, but have “strong aspirations to take a rookie award home. We have confidence. We’ve had long lives a trainees, and all singer’s dream of this happening over time, and because we can dream a dream, it’s enough to give us hope.”
