April has been quite the month for K-Pop comebacks and debuts within the music scene. There are heavy hitters at every corner, constantly battling for the top spot on the charts. But if there's one group who remains a consistent force within the music scene, it's WOOAH. They're a group who's not limited by any means, exceling in a number of different styles showcasing their flexibility as artists.

The five member girl group recently made a comeback after about a year and a half with the single release, 'BLUSH'. Compared to the typical, energetic K-Pop dance track of 'Rollercoaster', 'BLUSH' offers more of an easygoing, laidback listen that you can have on loop for hours on end. It's not the first time woo!ah! has decided to switch things up, fully demonstrating their ability to mold to any genre.

They're a girl group that's shown constant improvement since debut, with the potential to trend even higher as their career moves forward.

 

Talented Since Pre-Debut

The members of WOOAH put in the years and hard work to stand where they are today. Even prior to their official debut and group formation, they were actively posting on their official YouTube channel, portraying their lives as trainees. Through these short videos, fans were able to discover that the members were incredibly talented, equipped with the vocals, rap skills, and dance proficiency needed to stand on stage and perform under the title of 'idol'.

When it was time for the girls to finally make their first appearance on music show stages, they showed a completely different image from what we see today. A mixture of girl crush, hip-hop, and bubblegum K-Pop, WOOAH set out to grab hold of the K-Pop world with their self-titled debut track. This would mark their first step into the music industry and with fiery determination and unwavering conviction, they made a statement early fans could never forget. This laid the foundation of what's to come, and with their array of talents, early wow! were certain that WOOAH would soon embark on an upward trajectory.

 

A Girl Group Of Many Talents

When it comes to individual skill, WOOAH has it in spades. They compliment each other perfectly, however, it's their individual talents that make them such a formidable girl group in the K-Pop industry. And the members aren't afraid to showcase their talent either with either original tracks, cover songs, and dance practice videos. All these, and more, can be seen via their official YouTube channel where WOOAH has multiple examples of their never-ending talent.

When you have a group that utilizes NaNa's impeccable dancing prowess, WooYeon's refreshing vocals, Sora's serotonin-like presence, Lucy's addictive rap skills, and MinSeo's cider-like high notes, you can be certain you'll have a recipe for success. They've shown incredible presence outside of group activities that make them a group netizens should definitely be keeping track of. Their ability to come together, combine their strengths, and present various stages that speak to their high level of execution and skill surprise countless individuals in the K-Pop community, making many believe that it's only a matter of time before they eventually rise to the top.

 

WOOAH Among The Trends

Despite the tough competition among girl groups, WOOAH continue to set their own pace and remain a constant presence within the K-Pop industry. Netizens don't let up on showering the girl group with immense praise, retaining interest towards them since their comeback. Fans have been fervent in offering the girls their unlimited support, advocating for even more people to listen to their comeback. But it's not just limited to 'BLUSH', as any song by WOOAH will certainly pull you in, causing you to become a dedicated supporter.

Now, fans are hoping for more frequent releases in order to showcase the sheer talent the girls have and hopefully keep them trending for a much longer period of time.

Previously in Korean entertainment, there were many individuals who solely focused on one line of work. Whether it was being an idol, acting in K-Dramas, or standing on stage as a musical artist, they poured much of their effort into one particular field. However, now it's more common that these stars branch out, challenging themselves and presenting totally different sides to their supportive fans.

WJSN's Bona is but one of these celebrities who is constantly exploring new ventures. Now, netizens are beginning to know the idol-actress by her birth name: Kim JiYeon. She's stood on multiple stages across various genres over the years, showing the passion and perseverance necessary to succeed.

Bona's journey is anything but ordinary, but she's made the best of it every step of the way.

 

First Steps In The Entertainment Industry

Coming forth, Bona began as a member of WJSN. Their debut with 'MoMoMo' was greatly received, becoming a source of vitamin-like energy for budding UJUNG.

Bona became a shining light that fans loved right from the start. Within such a short time, she mesmerized audiences with her stunning beauty, magical vocals, and radiant stage presence. In spite of WJSN being such a large group, Bona managed to take hold of the spotlight every chance she could, becoming the bias of millions across the globe. Although her career was just starting, a flower road was forming in front of Bona and her groupmates, and they were more than ready to walk along it.

 

Firm Foundation In The Idol Industry

After such a successful start to their career, the pressure was on Bona and the rest of WJSN to continue their upward trajectory. However, the idol actress continuously broke every expectation, and together with her group, they were able to release such memorable chart-topping hits like 'Save Me, Save You', 'As You Wish', and 'Boogie Up'.

With their resounding success, the girl group was able to travel the world, allowing even more individuals to see Bona's talent up close and in their home country. While many hoped to see her live, fancams were able to accurately show the idol's skills and just how much she improved over the years.

With natural allure and captivating aura, Bona joined the subunit, WJSN THE BLACK. A new side was unlocked for the artist, causing fans to go into a frenzy whenever she took the stage. And with their participation in Mnet's "Queendom 2", there was no doubt that Bona possessed a flexibility that allowed her to don on many different hats, showing her strength as an idol member.

 

Passion Of A Rising Actress

But the life as an idol isn't the only place where Bona's story lies. Very early on in her music career, she dabbled in the art of acting. While she was first casted in a guest role for "Chicago Typewriter", the star was able to showcase some of her acting potential through the quirky time travel romance, "The Best Hit".

She portrayed admirable promise, carrying the potential to stand among the greats, as long as continued to try and improve.

Through every character, you could notice Bona making a conscious effort to refine her craft and become an actress fans could be proud of.

These roles helped to lay down the foundation that Bona stands on today. Even just as a rookie actress, she had the grit and resolve to power through long days on set to complete every project with perfection.

 

Leading K-Drama Star

Bona then came across a role that would propel her acting career forever in the spotlight. Playing Go YooRim in the internationally popular "Twenty-Five Twenty-One", the entire world fell in love the idol-actress and completely acknowledged her acting prowess. She masterfully piloted the nostalgic feelings of youth and the competitiveness of a professional athlete. The struggles her character faced and the tough decisions she had to make plucked on everyone's heartstrings, making Go YooRim a second female lead K-Drama enthusiasts could not help but love.

She continued on her hot streak, landing the main female lead role in "Joseon Attorney: A Morality". Wearing a hanbok and caring for her people, she swept audiences off their feet over the course of the series. She was again proved that was she leading lady material and would continue to be so in the future.

And with the recent conclusion of thrilling mystery K-Drama, "Pyramid Game", Bona certainly solidified her status as a top acting star. Acting out her character of Sung SooJi, viewers were left speechless as she challenged the status quo and vowed to get rid of the harrowing "Pyramid Game". With this drama, netizens have gotten to meet Bona as Kim JiYeon, amazed at the fact that she is both an incredible actress and radiant idol.
