Pop or flop? Bada desperately needs a makeover

Popflop-bada

Popstar, Bada has crossed over to the “normal” side with this cute black strapless dress, but the granny heels and more importantly, the ajuma perm signals that she still desperately needs a make over.

However, she can make the excuse that this outfit is for the Andrew Lloyd Weber’s musical production of “Tell me on a Sunday”, which will run from October 1st to November 18th, 2007 at Doosan Art Center, Seoul.

Pop or flop: Bada needs a makeover1) Hell yes, get that woman to a stylist asap
2) Hell no, she’s perfect just the way she is

    disastrous.

    wow~ the dress is cute. but… yeah. i’m not too sure about he hair and shoes. i think Bada’s a great singer, i just wish she’d change her style right now… o_O

  6. 6 Ally September 12, 2007 at 10:33 am

    can she actually look at herself and say, “hey I look good”?

  7. 7 Nikki September 12, 2007 at 10:39 am

    Her hair looks better now then when she first got it

  8. 8 Mizaki September 12, 2007 at 10:46 am

    This looks great.

    Yay for a Korean woman not looking just like all the other ones and wearing hand/trashbags!

  9. 9 daneil September 12, 2007 at 10:52 am

    I thought she looked fine until I saw the shoes. She is kinda old, the hair suits her age. I love the dress on her.

    the shoes is something my grandmother would wear.

  12. 12 chrinstina September 12, 2007 at 11:33 am

    i love the dress and im used to her hair but the shoes is a NO NO.

  13. 13 joyce September 12, 2007 at 12:06 pm

    the dress looks really nice but the shoes….

  14. 14 girl above me September 12, 2007 at 12:33 pm

    i was gonna say the same thing. dress looks ok but the shoes got to go. i wonder if her hair is a wig… if it is.. then she needs to take it off cuz hair does a lot to the face!

  15. 15 kimchiforme September 12, 2007 at 12:54 pm

    she’s beautiful and has REAL talent unlike those wannabe hoochies *ahem* lee hyori

  16. 16 esther September 12, 2007 at 1:11 pm

    love the dress.
    hate the shoes.
    the hair can either stay or go, its not that big of a deal to me.

  17. 17 Haterette September 12, 2007 at 1:22 pm

    Good grief.

    Is she starting her adjuma midlife crisis a few years early?

    The dress - it looks like a black version of a potato sack on her frame. It actually overpowers her a bit.

    It’s nice but unless she’s in character for a role where the character has shiteous clothing, she could have made a better choice.

    This is the little black dress you wear to a cocktail party. It’s not the little black dress that you wear onstage if you’re a pop star.

    It’s tragic in this context.

    The hair - good lord, it’s a nightmare.

    The shoes – you don’t wear clunky big shoes like that with a cocktail dress. Also, they’re clunky and heinous. Were they bought at the dungeon of fug?

    All around, she needs some help and her stylist needs to go back to fashion school…stat.

    did she get those shoes from a viking??

  19. 19 YooYoo September 12, 2007 at 1:42 pm

    dress looks fine! shoes…..yikes!

  20. 20 Chuseok September 12, 2007 at 1:51 pm

    I know this Blog is all in fun, but the negativism exhibited by Popseoul is getting tiresome.

    Popseoul’s never ending criticism of so many celbrities is similar to people criticising Britney Spears and saying she is fat. Enough already.

    How about some movie reviews? Music reviews? Or other cultural news? Or maybe its easier to troll the internet for a photo and then criticize? You could be like Perez Hilton except he has a white magic marker to criticize people.

  21. 21 Eve September 12, 2007 at 1:52 pm

    i tink she looks pretty good…except for the shoes…bada’s talent will always outshine her looks.

  22. 22 popseoul September 12, 2007 at 2:10 pm

    Chuseok- thanks for the feedback. There are plenty of other sites to go to for the type of news you seek.

  23. 23 han September 12, 2007 at 2:16 pm

    mike’s right
    she does look like celine dion…O.o

    and she looks like she’s aged 10 years….well at least she’s talented..

  24. 24 nurkeyandie September 12, 2007 at 2:29 pm

    i agree with most everyone’s opinion: everything looked fine til i saw the shoes.

  25. 25 fun September 12, 2007 at 7:59 pm

    At least Bada is talented.
    I prefer to watch someone with “bad” outfit and who can sing live that someone who only knows how to shake her booty and do lipsynch aka Hyori and cie ^^ !
    Overall the dress is cute and suits her.

  26. 26 Nanda September 12, 2007 at 8:33 pm

    Bada’s so talented but this look must go. What ugly shoes, but i loved the dress

    PS. Popseoul good answer ^^

  27. 27 Aya September 12, 2007 at 9:49 pm

    I like popseoul blog alot. Its funny and most of it I agree with, and it keeps me ‘in the know’ How else would I have heard dragon wars?

  28. 28 When politics meet fashion... September 12, 2007 at 10:41 pm

    The main photo….she looks constipated…

  29. 29 ed September 12, 2007 at 10:47 pm

    agree whole heartedly with fun.
    bada’s not hipper than your grandma, but this time she’s not a total disaster either.

  30. 30 Blahblahbon September 12, 2007 at 11:55 pm

    The dress is the only thing i can stand.

  31. 31 studentgirl September 13, 2007 at 2:02 am

    I think Bada looks pop~^^
    The hair is so luxury vintage, she pulls it off well.
    The dress is cute- I love the black silk type ribbon detail.
    The shoes are her 80’s “Queen” shoes, I don’t think any ‘granny’ would wear shoes that high.
    Thanks for the pictures- I love the 2nd one, it captures Bada’s passion for performing perfectly~

  32. 32 haj September 13, 2007 at 5:57 am

    i hate the look, but just bc its bada, she shouldnt change it

  33. 33 Kai September 13, 2007 at 10:47 am

    what’s wrong with her!!! i want her long and pretty hair back…
    the shoes are… no comments

    love her voice and personality, she’s awesome!!!!

  34. 34 Roxy Bathory September 13, 2007 at 5:00 pm

    I guess she should change her shoes and stick to a stiletto pair instead. Ajumma perm is forgivable with a tube babydoll dress, but she should accessorize herself more with gems or golds, metallic make-up and a little slicker hair (e.g. put some gel or hairwax to make the hair stay put and not flared up!).

    Those pair of shoes she is wearing is such a DISASTER!

  35. 35 Carmela September 13, 2007 at 10:17 pm

    I like the dress….. So cuuuuute!!!!!

    But when I saw the shoes….. Hahaha!!!!! LOL

    It’s like a gladiator style….. Hahaha!!!!! LOL

    But I love her voice….. She is so talented…..

    But she really needs stylists to the rescue…..

  36. 36 Z September 17, 2007 at 8:00 am

    I think she looks okay with the hair but the shoes are absolutely horrible!!

  37. 37 johnbilly January 20, 2008 at 10:41 am

    Bada you look great in your new hairstyles.I support you 100%

  38. 38 wtf !?! February 24, 2008 at 5:31 pm

    bada her back than is soo different she does look like an ajumma sadly she was my idol and now its fading away

  39. 39 The KIM March 24, 2008 at 9:02 am
