The gangsta Bae Seul Ki is back

10.15 bae3

Cutesy pop princess Bae Seul Ki, has recently released her second album entitled, “Flying.” Her title song, “Seulgi Say,” is supposed to have a more hip hop beat compared to her previous bubble gum pop. Some may be surprised to see the new gangsta Bae, but her transformation attempt is nothing new as many artists try to reinvent themselves to break out from the shell of conformity with a totally “different” concept. Here we see Bae Seul Gi, who used to dance around in pink and pom poms, in large hoops and cornrows. Do you like the “new and improve” gansta Bae Seul Ki?

    Ugly and awkward.

    I prefer her old image more, but from my perspective, she can pull off this image. A lot of artists are always changing their style and image, so the sudden change isn’t that shocking at all. After all, singers are always evolving and trying to figure out what suits them best and what they like best, so I will still support her. After all, she is one out of the three female celebrities that I like and respect the most :)

    anyone notice the trend in music nowadays? slowly the singers.. are becoming hiphopish.. whether its style or music genre..

    anyways, towards the song.. eh.. *sigh*

    but her look = ^_^

  9. 9 uhuh October 17, 2007 at 10:17 am

    doesnt suit her….
    making me hate her more….

  10. 10 YaHa October 17, 2007 at 10:57 am

    lol… she looks cool, but her voice and the song together are kinda weird XD

  11. 11 iamjg October 17, 2007 at 1:50 pm

    omo omo~ i love her but this image… well i will judge after hearing more of the album.

    oh, like others, yea i noticed it uses “carmen” as it’s melody or whoever they are doing it (remix).

    i admit it’s a bit weird but it is catchy and it sounds better listening rather than watching cause you just go judging the look and dancing.

    nice try but wrong image. completely.

  13. 13 jehni October 17, 2007 at 10:26 pm

    love her! i miss the ‘cute’ image a little, but this
    ‘gansta’ look is ok for me. she did well on her comeback performance! fighting seul gi ♥

  14. 14 guest October 18, 2007 at 1:38 am

    hmmm…. ewwww…..

    the song is terrible.. and she still needs to smoothen the lyrics a bit actually

  15. 15 sam October 18, 2007 at 5:22 am

    suel gi has worked really hard here. give her props for that, but it doesn’t really work for her. the song is too ‘done’ (ie inserting a familiar tune within another song). it would have been nice to hear something different from her for a comeback and headliner song.

  16. 16 marmar October 18, 2007 at 9:38 am

    Gangsta!?!..WTF!?!?
    Yeah right this girl is FAR from ever being gangsta.
    That was just a poor performance of someone being something they are not.
    Now I’m all for reinventing your self and I’m happy she’s not going for the cutesy popish crap that is going on lately and good she’s not doing the sexy thing since we have so many females already doing the sexy thing when they are really not all that sexy, but her going this route just does NOT suite her.

    She should at least went Rocker or something, anything but hip-hop/gangsta. Cause honestly it really does NOT suite her.

    Plus this song was annoying her voice doesn’t suite it…she’s needs to go right back and comeback with a new look. GO REINVENT yourself again!!!

  17. 17 kay October 18, 2007 at 7:36 pm

    HMM. dont think she can pull it off.
    she’s too innocent looking, you know?
    like, you need to exude confidence and attitude?
    but in the photoshoot she’s acting cute?

    but the song’s okay. and the dance’s alright.
    and since she’s already famous, good luck seul ki.

  18. 18 l33yunni October 22, 2007 at 3:36 am

    i agree with some of you guys, she was always a little bit tomboy-ish…thats what i like about Bae seul gi she isn’t too girly and trying to act all cute like other girls but she really is different from others to me.

    Bae Seul gi can really work this look!

    SEUL GI JJANG!

  19. 19 Berz October 24, 2007 at 9:47 am

    Wow honestly I loveeeee this song! Its so beautifully rapped. She’s gorgeous as usual. When you hear the song for the first time it sounds strange to hear her rap. But yet after u hear it again, it gets much better. People here should listen to her new album! Flying! Its really good! After hearing this song I got really attached to her songs. This is usually a first for me because I don’t normally hear a lot from her.

  20. 20 riceeyy December 1, 2007 at 1:12 pm

    mmmhmmmm` so farr, i’ve seen alot of bae Seul gi lovers.
    does she have any haters? she’s alright. but unlike most of you, i actually hated her when I first saw her. it was something about her i really hate. Her songs are okaay.
    Gangster types doesn’t match her well. but whateverr. she can do whatever she wants.

  21. 21 it's not gangster December 6, 2007 at 6:29 am

    I actually really LOVE her new album.
    The look/image isn’t gangster, it’s Hip-Hop.
    She wanted this image before her ‘cutesy-girly-girl’ anyway.
    Anyone recall “Strong Woman”?

    I think this look suits her.
    It’s something different.

    If you actually listen to the ENTIRE album, you’ll see that she does various genres of music.
    It’s not just one style.

  22. 22 olivia December 9, 2007 at 9:47 am

    new and improved my az. It’s not anything different. I think everyone has done it like say…10 years ago much? Her hip-hop style…ehh… it’s fine. but please please please Bae Seul Ki. DO NOT EVER RAP…EVER! her rapping voice is a big no no. and i do recall strong woman…but notice how much beeter that song sounded when she wasn’t rapping.

  23. 23 angela January 2, 2008 at 1:06 pm

    I really prefer this ‘gangster’ style more than the cute and bubbly style.

  24. 24 xkhan February 24, 2008 at 11:09 am

    bae seul gi looks hot!! n i LOVE her moving her hips like that but i have to agree i like songs like “tomboy” much more. =) still pretty though.

  25. 25 Allie February 24, 2008 at 2:59 pm

    bae seul gi is hot. but please, don’t ever try rapping.

  26. 26 Grace April 14, 2008 at 3:56 pm

    I think BSG looks good in any concept. Cutesy or not she’s got her fan’s support! Besides, I like her gangsta song, rather than her poppy songs.

  27. 27 BSGFAN June 1, 2008 at 1:37 pm

    well, i like this new image of hers its closer to her real personality shes actually a tomboy kinda girl so even though the girlygirl look was good for her i like it wen shes using her real personality as an image but of course her realersonality is not the while gangsta type

  28. 28 Tantan September 22, 2008 at 12:27 pm

    the first pic in the video didn’t make any sense.
    She was trying to be cute, but she has a gansta look…
    stick with one please!

    I would agree with some previous comments, her voice is sort of bubblegummy for this song. ^^

  29. 29 oil October 8, 2008 at 2:44 am

    For me really love song!
    I think It suit her so much that half of boy and girl
    feeling . I don`t think it bad.Different kind of song
    make her change style. cool!
    I love her voice too.
    Always support You Seul ki

  30. 30 bre October 25, 2008 at 11:56 am

    I really have no idea why you guys dont like this image. She looks darn hot in some of her photoshoots!! And oh boy this girl can rap!!

    I dont know why Korean fans are saying that she needs to stick to cutesy image. She needs and SHOULD try out different image. I’m fine with her in any image as long as she shows us she’s versatile, in which she is.

    Seulgi is really under-rated just because she is not a BAND!

  31. 31 Jirang November 1, 2008 at 11:34 am

    For me
    I love her that always change image cause I see her
    in image that neve before
    I like her rap style , unique and love her voice
    her personality make me feel relax and smile anytime
    to watch her pix.
    Sarang Seul ki Fighting!

  32. 32 jan November 5, 2008 at 11:58 am
