Lee Hyori confesses, “I am more glamorous than Son Dambi”

leehyori_090515

Is that so?

Well, the seasoned diva is certainly acting like one.

On the SBS “A night of Entertainment” program on May 13th,  Lee Hyori confessed, “I have a more mature type of beauty whereas Son Dambi is more fresh….but I exude more glamour…”

But she also added:

I don’t understand why men get all shy around me…..I need to change my personality into something softer so that guys will like me more…and also kill my temper so that I am more approachable.

The 30 year old pop diva can start by eating some humble pie.

    sondambi looks awkward and ehh…just strange and fake most of the time.
    hyori’s just down to earth =]

    Hyori is incorrect.
    Nuna Dambi is better,

  6. 12 kis May 16, 2009 at 9:50 pm

    hyori does look hotter.

    Hmm.. I have mixed feelings about Hyori’s comments. Agreed, Hyori has been in the business for a very long time and she has had an immense success in what she’s done so far. The girl can definitely sing and she looks amazing 30 or not. But what she said about herself exuding more glamour than Dambi.. that’s just a little over the top. If the comments were from someone else, there would be no problem whatsoever. But to actually say that you are more glamorous than another artist, esp someone who is fairly new to the entertainment industry, is just unthoughtful and a little mean. And Dambi is glamorous (whether more glamorous or less glamorous than Hyori, everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.) The worse part is the end where Hyori goes on to say how she intimidates other male artists by her sexuality and perhaps she should tone it down and opt for a softer side. That’s just plain big headedness.

      Popseoul Forgot to mention that hyori was playing around.. Dambi recently appeared as a guest on a show that hyori is on and so the interviewer asked hyori who she thought was more sexy. She didn’t just compare herself with a newbie out of the blue like you’re suggesting. And hyori replied in a joking manner hence why laughter from the audience followed her response. Go see the actual video. Popseoul is correct in what she said but wrong in how she said it. Hyori is known to be a jokester.

  9. 21 cuzit May 17, 2009 at 3:16 pm

    At least she doesn’t sit there and trash Dambi or talk about how she’s so much better than other artists!
    She praises them and praise herself in the process! That’s smart!

  10. 22 yume May 17, 2009 at 3:48 pm

    son dambi is really sexy and fantastic boby,,,,hyori in correct……son dambi is very sexy and beatiful………………..SON DAMBI is better

  12. 24 Hannie_Rabu May 18, 2009 at 3:36 am

    Meh. Hyori’s right.
    You guys are all acting like she freaking insulted Son DamBi XD She’s just saying that they’re two different beauties.

  13. 25 yay!!! May 18, 2009 at 2:54 pm

    anyway…..the truth is everyone or the majority can tell that Hyori is wayyyyyy better than Sondambi interm of looks. No female artist in kpop world can measure up

    • 26 Lucy June 7, 2009 at 9:41 am

      yeap…Everyone knows that Hyori is freaking hilarious…she said that for funny intention…and most of people replied that Hyori is better…lol..

  14. 27 bdean2 May 18, 2009 at 3:26 pm

    Frankly, Son Dambi’s face is just meh – hardly a striking beauty.

    HL did not state that her “sexuality” intimidated male artists; she stated that her temper/demanding personality made it hard for guys to approach/get close to her and that it was something she needed to work on – that’s hardly being arrogant.

    Also, Hyori isn’t “plastic” – well, at least not on her face (her chest, otoh…) and she isn’t “slutty” (she’s much more like Beyonce than Britney, wearing revealing outfits on stage b/c it’s show business – but in real life usually dresses in jeans and a T or some other outfit that is “normal”).

  15. 28 Aubrey May 18, 2009 at 6:26 pm

    Popseoul is one of those sites that DOES NOT REPORT THE FACT BUT TWIST the artist words around or PURPOSEDLY leave out IMPORTANT facts to MAKE THEM LOOK BAD. Hyori was clearly joking when she said that statement. Viewers, please don’t rely on just Popseoul’s report alone as a basis for judging Hyori.

  16. 29 xRukiax May 18, 2009 at 9:32 pm

    Well…you cant really tell who is more down-to-earth kinda person. both can be fake or both can be down-to-earth. what you see infront of the camera, is the same as off-camera….

  17. 30 neviey May 19, 2009 at 5:51 am

    Hyori is awesome and the ratings says it all! Hyori’s success says it all too! Dambi won’t even come that close when she hits 30!

  18. 31 anonymous May 19, 2009 at 8:59 pm

    Do you have a life?

  19. 32 ehsna May 20, 2009 at 5:06 pm

    LOL. Hyori is obviously insecure of Son Dambi. And her diva act is SO FREAKING UN-SEXY. Not hot.

    • 33 Lucy June 7, 2009 at 9:45 am

      r you insane??? when you get 30, what will you look like? Hyori is so hot at this age… I don t think Son dam bi is still hot after several years….

  20. 34 Eileen May 25, 2009 at 6:15 am

    hyori is the real f-in queen
    go 2 hell son dam bi!!

  21. 35 jo May 27, 2009 at 11:25 pm

    well of course you are hyori! i cant believe u r even comparing your legendary glamour to that lanky manlike sondambi she is clearly a no match

  22. 36 miira-chaan May 30, 2009 at 3:31 pm

    hyo-ri all the way.!
    since son dam-bi is still kindda fresh..there is room for improvement.1!
    but both are talented though…^^

  23. 37 Feng May 31, 2009 at 7:50 pm

    Man that cracked me up… She doesn’t know why men gets intimidated around her? Geez..

  24. 38 Jae June 4, 2009 at 8:46 pm

    Hyori is way better!

    DamBi OPPA sucks..
    (except for that chair move lol its pretty hot) but other than that Hyori has class and finesse!!

  25. 39 natashabuin June 9, 2009 at 7:19 pm

    Hyori’s high self confidence always be misread as cockiness and arrogant.She just comfortable and confidence with the capability which made her more hotter and sexier.(confidence effects woman’s appearance).
    Dambi is pretty and sexy too but since she still new and young, the sexy and glamourous aura doesn’t reflect her persona as great as it does to Hyori.Hyori said it confidently because she has gone thru what Dambi’s is goin thru right now.Been there and done that!.

  26. 40 angelaa June 20, 2009 at 12:20 pm

    you guys are way too harsh to son dam bi.
    hyori & dambi are both beautiful girls, and they’re both really good people.
    one has more experience in the entertainment business, and the other is fairly new.
    both are gorgeous, and both are great artists.

  27. 41 trigun July 19, 2009 at 6:12 am

    uh no i dont think so…Son dABMI is much hotter

  28. 42 phuong August 7, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    lee hyori is more sexy :D
    & son dam bi thinks
    she all dat ahah :P

  29. 43 Steve August 17, 2009 at 8:04 pm

    SHUT UP IDIOTS~!~!~!!~ Do you even know how big the difference is in popularity over Hyori and Son Dambi is in Korea?? Son Dambi should be licking Hyori toes. Hyori is indeed more glamorous, classy and sexier than Son Dambi. Son Dambi is more of a nice pretty girl type, her dancing and music doesnt turn me on!!! ‘Crazy’ song is sooooooooo stupid.

  30. 44 yie August 23, 2009 at 8:36 pm

    Hyori have it all hot& sexy and pretty while Son dambi only look sexly and pretty
