Hey this is Johnny. these days, especially this year, we have a lot of new k-pop singers coming out. So I began to wonder who is going to win the Rookie of this year's award.
Yeah, if you chose this year's lookie in K-pop in advance, who would you pick? For
me, I would say, without hesitation, that D-unit is the best new girl group of
this year. D-unit is a girl group consisting of 3 members - leader Ram, Ujin and
Zin. -
I think they were already bringing a little spotlight before their
debut. That's because of each member's background or former career.
Ujin was a former trainee of YG entertainment. If I'm not mistaken,
she was a prospective member of YG's new girl group. But, she thought the
group's concept was a bit different from what she pursues, and even somehow
their debut was delayed. She was the oldest of the team, so she kind of felt
pressure as a leader. For these reasons, she dropped out of YG. Then she
auditioned for the current company and became the last member of D-unit.
Ram is rather well-known as a daughter of 80's famous korean
singer, Jeon YoungRok(전영록), or younger sister of T-ARA's Boram. So she felt kind
of burden even before the debut, because of her family's fame. I guess, she is
very talented. when you listen to D-unit's album, you'd be captured by Ram's
fascinating voice. She's got a great vocals, which I think is unique, and she
can even write songs by herself. Actually she joined 4 song's making In this
album. - Crush, Before the weekend comes(주말이 오기 전에), Oversleeping(늦잠) and
Anniversary(기념일) -
She dances very well too. It's said that she can copy any dances
easily. Overall She's the most talented member and I think She inherited it from
his father.
Zin is sort of a normal member compared to the two. She originally
wanted to be a vocal trainer, but she felt that this career doesn't have an
exact road. so she took the singer route instead of it. What's good is, compared
to other members, she doesn't have much pressure about ppl's expectation or sth
like that.
Surprisingly, as a debut group, they released a full-length album
containing 9 songs in it. Normally new groups come out with a digital single. In
this respect, their first step is very exceptional and we could see their
confidence in music.

This album's title song is "I'm missing you." This is an up-beat
electronic style's song, but has sad lyrics. the whole melody is great, and the
hook is very catchy. I bet 'baby I'm missing you~' this part will be going
through in your head after listening to the song! Furthermore, what captured my
attention was their performance on stage. As I first watched it, I got hooked on
it at first sight. It's just so cool and dope! I was like 'Gosh what is it? So
cool...how can the girl group do this hard style's dance?!' No other k-pop group
dances like that with this up-tempo song!
You know, those moves are pretty much hard especially as women.
They even sings very well. All the 3 members sing well and their vocal colors
are similar, so they mixes well in the songs. but they still have their own
colors as well.
Not to mention, their live is so good too. they can sing like a CD
doing this hard performance on stage.
So overall, D-unit is very talented, well prepared group. they can
sing, dance well. their music style is unique in K-pop field. You must keep your
eyes on D-unit, they'll be a HUGE group!
