K-Pop Group the Wonder Girls Cover B.o.B, Bruno Mars’ ‘Nothin’ on You’ Options

[haohao]

Korean sensations the Wonder Girls recently stopped by Billboard.com‘s offices to perform a cover B.o.B. and Bruno Mars‘ ‘Nothin’ on You’ for the site’s Mashup Mondays series. The song was chosen by popular fan vote.
The smash single was chosen by 47 percent of thousands of Wonder Girls fans who voted, beating out Miley Cyrus‘ ‘Party in the U.S.A.’ by just 43 percent. “We just want to express our love to our fans,” says Sunye about the majority vote for ‘Nothin’ on You.’ “It’s a perfect song.”

“The first thing was arranging the instruments,” adds Yeeun. “I started practicing piano and then we added two more guitarists. And later a percussionist joined. And also we were traveling a lot, so we couldn’t stay at one place. We had to practice on the street on the way.”

The Wonder Girls opened for the Jonas Brothers in 2009, and trekked across the country on a headlining tour of their own in 2010. The South Korean pop stars, who have released two US singles — ‘Nobody’ and ’2 Different Tears’ — are set to release their debut American album this year.

It is to my understanding that they never left.

To the wondergirls fans that have never seen them live, I've been to one their concerts and managed to get a spot literally 1 meter away from the stage they were performing. I can assure you that all of them (especially Yoobin) are actually much more attractive in real life then they seem to be on TV (although they are already quite attractive). I was also lucky enough to hold Yoobin and Sun Ye's hands for a few seconds as they reached out to the audience lol.

Actually, im pretty sure they did debut already at the Jonas Brothers' America tour or something. Although I wish for their success, I kind of think it would be best for them to come back to Korea. Currently, I think it will be very difficult for the WG to find success in the US market unfortunately (the market is in my opinion is simply not ready for them).
