Article: Girl group YouU overtakes Sung Soo Jin and gets into the TOP 8

Source: SBS E! via Naver

1. [+968, -108] Vote up if you wanted Sung Soo Jin, vote down if you wanted YouU

2. [+802, -54] I really don't understand... Sung Soo Jin's song was more emotionally touching, or was that just me?

3. [+737, -28] Their performance just made me realize how much of an amazing group 2NE1 is ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Especially CL's part ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+727, -52] I really thought Sung Soo Jin would've made it because she's such a great singer but the group made it in the end ㅡㅡ Am I the only one that doesn't get why

5. [+663, -31] Sung Soo Jin was better but that damn girl group ㅡ.ㅡ and the potential ㅋㅋ They were already out of breath throughout the performance... Even judging on these performances alone, Sung Soo Jin did better

6. [+610, -43] Sung Soo Jin definitely did better... Shouldn't she have made it considering that she was able to do what five girls could not?

7. [+563, -24] YouU seemed a bit out of breath with the dance track

8. [+546, -27] Their potential as a girl group? Honestly, they're short, their bodies are not that great, and their faces are nothing amazing for celebrities. They're not even that great at singing or dancing, I really don't know how they made it into the top 10. Their choice for 'Ugly'.... Eric Nam made it really powerful and emotionally touching but YouU just messed it up. No impact at all.

9. [+483, -16] I like YouU but Sung Soo Jin did better

10. [+445, -18] Park Jin Young needs to be eliminated for choosing YouU who sounded like they were singing with sweet potatoes in their mouths. And stop talking about the damn chords.

Article: First live broadcast 'K-Pop Star 2', nothing special to watch

Source: TV Report via Nate

1. [+216, -3] They should just pick the top 8 all at once, this is just annoying for the viewers

2. [+200, -7] I remember in season one, none of the contestants did that well in the live version other than Lee Michelle but they all did improve towards the end so I expect the same for the second season. However, I can't understand the standards of the judges ㅡㅡ; They drop someone for being too professional, drop someone for being too amateur... What ARE their standards?! I never find myself agreeing with any of their judgements

3. [+181, -8] I know that 'Birth of a Great Star' is not that popular by comparison but if their contestants were on this show, they would put all of the current contestants into the ground.  Everyone sucked live yesterday.

4. [+189, -32] I heard Akdong Musician's lyrics just fine, I think the judges have something wrong with their ears

5. [+171, -18] 'Birth of a Great Star' doesn't have the producing power that 'K-Pop Star' has while 'K-Pop Star' doesn't have the number of talents that 'Birth of a Great Star' has

6. [+161, -10] I don't care anymore. Everything got fu*cked up after YouU and Choi Ye Geun were passed and Akdong and Sung Soo Jin were dropped. This is about as funny as IU being a leading role in a weekend drama.

7. [+134, -11] There was such a huge different in talent between recorded episodes and live ㅋㅋㅋ Akdong, Andrew Choi, Choi Ye Geun, and Sung Soo Jin did decently well enough but the rest of them didn't live up to their skills ㅋㅋ Especially YouU... Even if they had to dance on top of singing, their singing just isn't up to par... Why drop Sung Soo Jin!!!

8. [+131, -10] Akdong was great, but I think they're just being used now. Used them for advertising the show and then just dropped them... Why is it up to them whether they're public friendly or not? That's up to the public to decide

9. [+127, -11] I totally love Akdong Musician but they just used them all for their songs and then dropped them, those crazy f*cks

10. [+122, -7] No harmonization whatsoever in YouU... Why were they given a pass? The kid that came after them that sang the Neyo song was way better.

11. [+125, -17] How could they drop Akdong Musician, their song was great

12. [+100, -1] All the judges call them prodigies, prodigies but they end up sounding off and weird on live broadcast ㅋㅋㅋ
