Jessica reunited with her pre-debut vocal trainer, Kim JoHan!


Jessica met up with her pre-debut vocal trainer, Kim JoHan once again.
During the recording of JTBC’s ‘Girls’ Generation and Dangerous Boys’ which will be aired on January 29th, Girls’ Generation carried out the outdoor classes prepared for their mentees.
For the sake of her student, Goo JiSoo who aspires to be a singer, Jessica had arranged a meeting with Kim JoHan to conduct a vocal test for JiSoo. As soon as Jessica met Kim JoHan, she gave her teacher a warm hug, showing their close friendship and expressing her pleasure to see him once again. Jessica then introduced Kim JoHan, who was also Taeyeon’s vocal trainer, to JiSoo.
In front of Kim JoHan, JiSoo performed Lee Juk’s ‘I’m So Fortunate’ and received some comments and tips from the talented singer. Judging by JiSoo’s singing ability, Kim JoHan believes that JiSoo has the potential to be a singer.
To determine JiSoo’s vocal range, a vocalization test was conducted. As the test progressed, JiSoo who could not hit the high note stopped abruptly. Jessica then encouraged JiSoo by saying, “Do not stop at this part. At first, I could not do it too but as I practiced continously, I managed to hit the high notes,” sharing her experiences like a senior to a junior artist.
In addition to that, Jessica also showed her firm singing ability and her unique charm by performing the OST of ‘The Little Mermaid’, ‘Part of Your World’ in the presence of JiSoo and Kim JoHan.
Besides Jessica, Sunny had also arranged a meeting with Dynamic Duo for her mentee, Kim SungHwan who wants to be a hip-hop musician. Seohyun, on the other hand, took Kim HoiHoon who has no ambition to a special place for various meaningful outdoor class activities.

During the show, a past article about Seohyun being picked as the member who cares the most about her appearance was brought up.  Taeyeon and Sooyoung explained, “At the time, [We] chose Jessica, but our responses were overshadowed by the louder voices of the other members.  Seohyun was probably chosen because she looks at the mirror the most.”

Seohyun explained, “Sunny unnie looks at the mirror the least [in our group].  I hold the mirror and show it to Sunny unnie.  I’m the one who even tells her that her mascara has spread all over her eyes.”

The boys of the JTBC program, ‘SNSD and the Dangerous Boys‘ successfully put on their first guerrilla concert.
Ahead of their Street Jam Dance Competition scheduled to take place on February 5th, the boys put on a surprise guerrilla concert at an Arts College in Seoul.
Even before the performance began, a large crowd began to gather, waiting to see the boys perform on stage. The throngs of people caused so much commotion in the area the show was actually postponed for some time.
This was the boys’ first official live performance and they seemed to look a bit awkward and nervous, but they impressed the audience with their unexpected talent. They practice 6 hours a day each day to perfect the moves for the Street Jam Dance Competition, and it truly showed.
But instead of all five members, only four stepped forward on stage making the fans curious as to whereHwang Yong Hyun was.
According to a staff member, “All five of them were scheduled to stand on stage together, however, Hwang Yong Hyun had some personal problems and therefore could not be there with them. I know many people must be curious to know why, but we ask that you watch the program this week to find out.”
The next episode airs on January 29th at 7:30PM.
