    People saying this was too "international" and got away from their K-pop roots. Fast forward to 2020 and most songs in K-pop sound very similar to this. Wonder Girls were ahead of their time!

      Right! And they don't realise that this was the point of the song, so it could reach the international market.

      I have to disagree with you.
      If you listen to most of the music that are famous in Korea, they are not autotuned like this.
      Like every 10 min I could hear either "shampoo scent in the flowers", "Gaho - Start" (from Itaewon class) or "IU - Eight" when I was walking on the street in Korea.

      @@happydepressed9210 especially in terms of the kpop scene. Kpop in 2012 wasn't like this at all and groups like Wonder Girls and Girls Generation paved the way for big Kpop Groups like BlackPink to have international sucess. I mean even to the fact that the words are sung in English much how Ice Cream by Black Pink is sung in English too.

      TY21 Entertainment it wasn’t really well promoted and there were a lot of popular artists that made comebacks so it overshadowed them. JYP and YG should’ve just forgot about American debut and focused on the asian market. They tried so hard to get WG and 2NE1 into America but they weren’t having it.

      You are right. Even though it hurts seeing groups that you like so much disband, we have to understand that its just the natural thing to happen. Nothing lasts forever, music groups are no exception. People and their priorities/goals change. Its natural to feel sad about it, but all we can do is enjoy their music and wish for them the best in their lives.

    Wonder Girls sacrificed their high peak in Korea to promote in US and didn't get what they expected. I remember feeling so sad about them, leaving SNSD without their strongest competitor at that time. Turns out Kpop should stay as Kpop. It might shine internationally but should keep the basic 'Kpop' music in since international fans love kpop as the way it is.

      @Serpil Orhan Idriz nope in 07/08 it was wonder girls they where more dominatant then SNSD at the time, irony and tell me out sold and outperformed Into the new world and Girls generation by a mile, back then it was called WonSoKa standing for Wonder Girls, SNSD and Kara, with wonder girls being the biggest selling girl group there numbers where on par with Boy groups, they where considered Big Bangs biggest rival not even Super junior, SS501 or TVXQ could compete with Big Bang and Wonder Girls at that time and they where the next biggest selling boy groups, sad to see that JYP let that go for american fame and fortune. But what came after this american adventure was the biggest selling Girl Band in kpop history. Litterally a band concept for a dance orientated group is probably something we will never see again. After 2009 was when 2ne1 T-Ara and sistar took the competition into there own hands and competed with snsd for top spot

    Wonder Girls'career in America always reminds me of Jackie Chan when he talked about suceeding in America. In an interview, he said that you shouldn't force yourself to enter a big market that isn't ready for you, such as America. Instead, you should suceed in your own and wait for America to call you. Anyway, I still like Wonder Girls' english music and it was still a valuable experience to them :)

    I always feel sad looking at wonder girls. when they were at their peak in korea they left to promote in the US but wasn't successful, and their popularity wasn't the same in korea when they came back, that was a bad move from jyp it wasn't worth it.. he expected a lot and sacrificed their popularity in korea! at least he could've balanced it! to be honest I am afraid this will happen with bts,, especially that they don't go on tv or variety shows to maintain their popularity in korea..

      This is not the first time that G-Dragon has been accused of plagiarism. In 2009, there were claims that G-Dragon's song "Heartbreaker," was plagiarized from Flo Rida's "Right Round." EMI who has the rights to the song "Right Round," announced that they saw no similarities between the two songs. However, Sony Korea prevented G-Dragon from further promoting the song without paying reparations. They also sent a letter of warning about plagiarism, although not a legal action.

And the composer of ‘Right Round’ in America is in the dilemma of what to do and how to deal this case.”
