Lee Yeon-hee sings for Super Junior
Well, I suppose it isn’t totally out of line, considering that Lee Yeon-hee, who is managed by SM Entertainment, was almost in Girls Generation back in her training days. But I admit I tire of singers crossing over as actors with mediocre acting skills, as well as the reverse, actors crossing over into kpop with middling singing talent.
In any case, the East of Eden actress will feature her vocals on Super Junior’s upcoming third album, having lent her voice to the song “Club No. 1.” The album is also drawing notice for featuring DBSK’s U-know Yunho and Micky Yoochun, who will rap on the song “이별… 넌 쉽니 (Heartquake).” (What, with 13 members — or is it 14 now? — is Suju finding it difficult to fill out their songs with their own talent?)
Super Junior will kick off their comeback with an appearance on KBS’s Music Bank on March 13.

Meh. I used to like Lee Yeon Hee. Then I watched East of Eden.
“What, with 13 members — or is it 14 now? — is Suju finding it difficult to fill out their songs with their own talent?”
I was thinking the same thing. That’s just way too many people. It’s bad enough that not all of them might get a part in the song but add two more people…?
Well, I’m still anticipating their comeback.
i used to like super junior when they were newbies. then i got too much of them. i think they’re sick of it too, sadly.
Lee Yeon Hee’s singing is pretty good considering she’s an actress and not a singer. She did an opening performance for the MBC awards this year and it was really good. I think that people shouldn’t judge til they actually hear her sing. I seriously can’t wait to hear her sing!
I haven’t hear about Lee Yeon Hee for a while. It’s good to hear that she’s helping out her SM family. I personally don’t think Lee Yeon Hee is bad at singing. She’s actually pretty decent compared to some other singers in the singing business. I can’t for the track to be released! Lee Yeon Hee and Super Junior HWAITING!
she was in that movie “my love” ? or something like that
i really liked her in that movie
she was adorable with short hair
Is she finally moving on from her horrible acting? (prays)
To fizzle: LOL, I used to like LYH but then I saw her acting. After that I didn’t like her so much.
Isn;t she just narrating? ohhhhhh is she really gonna sing??
meheheh, 14 members XD
Now… thankfully she is female… because if she happened to be a male and participated, I really dont want to see the “Only 13″ thing again (even though I secretly agreed with only 13 members and no more >.> still…. too much things going on -_-)
speaking of 13, I just killed the 13th stinkin’ fly -_____- Why does this area have so many fly’s >:|
I love LYH! I don’t know what people are saying. I liked her until I saw her acting? She was always an actress!!! Her role in EOE different than her other roles but I still loved it. People really do have problems. If you can’t do any better then don’t talk.
Yea! LYH is singing with Super Junior? That’s so cool. Lee Yeon Hee hasn’t been doing anything with her fellow SMers for a while. It’s good to hear they are still good friends and working with each other. I’ve always liked LYH. She’s always been the girl next door type of girl. And I can’t wait to hear her sing. Hopefully she’ll get to shine on the track.
@#9 Love: please dont say that TT_________TT
As viewers, we have a right to express our opinions whether we like it or not TT___TT
If you heard a song and didn’t like the way that person sang, does that mean you can’t say you dont like that singer’s singing? If you did say you didnt like it, it doesnt mean you have problems, but weren’t you just saying how you felt? Of-course, it doesnt either mean you hate that person either… just dont agree with that person’s talent.
It’s not about being able to do something better (I mean, you have movie critics etc who aren’t actors or never directed a film, etc XD) but it’s about sharing with others and expressing one’s opinion ^__________________^
I think that saying people who mentioned about her acting have problems was a bit mean TT_____TT
Some people might have seen her from cms and photoshoots and liked her, like for me, but when I saw her act.. for an actress I didn’t find her that great, and I just simply didn’t think highly of her as much as I did before
ehh.. i feel like javabeans just dissed suju … T_T
but… whatever… its javabean’s opinion…
just glad that the sm family is supporting each other …
btw… i think the SM Company choices to add collaborations to the album…. right?
fizzle: “Meh. I used to like Lee Yeon Hee. Then I watched East of Eden.”
THIS.
I’ve always like Lee Yeon Hee. Before and after I saw her dramas.
Lee Yeon Hee is just an all round likeable girl. I can never ever dislike her.
I give LYH props for continuing her role as YR on EOE despite criticisms and such from viewers. LYH isn’t afraid to take on roles whether they are likeable or annoying and immature as some other actors and actresses may be afraid to take on such roles.I must say I think highly of LYH more now than before.
Looking forward to hearing Lee Yeon Hee and U-Know on SJ’s album!
Love EOE! So sad it’s coming to an end!
Good thing we get to hear LYH featured on a track on SJ’s new album.
I have a feeling it’s going to be a great track with LYH on it.
And we’re also going to get to hear U-Know rap!
Hope the album doesn’t disappoint.
@Biscuit
Whenever you see someone in magazines or photo shoots, you automatically think highly of them? And now that you have seen her act you don’t think highly of a person as you did before? That’s really nice of you to say that.
So this time around the boys will get how many second per person. If Gee is 7 sec per member how bout SJ.
I never watched LYH movie or drama nor intend to watch it But just heard that she supposed to debut in SNSD. but dont’ so maybe it good. iono
@#16: ah. I didn’t mean it that way.
I think “highly” was a completely wrong word to use, and since I’m not great in English I often use the wrong terms to express my opionions TT_____TT sorry. and I dont automatically think highly of people… but if what I said gave that meaning..I’m sorry for that too >_____.>) so I apologize for saying anything mean or offensive.
Isn’t it a celebrity who would lend their vocal to an unknown/new vocal grup, so the group could be heard & known by listener/viewer (like YEH for Mighty Mouth, or LJK for Sori). But Suju did the reverse. So why did they do that for, they’re famous enough without have to invite another famous singer/actor ? Isn’t it a new strategy from SM entertainment to compete with DBSK & Big Bangs ?
Apart from that, I think Yunho & Micky are credible to be a guest singer in Suju’s album since they’re real singer, but I don’t feel the same with LYH. I’ve heard her voice at the opening of MBC awards last year, & frankly her voice not that so special (just decent). Her voice seems fit as singer in vocal group, but as a soloist…I don’t think so. It isn’t that strong enough…I think, I feel the same as Javabeans, having tire of singers crossing over as actors with mediocre acting skills, as well as the reverse, actors crossing over into kpop with middling singing talent
This is not surprising at all. Lee Yeon Hee and SuJu go way back, having done various videos (i.e. Timeless) opposite Han Geng and Si Won. She seems good friends with them, and this seems like a club track.
LYH’s kinda nearing “Leave Britney Alone” status for me. Sure, Lee Yeon Hee’s been cast opposite Song Seung Heon, Park Yong Ha, So Ji Sup (grrr!!!!), Hyun Bin, Gong Yoo, Kang Dong Wan, Yoo Ji Tae, Jung Il Woo, Jesus, Buddha and Mohammed before she could legally drink. Sure, she’s been the focal point of various EofE conspiracy theories (BTW kids, EofE is ending this week! Will Dong Chul and beat the crap out of his emo fake bro “Shin” Dong Wook? Will Shin Tae Hwan make it out of the show alive? Will we see Rebecca ever again? Will Dead Mike show up at Dong Chul/Grace’s wedding? How many licks does it take to get the center of a tootsie pop? Tune in for the final — MBC promises!! — week of Al Este Del Eden)
All the same, she is still 21 years old and she’s taken enough lumps for EoE, when she wasn’t originally projected to be the lead.
“But I admit I tire of singers crossing over as actors with mediocre acting skills, as well as the reverse, actors crossing over into kpop with middling singing talent.”
That’s what makes Koo Hye Sun so scary. Exhaustion? Accident? Stitches in the mouth? CONCUSSION? Ain’t no thang girlfriend!!

“What, with 13 members — or is it 14 now? — is Suju finding it difficult to fill out their songs with their own talent?”
definitely agree with you!
i love you for that second to last sentence (:
Harsh? Nah.
I guess I can understand Lee Yeon Hee being featured because she’s a girl, but DBSK? I thought Suju had rappers.
“But I admit I tire of singers crossing over as actors with mediocre acting skills,..”
i do also hate actor/ress trying to sing when they have mediocre voice but i like it if they really have the talent. and LYH, she do have a very sweet voice. when i heard she’s going to sing i tend to accept her like YEH ang GHS (they were a singer).
LYH fighting!
to fizzle:
My first impression of LYH was on EOE LOL
Omg…you actually have suju fans as readers? I pity you
But, seriously, it’s a bit too ridiculous to have a million members and still feature other people. that should be illegal.
it’s an obvious PR move but I do like her so it isn’t the end of the world.
still, you got to credit sm for their brilliant marketing.
oh, i love her voice!! i’ve been hoping she would sing with someone (but not necessarily be a singer) and its come true!!! yay!! wait until my friends heard this news, they would be overjoyed too!!
Is this the girl playing Millionaire’s First Love with Hyun Bin? She was so pretty in MFL, but with long hair she looks even prettier. And she can sing? I’m impressed. *going to check her singing*
haha @ belleza’s comment
yeah, this girl has been paired up with lot of hotties! and she’s only 21? she’s pretty, can sing and quite good at acting (not the best but still convincing enough to make most viewers love her more than the lead actress (and kick her out) ).. man, im jealous!
and yeah, its not surprising she’s going to sing with Suju. she appeared in their MV for quite of times. they are good friends. plus they’re under the same company and she definitely have good voice. so why not?
@aloneinthedark
“Isn’t it a new strategy from SM entertainment to compete with DBSK & Big Bangs ?”
ehemm.. dont u know DBSK and Suju are in the same company? DBSK is also under SM Entertainment…
no:30, is she that lovable until she can kick anyone? bad taste.
Anyway, good for her that recognition that that “way”. Wonder how long her future career can last. She cannot hide behind famous people all the time.
Wasn’t she the actress opposite Hyun Bin in A millionaire’s first love? Cos I loved that movie and I liked her acting. I haven’t watched EoE so I can’t say anything about it or her acting in it. I also haven’t heard her singing. We’ll see how that turns out.
Personally, if someone can do more than one thing -and it do well- I don’t see the problem. Thing is, most of those who crossover over don’t have the talents though I’m not questioning their efforts.
@ Sere
agree. i have no problem with someone who do more than one thing IF they do it well.. i have heard her singing, she do have a good voice. lets just see how it turns out. =)
if supermodels can sing, then why cant actresses sing…and i have heard lyh sing – its pretty decent. moreover its not like all the singers we have today are talented. she hasn’t proved she s the best actress yet but i find her acting in eoe quite good. btw i think she was and is going to be in this industry for a long time without having to kick anyone out. actually i have begun to admire her courage becoz of the way she has handled herself despite being targeted & blamed for ldh’s departure. i just hope that she stays strong and not take any of the vile comments personally.
I didn’t say Lee Yeon-hee sucked, but the comparison to the supermodel isn’t exactly apt, since that supermodel songwrites and plays her own instruments as well. Different class altogether.
emm.. which supermodel are u guys talking about?..
but anyway i think LYH really have good voice. as for she can handle high pitch and all that stuff i still dont know…. but it kinda excites me to see how it turns out. the first time i knew her was in a sad MV with siwon and hankyung and she was so pretty in there. knowing that they’ll sing together just makes me excited.
@Fed ex
I totally agree with you!
I think LYH is going to kick butt on the track!
Hold your judgment til you hear her!
And yay U-Know is going to be on the album too! XD
@32
Just because she gets to act with a lot of male hotties it does not mean that she’s hiding behind them. Obviously if those males “hotties” and actors are making movies with her, doesn’t it mean they feel like she’s good enough to act side by side with them? So what you’re trying to say is that you want her to act alongside ugly people? I’m sorry but does that make sense?
so, hopefully after this, we can see she build her career with her so called talent alone. Anyway, how long is she in this ent business?
Sorry this girl cannot act….I stopped watching EOE partly because of her.
im sure shes not that bad of a singer i wont judge her until i actually hear her sing, and im sure SUPER JUNIOR will do great, there the best, or maybe im just being bias. either way SuJu Fwiting!
i think she should just model.
LYH is the only reason why I watched EOE.
She made the show more fun to watch, that’s for sure.
LYH singing on SJ’s is going to be great! I know it’s going to surprise everyone.
Can’t wait til the album hits store shelves so I can hear LYH sing ^^
“yeah, this girl has been paired up with lot of hotties! and she’s only 21? ”
I think being on SM Entertainment had a lot to do with it. They don’t have many actors, and I think she may had the longest relationship with the agency. Go Ara, also on SM Entertainment, also has had an accelerated career, playing lead pretty much since her debut. Yoona’s (who has talent as an actress) transitioning into lead/support lead status as well.
cant wait to see how it turns out, i think she has sweet voice. i’ll definitely buy that album, espclly when yunho is in it!!
This girl is one of the prettiest Koreans I’ve seen.
She looks like someone that you want to be friends with. Definitely of the more conservative actresses out there. But I hope she starts dressing out of her comfort zone and just experience more with fashion.
Hearing that she is going to sing on Super Junior’s album is making me excited!
I’ve seen her MBC opening performance and she has such a sweet voice. I want to see what kind of tone she’ll bring to the track. I just know that the track is going to be hot.
I really want to hear this Club No.1 track!
When is Super Junior releasing their new album?
i agree with post #1. i’m not a big fan of LYH or SuJu, it is funny how many members SuJu has, 13, do they really need that many? at least one of them could have a lady’s voice so they wouldn’t need LYH, also when i listen to music and sometimes i think the singer might be a girl and turns out to be a guy and the other way around too. haha.
“it is funny how many members SuJu has, 13, do they really need that many?”
They’re one ole dirty bastard from being the Wu Tang Clan of K-pop. Super Junior ain’t nuthing to mess wit!!
Ok I freaking love Super Junior can’t deny it
But I like the subgroups more…haha.
Also, someone up there said that SM was trying to compete with DBSK? Um, DBSK is on SM? LOL!
I think people are taking this news too seriously. I bet her “featuring” will be a voice over/narration or something. What I don’t understand is why SJ even needs any guest vocals in their songs. Wouldn’t that give its members even less lines to sing?
The news says she’s showing her 노래 실력, so yes she is singing, not narrating.
aha! i love this girl and i love suju and i even love DBSK more!! tripple times the excitement. anyway she’s pretty there.
I hate this girl. She sucks so much. I hope she doesn’t have any future to look forward to in the media. She’s an ugly . . . ugly . . . talentless girl!
I love LYH. I think she is a talented and beautiful actress. She will be in the entertainment industry for a long time. I like all her movies and dramas and now I can’t wait to heard her sing in Club No. 1 with SJ. LYH Fighting!!!
@55
try looking in the mirror if you haven’t been recently. You’ll be amazed at how you look like after you snap out of you fantasy land. And I’m pretty sure it isn’t a good site. If you like to talk than you better be able to take what people say about you.
LYH is going to be in industry for a long time so get used to it. Everyone loves her that’s why she’s getting asked to be in movies, dramas and now singing on a SJ track. LYH Hwaiting and Fighting!
I admit I don’t like LYH that much but singing?
Hopefully the song is REALLY REALLY long because Suju members need more singing time. LOL jk
After singing she should go back to practicing on her acting because God knows that she really needs it.
^
yeah~
bal yeon hee should really go practice acting.
the netizens nicknamed her bal yeon hee and i think it fits her perfectly. haha
LYH is going to do an amazing job as she always does. She’s going to shut everyone up and surprise everyone. LYH Fighting!
No matter what people say, I can never dislike LYH. There’s just something about LYH that makes you want to root for her. LYH Fighting!
Hopefully she sings better than she acts.
lol, the only day she surprised me was when I saw her acting. Her acting is really atrocious . . . her face isn’t that great either . . . at least she didn’t get surgery? Wait! Did she get surgery? Whatever.
I can’t wait til the album drops. LYH will definitely deliver or else they wouldn’t feature her on the album.
This is girl is really pretty. I’ve never seen her look bad. She looks cute with short hair and she looks like a pretty doll with long hair. Her singing is really sweet. I think she will do a really good job singing with Super Junior. When is the album coming out? I really want to buy it.
They are just probably doing this because lyh is not doing anything.
her drama just finished (though nobody cares) and does she even have any cf things?
another thing is that she is cheap, that’s why she is still wanted.
@WHY
Why are you still here?
Is anybody wanting you lately? Probably not. Maybe because you are cheap or is it just because someone like you go around and do sh*t or likes to talk trash.
So basically anyone that is offered roles or is seen everywhere is cheap? Get real. The reason why she is wanted is because she everyone likes her. I dunno but it sounds like you really hate LYH and I think you should stop while you’re ahead because some people can probably say some nasty things about you without even seeing your face.
Uh, #69 I think you misunderstood. I’m not jumping into the fight here, but I believe that comment means that Lee Yeon-hee is still inexpensive to hire because she is young and new, and her low asking fee combined with her popularity gets her hired a lot.
I’ve been waiting for her latest movie to come out so I guess I care. Some people in here can come off as someone that’s hateful, annoying and especially doesn’t have a life. Sorry to be mean but I’m pretty sure you can handle it right? If not then shut the effen up! What you gotta be in here spreading your nasty opinions more than once? Seriously you people are the ones that are tasteless and cheap.
The way she phrased did seem like she was talking about a one night hooker and I just had to say something about it.
She going to be making plenty of money in the years to come. I don’t see her popularity going down anytime soon. LYH is HOT right now. People are really smart to hire her now while her asking fee is still low.
About her singing on Super Junior’s album it proves that she’s not going anywhere and she’s close to her SM family. It’s good to know to there’s going to be a SJ and LYH collaboration coming our way. I miss the LYH,Choi Siwong and Hankyung making those tear-jerking MVs! Hopefully they make an MV for the track. Yay! Can’t wait for the album to come out.^^
ok, NEXT!
this girl really is gaining her popularity in this coming years. and she’s one beautiful talented girl. i think we’ll surely sees her more in the futurer
Is she going to sing? she really do have talent in singing when i heard her singing in her movie. and she do have good voice.
yes, i do also hate when actor/ress trying to sing BUT only when they couldn’t do it right. u know, like this “I love rock and roll”. it sucks, really. all the netizens criticized her. and she covered her bad song with being almost naked. how cheap is that?? thank goodness she stopped now.
^ ahaha.. i agree!
that one sure is sux… and her furry butt.. i still remember that!
I hear the song and it’s HOT!
Go to youtube and listen to it!
That’s really interesting to read you guy comment!
And the winner go to LYH’s fan!
“What, with 13 members — or is it 14 now?”
what u mean??
suju only 13!! and always 13!!
