WONDER GIRLS

One very popular song at the moment is "Nobody" sung by the South Korean girl group, Wonder Girls.  The 5 girls are Sunye, Ye-eun, Sohee,Yubin and Hye-rim.  I actually heard the Korean version at the end of last year when I watched two of them appear in an episode of "They Got Married" with Kim Hyun-Jung.  The girls have now come up with an English version of the song as well.  Though the song may appear to be simple, it is very catchy and is a happy song.  Each time I listen to it I feel uplifted and in a pleasant mood. 

Here is some info on the group:
Each of the five original members were selected through auditions. Debuting in early 2007, they became popular in the fall of that year with the song "Tell Me." They have scored three consecutive #1 hit singles: "Tell Me", "So Hot", and "Nobody".  The latest on the girls is tht they have even managed to penetrate the American market with the lead single "Nobody"; the single became the first song by a Korean group to enter the Billboard Hot 100.
