No, Lee Jin Ah is not mainstream and probably won't appeal to the teenage crowds who are obsessed with kpop groups that will probably never have a song this meaningful and well-written/composed. But what Lee Jin Ah is, is talented and talent beats everything in the end. She may not be the best singer out there but she has a voice and style that is so captivating and hypnotic that most can't help but to love her. She loves her music and you can clearly see that. She treats her music as her precious treasures and that's what makes her good. The judges even said though themselves she carries each note with so much care and meaningfulness that it hits you in all the right places. I hope Lee Jin Ah is someone who will continue to make beautiful music like this. I will be on the lookout!
I love how she sneaks her jazz influences in the arrangement, but still keeps it catchy enough to be a pop song. Jazz is so diverse but she uses it so well to set the mood, it's just lovely.
Season 1 highlights were the powerful vocals. Season 2 was marked by strong ''self colors''.Season 3 was back with vocals with natural high notes, emotion and technique. But Lee Jin Ah and the hole first ranking group have proved that Season 4 will be made of Sincerity... The singer with most sincerity will win this season.
well, sincerity will always be one of the most, if not the most important criteria used on k-pop across the seasons. the moment someone with strong vocal tried to fake it without heart, they got forgotten fast regardless of what season they were in. season 4 happens to feel that way because it has the most # of strong vocals, and thus many incidents of "insincere" tech-driven good vocals and the ensuing criticisms by the judges. so for each season, everything you mentioned matters, but the contestant roster also plays a really big role as explained above. any case, it really is a pleasure to watch… my favorite Sunday past time!
***** I dont speak korean but i think its about being abandoned or something along those lines and they are waiting for them to return even though it hurts and how stupid they are acting. It's what the heart wants. Although i could be totally be off.
Taeyeonni She said she wrote this song after watching a movie about a dog waiting for his/her master who had passed away, raining or snowing, for three(?) years at a bus stop near home. She said that she would wait rather than forget because it is the way she would like more. I'll provide an unofficial and poor translation of the song. The way as I like (LEE Jin Ah) You'll be never coming back and I know it is the fact that cannot be changed. (0:27 - 0:41) But I am missing you, it is a little bit sad, though. ( 0:45 - 0:59) I can't move forward and I can't do anything else. (1:00 - 1:10) Where are you now and what are you thinking? (1:11 - 1:19) Do you ever know my foolish mind? (1:19 - 1:25) I'll be waiting and I don't care if it does not change anything. (1:45 - 2:01) Coldness may come and go but I'll keep waiting for you. (2:02 - 2:10) My friends tell me to stop but I am longing for you. (2:10 - 2:17) Freshness may talk to me but I would not change. (2:18 - 2: 26) You, only you can make me smile. (2:27 - 2:35) I guess you may know my foolish mind. (2:38 - 2:46) HAVE FUN
There are a lot of people who don't understand why the judges are hyping her up so much but I think there's a different sort of appreciation you can have for her music if you play an instrument/are a musician. She does a lot of really cool things musically (i.e. her jazz influences) and honestly, her voice is nice and calming but it pales in comparison to her musical talent (in composing and in playing). I also just die when I see her skill on the piano; she plays it so naturally it's like it's as easy as breathing for her.
우리나라 사람들이 워낙 발라드와 가창력 위주의 호소력 짙은 곡을 선호해서 이런 재즈풍의 음악에는 반감을 가지고 있는게 보인다. 박진영이랑 유희열이 왜 극찬을 했는지는 보컬보단 곡 전개를 보면 조금 이해할수 있지 않나 싶다. 얼마나 한음 한음을 악보에 적어 나갈때 고심하고 생각했는지 그대로 느껴진다.
note: she said in the show that this song is based on a movie about the dog waiting for its dead owner. translation (closest, but not perfect): "You will not return," I know it's an unchangeable truth. I miss you. I am sad, but I can't do anything about it. My heart gravitates toward you, it won't move away. Where are you, what are you thinking? I wonder if you know of my foolish heart? I will wait, despite the unchangeable, I don't care. Even if the coldness comes, I always wait for you. Even if my friends tells me to stop, I always look for you. Even when the new talks to me I don't change in the end. Only you, only you, makes me smile at the end. Wonder if you know of my foolish heart?
yes it was written based on the movie but it is actually about avoiding pain of losing loved one...waiting for someone who will never return is easier than having to face the pain of losing...a foolish thought, she says.....i love it.
After the first episode I listened to every single one of her songs and I really hoped that she'd play this one for her second performance...I melt every time...
나도 나름 전문가고 뉴욕필 전문 분들과 음악과 스토리를 공유했었는데.... 이진아씨 보다.... 심사위원들이 정말 수준이 있는 분들이구나 더 알게되는.... 프로그램임.. 이런 보석들을 알아 보고 겸손하게 평가하는 모습을 보고 더 감동.. 그래서.. 기획사 사장도 하고.. 최고의 아티스트구나 생각해봄... 문화에 오리지날이 어디있나? 짬뽕도 먹다가 어떤 맛인지를 제대로 이야기 해야 전문가지.. 암튼 세분의 전문가의 진심어린 평가로.. 한국의 미래를 짊어질 순수한 싱어송라이터를 발굴해 주셔서 감사할 따름... 이게.. 앞으로.. 한류다.
Who ever says that this is boring, doesn't know what music is and how music feels like. Especially when you tell a story as this one which hits you in the chest and makes you feel a certain way, her voice adds to it, it's what comes from the heart♥ and I support 이진아 for her own talent composing this song, the other contestants all have their forms of talents and they are all unique, they are all doing a great job and in the future they will become even better after this incredible experience in KPOPSTAR with the training of these 3 wonderful judges.
I think her songs would be perfect as an OST for kdramas. They're not really exciting but exceptional at setting the mood. I could literally picture a number of scenes that would compliment her songs thus far.
She'll release her 2nd album under Antenna Music with unique concept its called JinA Restaurant, and the appetizer 1st single will release on june 10 with title "I am Full", main course n dessert will follow XD
유튜브에 올라와있는 이 곡 마음대로의 째즈 버젼을 진짜 한 (오바를 좀 보태서) 오만번쯤 들은 것 같다. 예술을 하는 입장에서 좋은 예술이라는 것이 무엇일까 라는 생각을 했는데 이 노래를 들으며 답을 얻은 것 같았다. 계속하여 내 인생의 일부인 시간을 빼앗는(!) 그리고 그 시간동안 행복할 수 있는 예술이 좋은 예술이 아닐까 라는 생각을 했다. 나의 인생의 시간에 좋은 예술을 선물하는 이진아님이 항상 행복하고 건강하길!.
IMHO they should disqualify here already from the competition, she's way too good it would be like if Michael Jackson joined American Idol and started singing Thriller and other songs he composed while the rest of the competitors are singing covers. What made MJ amazing was that he was really unique when he burst into the scene and no one had heard of the type of music he makes, it's the same thing here Lee Jin Ah seems to have her own subgenre of "chill" or reflecting music, I want to buy her album and just listen to it and relax at home or think about my life. I mean as a judge how are you going to rate something original like these compared to other competitors? When a kpopstar contestant wins you'd think of someone like Lee Hi, a singer that was already really good but can still improve, in this case Lee Jin Ah is already a complete product, she's not gonna learn how to sing and dance and all that other stuff, she can already make music that moves peoples' hearts and tops music charts in Korea so what exactly does she need training or an agency for? JYP, Antenna and YG should take her out and just have a bidding war for her services IMHO.
Hey KPOPSTAR, Im not sure if you want will read this but I hope you will. Just a suggestion, can you put the judges reactions to be the performance below maybe cause I really wanna see the full performance of the contestants and not missing one bit really
I've already watch this a hundred times and still find myself mesmerize by her art. But for some reason today, I noticed something really different. The three judges looked very similar with Song Triplets. Yoo Hee Yeol as Daehan, JYP as Minguk, YG as Manse. Maybe, it's their expression. Hahaha. Though, I couldn't deny the triplets are cutest thing ever. The judges could never win that. God, I feel so weird today. Hahaha.
I know Lee Jin Ah because recommendation song at Spotify & I start looking for her song. End up I really into his style which really sincere, fantasy-like-image yet really honest and her activity at Lululala yt channel was so great 💚💚💚💚💜💜💜💜 He reminds me how S.korea music industry needs 'unique color' voice, artist & attitude like her
it's a really weird song.....this is definitely not a genre which I always listen to neither the melody is not what I love...however, I was goossbumping all the time!! when I listen to this song!!

+Fabrício Arakaki also incredibly high musicianship....
몇번 다시 들어봐도 몸이 무거워지는 느낌이 항상다시 돌아오네요 이건 어떻게 표현할수가 없는것같아요 ~굉장합니다. 솔직히 듣기 전에 설마 첮라운드때 보다 좋을까 싶었는데 ...와..이건 정말 말이 안나오네요 ~이진아씨 진짜 꼭 성공 하시길 ~
JYP looks broken everytime he hears her.
Beautiful composition from Lee Jin Ah again! I hope she wins this thing!
Can you tell me what the song is about?
***** I dont speak korean but i think its about being abandoned or something along those lines and they are waiting for them to return even though it hurts and how stupid they are acting. It's what the heart wants. Although i could be totally be off.

I'll provide an unofficial and poor translation of the song.
The way as I like (LEE Jin Ah)
You'll be never coming back and I know it is the fact that cannot be changed. (0:27 - 0:41)
But I am missing you, it is a little bit sad, though. ( 0:45 - 0:59)

You, only you can make me smile. (2:27 - 2:35)
I guess you may know my foolish mind. (2:38 - 2:46)
HAVE FUN
dfeynman yea its about the dog Hachiko.
dfeynman ah ok thanks for the reply. I was somewhat close! :D I'm trying to learn korean but it's hard trying to teach myself rather than a class.
This song never fails to make me emotional.

헛소리여 악뮤는 뭔데 그럼ㅋㅋㅋ
@@tiger-de7xg악뮤가 뭔 재즈임...?ㅋㅋㅋ
She has like 100%sincerity in her voice plus her unique voice is soo emchanting you will never be bored to listen to her..
note: she said in the show that this song is based on a movie about the dog waiting for its dead owner.
translation (closest, but not perfect):
"You will not return,"
I know it's an unchangeable truth.
I miss you. I am sad,
but I can't do anything about it.
My heart gravitates toward you, it won't move away.
Where are you,
what are you thinking?
I wonder if you know of my foolish heart?
I will wait,
despite the unchangeable,
I don't care.
Even if the coldness comes,
I always wait for you.
Even if my friends tells me to stop,
I always look for you.
Even when the new talks to me
I don't change in the end.
Only you, only you, makes me
smile at the end.
Wonder if you know of my foolish heart?
yes it was written based on the movie but it is actually about avoiding pain of losing loved one...waiting for someone who will never return is easier than having to face the pain of losing...a foolish thought, she says.....i love it.
"hearty Paw" is a korean movie she mentioned about. It's a really heart touching movie.
I thought she was talking about Hachiko :')
Hachiko? ☺️
That's a Japanese movie, I think. Versus Hearty Paw is the Korean movie. They both have dogs, so there might've been a confusion
언제 들어도 좋네요. 2024.05.10
she's so crazy!!! especially those chords!!!! i'm so in love with her piano and her unique voice 💕💕
After the first episode I listened to every single one of her songs and I really hoped that she'd play this one for her second performance...I melt every time...
진짜 대박이다. 목소리가 좋은게 아니라, 그 노래 음이, 상상도할수가 없을 정도로 멘붕.
Real composers understand each other very well ;)
정말 좋당 재즈 감성~~ ^^♡♡♡

Jyp and yoo hee yeol are falling in love and then there's Yg.jpg 😂😂😂😂
haha Yg is still so amazed like its the first time hes listened to her voice xD
+Friendly Alpaca lol i think that they're falling asleep...
yg was feeling her the moment jin ah sighed, he sighed too lol
Korea's music industry is looking very bright..can't believe they're doing this at their age

맨앞에 떨린 숨소리 ❤️
she is very talented singer song writer.
너무..정말 너무 좋아요
Her performance and voice are absolutely amazing. Love it.
Her voice is prefect for Christmas.
마음이라는 영화에서 강아지가 비가오나 눈이오나 한자리에서 주인을 기다리는 장면 보고 만들었다는데 강아지의 마음이 너무 잘 표현이되고 공감이 되서 첨엔 이노래듣고 엄청 울었었음..
This is just AMAZING!!! I've watched this so many times already😍😍 I'm so in love with this. She did a fabulous job. I LOVE HER!!!
her voice is so unique and amazing!
the more I listen to this song, the more my heart melts, truly
I think her songs would be perfect as an OST for kdramas. They're not really exciting but exceptional at setting the mood. I could literally picture a number of scenes that would compliment her songs thus far.
I actually haven't watched anything from season 4 but this girl is probably going to be the reason why I'm going to start!
SO BEAUTIFUL. YOU TOUCHED MY HEART
I really want her to release this song 😭
well it's released already years ago
DH Park Really? I haven't found a professional recorded version online. Just live performances
yea it's not in Apple music
My favorite this season, loooove it.
우리나라에서 좋아하는 가수가 없고 스타가 없었는데 생김 레알 내 스타일 노래 와 대에박
i love all of her songs~
i recommend her 1st album
you sing so great I will always support you
I can't wait to see what else she sings, her voice and the composition is so beautiful!
이노래는 최고의 재즈 뮤지션과 최고의 뉴에이지 뮤지션이 드래곤볼 퓨전을해서 만든 음악 같다. 비현실 적이다.
i just literally woke up when she sings. i really love her voice i like the way she sings. she deserves a spot on my fave kpop fan arts
I want her to win so badly!!!
Her voice........
she's really amazing
i love her... i dont understand the lyrics most of the time when there aren't any subtitles... but i love listening to her voice... so relaxing...
Come to hear the original song after watching Hui Yeol version. Immediately fall in love.
Her lyrics are so moving. She's not just a great voice but a super talented songwriter *****
She'll release her 2nd album under Antenna Music with unique concept its called JinA Restaurant, and the appetizer 1st single will release on june 10 with title "I am Full", main course n dessert will follow XD
+aprevasophie what a cool title! Ugh I knew she'd come up with something clever...I already love it. Cheers thanks for the info ^^
Tiffany Chu the official MV of I'm Full already out, the songs too.. check the official MV on 진아 이 yt channel,but kt music will upload it later
Her voice is so unique 😇
SHe's my favorite this whole season thus far!
JYP chose this as his first/top impression from the past 6 seasons!
the song is sweet like her voice, she is a gem and the judges like it
She is amazing ! So honest and so clear ! LOve it ! Big support from Bosnia and Herzegovina !
this is so beautiful and meaningful. I love Lee Jin Ah so much *^*
OMG!!!!! This girl is genius.
First time a song has made me cry.
I find her voice so attractive. I'm going to look forward on her future songs!
her voice reminds me of the soundtrack for hayao miyazaki's films... for some reason lol
i have no idea whats she saying but i teared up within the first twenty seconds of this video
She's not like any other artist soo unique
Lee Jin Ah for the win! I hope she can make it in the music industry! :) FIGHTING! Beautiful and talented..
youtube randomly bring me to this video and now i fall in love with her voice
Her voice is so soothing .
I prefer her singing a more upbeat song like her first one, but I still love her voice. I wonder why she sighed so heavily at the beginning?
The original songs this season totally blow my mind
Im watching this again and im having a goosebumps just like the first time I've watched this 5years ago
She and jung seung hwan are my favorite!! Hoping they'll be in the top two ☺
She's angel... (hi from Russia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺)
I just want to listen to all her songs now..so gooood
Noel is coming when I listen this song. Melody and her voice are one 🎵🎶🎸🎻🎷
유튜브에 올라와있는 이 곡 마음대로의 째즈 버젼을
진짜 한 (오바를 좀 보태서) 오만번쯤 들은 것 같다.
예술을 하는 입장에서 좋은 예술이라는 것이 무엇일까
라는 생각을 했는데 이 노래를 들으며 답을 얻은 것 같았다.
계속하여 내 인생의 일부인 시간을 빼앗는(!) 그리고 그 시간동안
행복할 수 있는 예술이 좋은 예술이 아닐까 라는 생각을 했다.
나의 인생의 시간에 좋은 예술을 선물하는 이진아님이 항상 행복하고 건강하길!.
2017 here
I really hope she wins!
Beautiful 🌸
good combine music...
i like it
One of very few songs/music that made me tear up..heavy yet beautiful song
IMHO they should disqualify here already from the competition, she's way too good it would be like if Michael Jackson joined American Idol and started singing Thriller and other songs he composed while the rest of the competitors are singing covers.

2020.04.14. 감성감성 눈물나는 감성.
Very unique voice
This still gets me emotional 😢
a gentle voice and sensitive text! it is so beautiful! perfectly!
its the lyrics and the sound go so well, creating a very light and pleasant innocent nostalgic feeling
Her music is sweet like candy! I love it!
유기견떠올리면서 들어봐 개슬픔
Daaaaamn she sing and play and she's who wrote the song and composed it !! This is genius 😍
Pure inspiration!
great composer!...
Hey KPOPSTAR, Im not sure if you want will read this but I hope you will. Just a suggestion, can you put the judges reactions to be the performance below maybe cause I really wanna see the full performance of the contestants and not missing one bit really
They have full performance version on their official website
It's on viki
I luv her voice omg she really special
I love how this was the song that made all three of the judges sit back and question their skills.
Her music is like a sad part of a Tim burton movie or when your walking in the park during fall its beautiful
Jyp looking like he was gonna cry ahahah
Wahh!! Her voice beyond anything
n YGsama pls take her to our Family
Her voice penetrates me so sharply. Bravo!
This is just.. so touching
17/06/20 best song ever :..(
I've already watch this a hundred times and still find myself mesmerize by her art.
But for some reason today, I noticed something really different. The three judges looked very similar with Song Triplets. Yoo Hee Yeol as Daehan, JYP as Minguk, YG as Manse. Maybe, it's their expression. Hahaha.
Though, I couldn't deny the triplets are cutest thing ever. The judges could never win that. God, I feel so weird today. Hahaha.
JinA birthday the same with Song triplets tho 😁
Feel like a kid listening to her voice, it feel like am in some cartoon (in a really good way)
I know Lee Jin Ah because recommendation song at Spotify & I start looking for her song.
End up I really into his style which really sincere, fantasy-like-image yet really honest and her activity at Lululala yt channel was so great 💚💚💚💚💜💜💜💜
He reminds me how S.korea music industry needs 'unique color' voice, artist & attitude like her
it's a really weird song.....this is definitely not a genre which I always listen to neither the melody is not what I love...however, I was goossbumping all the time!! when I listen to this song!!
So good, i very like you 😍
