옥주현
Ock Joo Hyun (옥주현 born March 20, 1980) is a K-pop singer, known mostly for her role as the lead vocal for South Korean girl group Fin.K.L. The group was immensely popular and catapulted all the members into stardom. Although recognized for her vocal talents, Ock received much criticism for her weight, being larger than the average K-Pop star, and for her looks, which were seen as unattractive. Over the years, she attempted to lose weight and conform to what fans’ expectations were of her, but she did not fully succeed. Starting her solo career in summer of 2003, she came out with a strong ballad called “Nan…”, which received a fair amount of airplay and entered the top 10 of Korea’s music charts. However, she did not have a follow-up for this single, and promotions for the album were quickly dropped. By her second album, which came out in the fall of 2004, the public was startled by the sudden change in look, as she had dramatic weight loss; Ock attributed to her intense yoga training. Although her second album succumbed to the decline in Korea’s music sales, this new look raised her popularity and she was able to perform on various music shows for a lengthy period with her singles “Catch” and “Sweet Rainyday”.
