Two Month's Kim Ye-rim returned to K-pop alone with her solo song "All Right" on June 17 and is looking to dethrone Sistar. On Melon, the biggest music website in Korea, she is still second to Sistar. Everywhere else, however, Kim Ye-rim is currently ranked number one.
As far as popularity is concerned, Kim Ye-rim is definitely on the lower end compared to Baek Ah Yeon from K-Pop Star who returned on the same day. Also, Kim Yerim's "Color Ring" which was released on June 4 did not make it anywhere near the top of music charts. As such, her sudden rise to the top with "All Right" begs the question, "What happened?"
Without a doubt, the teaser image released on June 14 played a big part. Appearing in panties and comfortable yet sexy pajamas, Kim Ye-rim swept across the Internet and became one of the most searched terms online for a couple of days.
After School also came back with something shocking even for their heightened standards. Incorporating pole dance to their choreography, After School decided to stand out from the flurry of girl groups that were returning in June.
"When word first got around about our pole dance choreography, we got a lot of negative comments. But after seeing the kind of complete performance our members have mastered, people have become more receptive to it," an associate from After School's management company commented,
Other artists waiting to return have their minds set on being special. Dal Shabet, set to come back on June 20, named their title song, "Look At My Legs." In the teaser image, the faces of the members are covered up, only revealing their long, bare legs. Doing away with the cute stuff, Dal Shabet is apparently going on the 'sexy' route, too.
