DANA Pimp Post
I've been meaning to do something like this for a while, but I'm kind of lazy. Today, though, I'll put my best effort into introducing you all to Hong SungMi (aka DANA) from TSZX the Grace. ^-^

Now you know a little more about DANA. She's got pretty interesting taste in music, right? And a strong personality. But what drew me in initially was her
aegyo. She's the queen of cute, and everyone knows it (everyone also knows that she's a total
camwhore). Not only is she generally adorable, but her personality is totally
adorkable.
But just because she's cute doesn't mean she can't be sexy too. Just check out her
s-line (
want more?). She hasn't got
the thinnest waist in CSJH, but her figure is nothing to laugh at.
Physical image aside, though, she's very
professional. Knows just how to handle a wardrobe malfunction without disrupting a show. And even when she
makes a mistake, she recovers herself gracefully. The only problem is how much she pushes herself to the point where she gets hurt and
misses performances. :( But her hard work during
her trainee days is obviously still something she keeps up.
I also have no doubt that she spends all her free time in front of a mirror with a hairbrush imitating other people's songs. Kinda like HeeChul. Just look at how much fun she has
here and all over
1000 Songs Challenge (
part 2 part 3 part 4). I bet she imitates
the dances, too.
She's one of the more
emotional members, too. I've never seen a girl tear up so much. But she's compassionate and it's totally endearing.
If that's not enough to like her, there's also her undeniable talent. Not everyone likes her voice, I know, but you have to admit the girl can sing. 1000 Songs Challenge wasn't enough? Let's try her out
with YehSung or
just her girls.
Live performances are my favorites, but you can test out
other songs she never got a chance to perform, too.
As a musician, though, she does more than just sing. She writes lyrics and music. 'Tonight is on Me' was by her, as well as her solo track on the 'Juicy Love' single.
I'm not the only one who likes her. Watch her impress her future husband and papa-in-law
Eru and Tae JinAh, dork it up with
Super Junior, girltalk
Bada, tease newbie
DongBang, abuse
MinWoo, rock the dance floor
Tim, win
JiSuk's heart, even
YoonAh mentioned her. But my favorite DANA x other people video is...
Hotmail. :> Here she is abused by HwanHee, coddled by Shoo, snuggly with YunHo, and... well it's just amazing. Then again, who's surprised? She's so friendly even
with strangers.
She's so cool, that KangTa even took her on in
Polaris.
But WonBin might be a lost cause. As an actress, she has participated in the 'Dae Janggeum' musical in Spring 2010, starring as its lead - The Great Janggeum. She remarked that it was a difficult transition, but finally learned to channel her frustration into her acting and improved a lot. Fall 2010 she will be participating in a more modern rock musical - 'Rock of Ages', as the female lead Sherrie.
Want a deeper look into her personality? I recommend... the video above - it's a tour of her house, a look into her family interactions. You should also look into as many of her nonstop episodes/clips as you can find. She's positively adorable. And
devious in the one about the bear. There are no subs, but
DANA v Eru on Happy Shares Company and
CSJH on Star Watch are great for laughs. She's also sweet in interviews, like with
Arirang Showbiz Extra or
Happy Days. And I loved CSJH on
KM Idol World.
There you have it. ^^ I hope that was a helpful introduction to CSJH's cute one~
