Wanita tercantik di dunia

Top 100 beautiest women

Banyak daftar Wanita Tercantik yang dikeluarkan oleh berbagai lembaga dan media. Berbagai majalah serta website setiap tahun berlomba-lomba menggelar survey maupun berembuk secara internal untuk menentukan siapa saja wanita tercantik di dunia. TC Candler adalah salah satunya.

Sejak tahun 1990, website ini rutin mengeluarkan daftar The Annual Independent Critics List of the 100 Most Beautiful Faces. Uniknya, pemilihan wanita-wanitanya bukan berdasarkan survey, dan bukan juga berdasarkan popularitas sang selebritas. Mereka mengklaim bahwa daftar ini disusun dari ratusan nama seleb dari berbagai penjuru dunia, berbeda dengan daftar lain yang biasanya hanya memuat nama-nama seleb Hollywood saja.




Maka tak heran jika dalam daftar 100 Wanita Tercantik versi TC Candler, seringkali ditemukan nama dan wajah yang kurang familiar. Maklum saja, wanita tersebut adalah seleb yang berasal dari negara-negara "nomor dua" seperti India, Rusia, Israel, dan sebagainya.

Tahun ini, untuk pertama kalinya ada nama wanita Korea yang masuk. Dia adalah Song Hye Gyo, yang oleh publik Indonesia dikenal lewat aktingnya di serial televisi seperti Full House. Song Hye Gyo menempati posisi 18, yang bahkan lebih tinggi dibanding Megan Fox yang hanya menempati urutan ke 64. Kecantikan Song Hye Gyo disebut-sebut sebagai "sempurna", dan mungkin saja namanya bisa ditemukan di urutan 10 besar tahun depan.

Korean Female Top Group-Wonder Girls

The Wonder Girls debuted as a five member group in early 2007 with mini-album The Wonders Begin, but underwent a change of member just months later with Hyuna leaving and Yoobin coming in. The new team released their first full album The Wonder Years in September; its main track Tell Me was a huge hit.




ADVERTISEMENTS

Wonder Girl’s popularity is soaring ever since. They released single So Hot in June 2008, which did well; followed by Nobody a few months later which was again one of the most popular songs of the year.
The girls also starred in their own reality TV program Wonder Bakery in late 2008.
After scooping numerous awards at year end music shows, the girls kicked off their first concert tour in February 2009, starting from Bangkok before moving to the US and ending the tour back in South Korea in March.
An announcement was made shortly after the end of their tour, that the girls were ready to take on the American market in full force with the English version of Nobody. And their company brought in another good news in June that the girls would be joining the Jonas Brothers’ concert tour as opening act.
The tour ended in late August, and it obviously helped the girls to gain popularity in the states, as their Nobody single gained a place on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, making them the first ever Korean artists to achieve the feat.
The girls launched their own WG by Wonder Girls cosmetic brand in early 2010. And they are also popular commercial models, endorsing for EXR fashion, BBQ chicken, Cafe Mori and Crown bakery etc. (no longer contracted to some though).
The group underwent their second member change with Sun Mi leaving in February 2010 to pursue her study. Hong Kong born Hye-rim came in as replacement; and the new team released a multi-lingual EP 2 Different Tears in May. The girls also starred in their own reality TV show Made in Wonder Girls in 2010.

Artis Seksi Korea Jang Na Ra

Artis seksi Korea Jang NaRa was born on March 18, 1981 in Seoul, South Korea. Artis seksi Jang NaRa is known as famous actress and singer in Korea. As a kid, artist sexy Jang NaRa has already appeared in the play 'Les Miserables', with her dad (who is now her manager). She officially debuted in May 2001 with her first album. Many people thought she debuted as an actress, but she actually became a singer first.

Her first debut song is "Burying My Face With Tears", an R&B type ballad. But the reception of this song was not great. At the time Jang Nara debuted, there were lots of new female singers and she's "just one of them". This song missed the top 10 and went to only No. 12 in the music chart. Her music activity stopped for a while.
In June 2001, Jang Nara made her official acting debut in the popular MBC sitcom "New Non-Stop". Over the years, the "Non-stop" series have produced so many outstanding entertainers in Korea today. Jang Nara also got her big break after appearing in this sitcom. Her cute and lovely image was well received by fans.
To show her multi-dimensional talent, Jang Nara also made her debut as MC of the gayo show "Music Camp" with Ji Sung. More and more people in Korea knew Jang Nara by then.
Late in 2002, Jang Nara resumed her gasoo activities and released the 2nd single "Confession" (one of my favorite songs of her) from her 1st album. With the popularity she gained in "New Non-Stop", a lot more people knew and discovered her. As a result, this song did much better than her 1st single. It went to No. 1 on most music charts in December 2002.
With the success of "Confession", Jang Nara was named "best new female artist" on most year end gayo award ceremonies in 2001. Her album sales were steadily climbing every week, despite the album being released for more than half a year.
In April 2002, Jang Nara landed her first lead role in the drama "Successful Story of a Bright Girl", co-starring with Jang Hyuk. This drama was very popular not only in Korea, but in other Asian countries as well. Oversea fans started to recognize Jang Nara.
With the success of her first drama, Jang Nara quickly landed the lead role of another drama "My Love Patzzi". This time she co-starred with Kim Jae Won and Kim Rae Won. This drama actually had a low rating in Korea, but more successful overseas subsequently. She sang a few songs on this drama, including "Sweet Dream", "May Be This Is Love", and "I'll Be There". Fans are waiting anxiously for Jang Nara to release her 2nd album.
In October 2002, her 2nd album was finally released. Within a few days, 200,000 copies were sold, and it was one of the top selling albums in 2002. "Sweet Dream" instantly became a No. 1 song. To this date, it is still her most popular songs. Jang Nara is so cute on the MV of "Sweet Dream".
Jang Nara's skyrocketing popularity made her winning 2 DaeSangs (KBS and MBC) at 2002 year end, splitting with BoA that year. Many people compared Jang Nara and BoA but they are of very different style. Besides "Sweet Dream", Jang Nara scored another No. 1 song with "Snow Man" in early 2003.
Jang Nara made her movie debut in 2003 with a comedy "Oh Happy Days", co-starred with Park Jung Chul. Sadly, this movie was a flop at the box office, and we have not seen Jang Nara in another movie since then.
In December 2003, Jang Nara released her 3rd album (in my opinion that's her best album). On this album Jang Nara changed her style to sing more rock type songs, and she was performing with her own "Jang" band. The title song "Last Pray" once again was a No. 1 song.

The music this video of this song was made in Switzerland with very beautiful scenery. Even though this song was successful on the chart, but clearly it was not as popular as her 2nd album.
Jang Nara made a bold move in 2004 - she wanted to develop oversea markets. Many singers choose Japan as the destination of their oversea advanture, Jang Nara instead choose to go for the Chinese market. Even though her popularity in Korea is slipping, she's still very well known especially in Chinese markets, especially her dramas. The boldest move is that Jang Nara is moving to Beijing China to live full time there to develop her new career. The loss of Korean fans is the gain of Chinese fans. She released her first Chinese album in 2004 - most of the songs were covered version of her hit Korean songs. Her Chinese pronounciation is not bad. She also started making Chinese dramas. Up to now she has released 3 Chinese albums and participated in 3 Chinese dramas as well.
In December 2004, Jang Nara returned home briefly to release her 4th album "My Story", but her busy schedule prevents her from appearing in gayo shows to promote. Still, her title song of this album "Winter Diary" reached the top 3 in music charts. In 2005, Jang Nara returned to Korean drama and starred in the KBS mini-series "Wedding". However, the rating was very poor.
Jang Nara spent almost all of 2006 in China, where she's very successful. She returned to k-pop in 2007. First released a digital single "I'm Not Happy" in January, and a month later, released her 5th Korean album "She". The title song "Calling Out Love" is a powerful ballad that required good vocal skills in the chorus part. Jang Nara performed this song many times and we can see that her vocal skills has improved a lot compared to her earlier days (I wouldn't think she'd able to sing this song 2 years ago). At 26 now, her image is also a lot more mature and that is a nice surprise to her fans.
When she started out her career, Jang Nara is not the best singer out there, but she always gives 100% on her performances, and she always sings live. Her vocal skills improves on every album, and she is not afraid to try out new style of music. Over the years, we are seeing that a cute little girl has grown into a beautiful, mature woman.
