Korean Rocker Chicks

What I like about those rocker chicks is that many of them are NOT vocalists. Over here, 99% of female rockers are vocalists unless they are in an all-female band. I mean, I like it when girls sing rock, but it sometimes makes me wonder if people think girls can’t rock guitars and basses. Anyways, here are our rockin’ Korean chicks…
Kim Yoona(Jawoorim)

With her beautiful baby

She’s the main vocalist and frontwoman for one of the most well-known(sorry for the contradictory) Korean indie bands, Jawoorim. Her lyrics are very eccentric, and you never know what you will get from her!

Check out: Carnival Amour, Love Rock ‘n Roll, and Il Tal.

 Yozoh

Aww!

I think she’s a solo musician, not sure. Sometimes referred to as one of the three ”Goddesses of Hongdae(the official mecca of Korean alternative cultures),” she sure is cute, making her one of the chosen few “cute” rocker chicks. She used to be a hip hop musician, but now she’s indie rock:)

Check out: My Name is Yozoh, Honey Honey Baby, Roller Coaster of Love.

U(Shingaram Band)

She plays the bass for Shingaram Band, an indie/emotive hardcore band. She lives with her two adorable, “metalhead” cats, and has a hot boyfriend, who’s also a rocker. Also a relatively famous alternative model, she has modeled for Fender and a bunch of alternative fashion brands. What more can a rocker chick wish for?

Check out: It’s Me, Run Away, Sad Radio

Kim Kyungin(Peter Pan Complex)

I’m so happy to find a female drummer who’s not in a girl band. She drums for Peter Pan Complex, a Britpop/alternative rock band. Not only she rocks her drums like there is no tomorrow, she also has a pretty face and a heartwarming smile.

Check out: Burn It Down, The First Step to Love, Memories of You

Cho Yoojin(Cherry Filter)

She’s the lead singer and frontwoman for Cherry Filter, an indie band. Her voice is very husky and powerful, but just because she has a husky voice, doesn’t mean that she can’t hit ultra high notes with ease!
