YG's Powerful Lineup, 'Why is Lee Hi in the Lead?'

For this year's lineup for YG Enterainment, their most anticipated was not Big Bang, 2NE1 or even Psy, but 'super rookie' Lee Hi.

Lee Hi took over the last half of last year with her title of 'monster rookie'. With only being a rookie, many wonder why YG CEO Yang Hyun Suk has put the pressure on 16 year old Lee Hi.

From the beginning, Yang Hyun Suk had stated, "There is no singer in Korea that has a unique and beautiful voice like her."

He also had a closer bond with her in that he was the judge of the audition program, "K-Pop Star," in which Lee Hi was a contestant in.

Yang Hyun Suk trained and brought out a totally upgraded image of Lee Hi for her debut last year with her song, "1,2,3,4." She ranked number 1 on all music charts and programs and gained many fans. Yang Hyun Suk was successful in creating a star.

Yang Hyun Suk was quick to bring Lee Hi back to the music scene, which is rare for YG, considering they are known to take awhile before releasing a new album. Lee Hi made her comeback in just 6 months and it was revealed that Yang Hyun Suk took up the producing for this album.

With her comeback to be set for this month, the teaser images shocked fans with her unbelievable upgrade. On February 26, they released a picture on their official blog which revealed her shocking weight loss and overflowing beauty. This was a huge difference from her debut when she was a bit chubbier and young.

With her debut last October, she set records for the fastest and best with her music.

Many are curious as to how she will make her new comeback with her upgraded looks.

In her teaser image on February 25, she revealed 3 dates, March 1, March 7 and March 21. In her teaser image on February 26, it revealed 3 words, 'Single', 'Mini' and 'Album'.

It was also revealed that she pre-released her intro song, "Turn it Up" on the official YG blog.
