Yeah! I watched some of her videos and she's good. I'm surprised people that don't know Korean well (sound) like they sing it fairly decently. Does she speak Korean at all?

i saw some interview with her when this was popular and I believe she said she didn't. I'm fairly certain she had never been to Korea; she was just interested in Kpop.

There are way more Koreaphiles than I would have thought.

Because how Korean is mostly written in nice convenient blocks of syllables, it is easier to sing even if you have little knowledge of Korean.
