Tahiti’s Ari’s Facts
Ari’s Debut with TAHITI
In her debut, Tahiti’s Ari at that time was still a teenager at 17 years old. Although she had not been in Tahiti from the start, she managed to become the next member on Tahiti’s first comeback when she released their second single with “Hasta Luego.” “Hasta Luego” is a song of the recent popular depth-step genre, and its simple rhythm and addictive melody are impressive. “Hasta Luego” means “See you again next time” in Spanish. After being betrayed by a loved one, the lyrics are “Let’s see if we’re happy.” Producer Ryan Jeon and composers Jd Relic and Ashley Moua who participated in songs for celebrities such as Lee Hyo-ri, TVXQ, SHINee, and Chosinsung participated in this album.
The agency DS Entertainment said, “This album was created to make full use of the individual members’ individuality. We tried to show Tahiti’s own dignified and unique color.” Tahiti is made up of six members including Jisoo with an innocent appearance known as the “Chuncheon Han Gain,” “Dongguk University Goddess” Jung-bin as the “Charisma Dancing Machine,” and EJ and Min-jae as the “Power Vocalists.” “It was really regrettable that the activities of the debut song ‘Tonight’ was shortened after I joined the group. I hope you will like it because I really polished my teeth and prepared hard with the heart of making my debut this time. But this time, our song ‘Hasta Luego’ is often heard in the streets such as convenience stores, so I’m really happy. Since the title is Spanish, I heard that it is getting a lot of attention from Spanish people on YouTube. It was amazing,” Ari said in an interview with OSEN that was held on November 22, 2012. The uniqueness of the concept of another rookie girl group, namely Tahiti, had the opposite luck. In the midst of the competition between rookies aka newcomers to the K-pop music industry, Tahiti didn’t seem to have a “weapon” to be recognized by K-pop lovers. This was also realized by the members Jisoo, Ari, Jung-bin, Min-jae, Jin-hee, and Miso. During a fan meeting to celebrate one year of Dreamstar Entertainment’s girl group, the members also shed tears when talking about their current popularity. “This event was held to celebrate our 1st year of debut, but there are still many people who don’t know Tahiti. I will work harder and make a lot of people remember us even more,” said the leader, Jung-bin, as reported by Enewsworld. Seeing her partner’s sadness, Min-jae added, “All of our members really care about this. We will work hard to be at the top position and continue our career with a more mature and good attitude. This time, we really want to be in the top 10 positions.”
