Lizzy's advice on how to acquire the voice she uses for Orange Caramel and for trot (but not for After School):
I'm even more behind than usual (mid-year list to come, once again w/ Lizzy). I keep promising research on After School, never get there. So just several adjectives for you:
After School, who were kinda all over in their early years, have settled into smooth vocals, effortlessly poignant, when required, but holding rough rhythms under their hood. One of the few K-pop groups to sound as good in Japanese as Korean. Meanwhile, Orange Caramel's** rampaging cuteness conquers all, style atop style. No social insights from me. Cuteness doesn't play in North America, probably for good reason, but that doesn't mean we're living our lives better than South Koreans are living theirs.
After School "Triangle"
Orange Caramel "Catallena"

**Orange Caramel is a subunit, consisting of three members of After School: Nana, Raina, and Lizzy.
