Vocal Range

C#3 ~ A6 (3 octaves and 4 notes)

Supported Range

G3/G#3 ~ C#5/D5

Voice Type

Full Lyric Soprano

Strengths/Achievements Very well trained and consistent mixed register often carrying resonance up to C#5/D5 Support can sometimes be carried up to Eb5/E5 Knows to lighten her mix the higher she goes Very well placed sound in the mix and lower register Normally sings with a risen soft palate Very smooth legato singing Very well placed and rounded resonance on C5/C#5 No weak registers Can maintain tone down to C#3 relaxed falsetto up to E5/F5 Weaknesses Mix can get too heady at times losing projection Notes above Eb5/E5 are constricted with a slightly risen larynx On the ‘aye’ vowel sound (애 and 에) tends to close Mixing technique seems to have declined a bit since debut When runs are attempted they come out messy and inaccurate Registers Lower register:  Eunji’s lower register is fairly well trained and connected to the rest of her voice. She’s capable of maintaining a neutral larynx and supported sound down to G3/G#3 and maintaining tone done to C#3, however notes below G3 lack true projection and support. Mixed register: Definitely Eunji’s most well trained and consistent registers. She’s capable of keeping a supported and resonant sound up to C#5/D5 and occasionally up to Eb5/ E5.  She finds the most resonance around the C5/C#5 range.  Notes above Eb5, including E5, have a more constricted and small sound due to her not truly supporting and keeping open. Upper register: The weakest and least explored register in performances. Eunji has an extremely extensive upper register being able to go all the up to an A6. However, even though she has an extensive head register, she doesn’t really use it in performance singing normally maxing out at G5. She also doesn’t use a true head voice normally using a relaxed falsetto. Agility

Even though EunJi has a lyric voice when she attempts to sing runs and melisma of any kind they don’t normally come with a smooth fluid sound and pitch can be off. However she rarely incorporates runs and melisma in her performances so this problem is normally avoided.

Overall analysis

Eunji has been turning heads in Korea with her rich and full voice ever since her debut as Apink’s Main Vocalist in 2011. Eunji quickly made a name for herself as a vocalist with the fact that her voice was well showcased in Apink’s songs. She quickly became known as the vocal “powerhouse” of the group.

As main vocalist of Apink, Eunji is responsible for managing the high notes and carrying the group t
