Recently, Lee Hyori made her much awaited comeback with her 4th album, ‘H-Logic’. Once the teaser pictures and videos were released, people started to criticize her for looking like Lady Gaga, but what does Lee Hyori have to say about this?
On the 13th, Hyori gave an interview where she talked about her new concept and commented about the copycat accusations.
She said about being compared to Lady Gaga:

“The music style is completely different… Other than the blonde hair, nothing is all the same, but they take that one thing and call it copying… If you look at all blonde haired singers, there ought to be over 100. Lady Gaga is very unique. Someone who knows her personally would not say that I am like her at all.”
“If people say that the blonde hair alone makes me similar to Lady Gaga, I have nothing to say. It’s because of those comments that people can’t attempt new various styles, which is a shame.”

On her new video for the song ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’, Hyori shows a new and glamorous side of herself. Hyori commented that if there are 100 different styles she deserves the chance to try them out. With this new concept she is trying to attempt new things showing people that experimenting with things does not mean she is imitating another person.
Hyori also gave an explanation to the meaning of the 1st video teaser for ‘H-Logic’ which showed three different Lee Hyori’s, by saying:

“The three styles in the teaser can be seen as Lee Hyori on variety shows, on stage, and the real Lee Hyori. However, my charisma on stage, and my family-like personality on variety shows is not the complete ‘me’. All of my personalities on stage and shows are inside of me, but I don’t think you can stick just one personality to define me.”
