In the past two years, Bada left the K-Pop music scene in favor of musicals. With her award-winning performances in Notre Dame de Paris and Beautiful Girl, the veteran singer hoped to reinvent her image.

The Korean singer is making a late summer comeback with her fourth album. However, hot on the heels of her KBS Music Bank performance, netizens are claiming that Bada lip-synched her way through the performance as it sounds "too perfect like listening to a CD."

Bada's management company issued a statement saying that she was singing live and dancing at the same time and that there ".... could have been confusion among viewers because it was such a perfect performance." It was so perfect, in fact, that even her company thought she was performing to a pre-recorded version. However, staff members on Music Bank said that Bada had in fact sang live.

SM Entertainment will postpone its annual SMTOWN LIVE '09 concert due to legal action being taken by the three members of the pop group Dong Bang Shin Ki. The concert was scheduled for Aug. 16 at the main stadium of Jamsil Sports Complex.

``We express our apologies to fans that we have to announce such sad news … We promise we will bring a better event in the future,'' SM Entertainment said in a press release Friday. The agency said that they will give refunds for tickets that have already been purchased.

The announcement came following the news that Hero, Micky and Xiah submitted an application for provisional disposition to terminate the validity of their contract with the agency last week. The legal action caused waves in the pop industry, along with fans who worried the group would disband.

SMTOWN LIVE '09 is one of the biggest concert events here hosted by the agency starring some of the most popular groups in Korea, including Dong Bang Shin Ki, Girls' Generation, and Super Junior.
