Indie Rock band from San Jose, California. The group was
formed in January 1996, and broke up in 1999 due to conflicts between
the two singers. They released one CD (Korea Girl in 1997; rereleased in
1999 with additional bonus tracks) and one 7" (Reunion also in 1997) on
Asian Man Records, and also appear on various Asian Man compilation CDs
as well as a video/DVD. Korea Girl was declared Album of the Year in
1997 by radio station KSCU. The group's name was presumably inspired by
the fact that Yi is of Korean descent. The cover of their self-titled
album depicts, in cartoon fashion, a schoolgirl carrying two revolvers.
Korea Girl's music was generally melodic and understated, featuring
both male and female vocals and using clean and undistorted guitars in
the manner of such earlier indie rock groups as Blake Babies.
