Narsha Admits Her Band Brown Eyed Girls Gets Treated Like Old Ladies: ‘They Are Giving Too Much Respect To Their Elders’ She Jokes

We are happy and sad at the same time [about being veteran performers]," Narsha said, according to the website allkpop.
Singer Narsha of the four-piece girl group Brown Eyed Girls, says that although she and her bandmates like the respect that comes with having been around for a few years, they don’t want to be treated like old ladies.
Brown Eyed Girls was formed in 2006.
“We are happy and sad at the same time [about being veteran performers],” Narsha said, according to the website allkpop.
“There are a lot of idols who we don’t know, and they all come up to us first and greet us. But there is no one for us to greet as our juniors.”
Narsha admitted that she and the other members of Brown Eyed Girls have a difficult time restraining their maternal instincts with some of the younger artists, yet the special treatment they often receive from them makes the group feel old.
“When we look at the [new artists], they are really pretty,” Narsha said.
“Although we are also a girl group, we think that we are different so rather than a competition, we just naturally show our mommy smiles. It also seems like we are being treated more formally. Now we get to use our own dressing room. Although we are thankful for the care, they are giving too much respect to their elders.”
Narsha also opened up about the way that the groups’ tough onstage persona has given the people in their real life a false impression of who they really are.
“The most regrettable thing is that on stage, we’ve been showing a strong and fierce…character, so that image gets transferred to every other aspect of our life,” she said.
“Each one of us is fun, but we’re unable to show all of our personalities. If you get to know us, we are nice [girls]. We’re also [far from perfect], and we’re funny in some aspects.”
Narsha claims that in reality, she and her Brown Eyed Girls bandmates are the best kind of friends to have.
“Our biggest strength is that we’re honest,” said the 31-year-old singer.
The group’s leader JeA, also 31, discussed how the band’s desire to perform seems to grow the longer that they do it.
“As we start our promotions and perform on stage more and more, we form a thirst for it,” JeA said.
“We plan to try out more things in the future. If the public approves, we have a lot to show genre and concept-wise. We hope that fans see Brown Eyed Girls’ various charms.”
