==History==
===Debut===
Bae Seul Ki is a [[South Korea]]n pop singer. Educated at [[Sangmyong University]] in the areas of drama and cinematography, Bae first debuted in the fall of 2005 as part of the project group The 빨강 (The Red) with actresses Oh Seung-Eun and Ju So-Young, which allowed her to gain stage experience and fame before her solo debut. Appearing on many variety shows, she became an Internet sensation when she showed her 복고 (''bokko'' meaning "old school") dance on [[Seoul Broadcasting System|SBS]]'s ''Love Letter''.


Card was responsible for the collections of the Mining Museum in [[Sydney]] and was a friend of [[William Rowan Browne]].
===Solo Singer===
===2006===
After the group split in early 2006 (as it was a "project group", used for introducing new singers), the record company felt that Bae Seul Ki could handle being a solo singer. They quickly prepared a digital single, with a full album following in the fall of 2006. The first single from the album, "강한 여자" (''Ganghan Yujah'', meaning "Strong Woman"), had Carlos from the Korean rap group [[Uptown (group)|Uptown]] and featured Bae with many [[b-boys]] in a heavily choreographed breakdancing routine. However, this single was quickly abandoned after a few weeks in favor of "말괄량이" (''Malgwalyangee'', meaning "Tomboy" or "Sassy Girl"), a song with a cute, light feel. It was more in line with popular taste, as similar songs like "Cutie Honey" by [[Ahyoomee]] (from [[Sugar (group)|Sugar]]) and "Love Me Love Me" from Lee Ji Hye (formerly of [[S♯arp|S#arp]]) were doing well. This song managed to perform well on the Korean music charts, and the music video also became number one for three weeks{{Fact|date=February 2007}}. In addition to promoting her single, she has also assisted [[Eru (singer)|Eru]]'s performances of his second album comeback single, "까만 안경" (''Ggaman Angkyung'', "Black Glasses").<ref>{{zh icon}} [http://ent.sina.com.cn/y/2006-10-16/16511286531.html Singer Eru releases new album, recruits Bae Seul Ki to help promote].

Card was awarded the [[Clarke Medal]] by the [[Royal Society of New South Wales]] in 1935.
With the success of "Tomboy", her record company quickly released her second digital single in December of 2006.
