U.S. media have focused on a 16-year-old Korean female rookie singer, following Psy, 35, who has jumped to the world�s stardom with music video �Gangnam Style.� The Wall Street Journal introduced the rising star in an article titled as �Meet Korea�s Adele� on its online edition, Monday. The paper compared Lee to British female singer Adele with fabulous voice and said her debut single,�1,2,3,4� swept to top spot in Korea�s music charts for the past 23 days. Ms. Lee was the runner-up on popular singing-audition show �K-Pop Star� on SBS TV in April and joined YG Entertainment, the home of Psy, Big Bang and 2NE1, the paper�s website reported. Adele sang the theme song of the latest 007 series, Skyfall, which was released in October. Her popular songs include �Rolling in the Deep� and �Someone Like You.� Lee�s single has accumulated 1.3 million downloads, over half of which were in the week after its Oct. 29 launch, in the range normally set by established K-pop superstars. On Nov. 12, she became the first female debut act to hit top spot in Billboard�s K-Pop Hot 100 this year. Dubbed as �Monster rookie,� Lee has also released a new song titled, 'Scarecrow,' on Nov. 22 for another hit.
