Ayu... I don't quite like her. It took me a long while to finally enjoy listening to her songs. For one thing, she does sound like a chipmunk but that's not the thing that deters me from her songs. She just can't sing. At least not Hikki level. SPEED can't sing too! Was it 'Hey Hey Hey!' ? I forget... but they had Hiro singing one of Glay's slower songs... and it was terrible.
As for Korean craze... I think Ayu kept her own during the Korean craze two-three years ago, but now that many of the old groups faded out (H.O.T., Shinhwa, Sech Kies, S.E.S. to name a few)... there's not much of a Korean craze anymore. FttS, G.O.D., and Baby Vox are still good ... FinKL is alright... but really... it was H.O.T. that gave KPOP life. Kang Ta by himself can't rejuvenate SM Entertainment. In fact, JTL is doing better.
Then you have Boa... and hey... I like Boa's music much more than Ayu's! But her Chinese is mediocre.
