T-ARA Top 3 "Sexy Love" Raps [Eng Sub] + Bonus Original w/ Hwayoung

I own nothing here, collect no revenues, no objections to copyright-holder ads that support artists/agents
I've always liked the Rap Section in "Sexy Love", the turnaround, "Let's make a Bomb, Up & Down, Up & Down". Most of the time in live clips they don't showcase this part.
There are actually a couple of videos out on YouTube that are nothing but these rap-parts, strung together one-after-another. I know there is one of Areum's parts, and I think there is one of Boram's parts too.
If you disagree with my ranking, please comment, because really, it is a subjective impression, and there are no "right" answers

[ NOTE: I slightly slowed down the live performance clips to highlight the cool little turnaround dance move. Each clip was slowed down independently between 7-9%. And while it is possible to slow down the video, and still maintain the original pitch, it is an extra bunch of work that I didn't bother with ]

Number-3: Areum @ Hong Kong 2012 which was very shortly after Sexy Love was released. At this SHOWCASE, T-ARA spoke English off & on during the show. Member Introductions, and on some song introductions. Areum put a little more enthusiasm into this performance than in most of them.

Number-2 Jiyeon at an preview mini-concert @ Toyko's Budokan July 2013, which was just ahead of a Japan-Tour. Days before this show, CCM 'released' Areum, and Jiyeon had to step up and learn this part pretty quickly. Not sure why I like this performance so much, maybe just because it's different from the others.
As I post this video it is early June 2017, SoyRam has at least temporarily left the group. I hope that in the new T-ARA-4, that maybe Jiyeon will do this part again.
{HOWEVER, my prediction is: MBK will throw Sexy-Love into some kind of stoopid greatest-hits medley, and leave this part out all together}

NUMBER-ONE: Boram @ Hefei 2015. Her Aegyo {making cute face} is great here, and this is the only time I've ever seen her, or any other member of T-ARA do this

BONUS-CONTENT: "Supposedly" this is the 'original' version of: "Sexy Love" that was recorded in July of 2012 just before the Scandal, when Hwayoung left the group. Here is a KPOP Press article from the middle of July, saying the song has already been recorded, with 8 members {no Dani, although she was hanging out sometimes }. Supposedly, Hwayoung is doing the Rap on this version.
The article says the "Mirage" mini-album will be released in mid August, but after Hwayoung left the group, they re-recorded the song, and "Mirage" ended up coming out in September

To my knowledge there are no video clips or even pictures of Hwayoung doing anything on Sexy Love. At one point there probably were, but after the "Scandal", CCM probably destroyed any that previously existed. On the contrary, there are at least 2 promotional "Sexy Love" videos that feature Dani Kim in very brief little moments.

The little 4-second Orangutang clip at the end is from a 6-minute video called: "Jiyeon Dance" / hoang louis {Jan 2013}
