  • Name: Bada
  • Native name: 바다
  • Given name: Choi Seong Hee
  • Also Known as: Choi Sung Hee, 최성희, Choi Seong Hui

Choi Seong Hee, known professionally as Bada, is a South Korean singer, dancer, musical actress and former member of S.E.S (에스이에스). She graduated from Anyang Arts High School and later obtained a bachelor's degree in Performance and Film from Dankook University.

She made her debut in November 1997 as the group's leader, main vocalist and main dancer with their first album, "I'm Your Girl", which became the third best-selling album by a female group in South Korea. They were the first girl group launched by Lee Soo Man and SM Entertainment (SM엔터테인먼트), and with their innocent image and their discography consisting of love songs, all members achieved commercial success almost immediately.

However, in 2002, SM tried to renew her contract, but all negotiations failed, and she decided to leave the agency, effectively disbanding S.E.S. The trio released the compilation album, "Beautiful Songs", in mid-2003 as their last one. They have briefly reunited a few times, most notably in 2016, to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

She moved on to Woongjin Entertainment and made her debut as a solo artist in 2003 with the album “A Day of Renew”. She remains active as a singer, vocal trainer, businesswoman and has also appeared in several musicals.

She is currently represented by Wave Nine (웨이브나인).
