After his successful performance at AKARAKA, a viral meme of Crush, the soloist, is spreading throughout South Korea.
On May 26, Crush shared on his Instagram account about his performance at AKARAKA, the Yonsei University festival.
In the caption, Crush expressed, “I had a great time with AKARAKA for two days. Today, I filled in for Jiho. The heavy rain brought back memories from eight years ago.”
In the posted photos, Crush can be seen giving a performance despite the heavy rain. The singer’s wet hair, drenched by the downpour, caught the audience’s eye.
In November 2016, Crush gained fame for his performance in a downpour during the KBS1 “Open Concert,”which was later referred to as one of the “four major downpours in the music industry.”
During that moment, as Crush sang the song “Sometimes,”a heavy rain began to pour down. Despite the rain obstructing his vision and streaming down his face, Crush couldn’t contain his laughter while performing.
One moment that stood out in particular was when he brushed the rain off his face, and the lyrics “Why are tears coming out today?”and “Tonight is unusually cold”seemingly aligned with the current situation, resulting in a comical moment. This incident went on to become a popular meme in South Korea for several years.
Despite the heavy rain, Crush’s recent performance at AKARAKA brought back memories of his iconic meme. Many netizens are now claiming that a new photo from the event could potentially replace his 2016 meme and become a new iconic moment featuring the singer.
