Lee Seung Gi and CNBLUE’s Jung Yong Hwa successfully revived the nostalgic “Hallyu Wave”vibe with their surprise duet of ECLIPSE’s “Sudden Shower.”
On September 16th, KBS 2TV premiered its new regular variety show, “Synchro U,”featuring an impressive MC lineup including Yoo Jae Suk, Lee Juck, SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi, AESPA’s Karina, and more.
The show’s concept focuses on distinguishing genuine singers from AI-generated vocals. The debut episode showcased a stellar assembly of top artists who successfully demonstrated a remarkable 99% synchro rate with their computer-simulated performances.
However, it was the unexpected duet featuring “Ballad Prince”Lee Seung Gi and second-gen icon Jung Yong Hwa that truly captivated the audience as they performed the hit OST “Sudden Shower”from the highly-rated 2024 K-drama “Lovely Runner.”
This song was originally performed by “Asia Prince”Byeon Woo Seok, who is known for his emotional and stunning vocals as the lead of the fictional K-pop group ECLIPSE.
This time, however, the duet exuded a heartwarming and nostalgic ambiance, enchanting viewers with their extraordinary vocals, expressive faces, and striking visuals. Prior to their reveal, some panelists speculated that their voices might belong to AI.
Following their surprise collaboration, the performance sparked extensive discussions on social media and various online platforms, with fans expressing their admiration for both artists.
