I love listening to music. I put on earphones almost the whole day whenever I have time. There are so many artists and musicians I love. In pop, 'My chemical romance' , 'Tayler Swift', 'Kelly Clarkson' and 'Maroon 5' are my favorites. What I want to recommend to you, however, is about a singer in Korea.
Some of you might have heard about 'Psy' or his hit song 'Gangnam style'. But most of you might not have heard about 'Kim Yeon Woo'. He is one of the best vocalist in Korea, but he was not well known to people before he made an appearance on the TV show called 'I Am a Singer'. That show is now gone, but once it had a great rating in Korea. It was a survial show about singers. Seven singers prepare performances, and the audience votes for the best singer in that show. The singer with the lowest vote is eliminated. Kim entered the show, and it is sad to say, he dropped out in the very first show. However, he made a legendary video, and after that, everyone in Korea realized him as a great vocalist. The You Tube video above is the one that made him famous. The name of the song is "If Like Me" and is one of my favorites, and also one of the most popular songs in Korea.
There is one more great song by 'Kim Yeon Woo', which is 'Can't Hate You'. In the video above, he in wearing a black mask. That is because that show is called 'King of Masked Singer', and all the people sing a song with a mask on in order to hide their identity. The original singer of that song, in 1995, was BANK and Kim re-made it. His vocal is so clean and stable. He also has power to touch the audience as well. Just in my opinion, this song is so attachable to his voice, and that made this performance much better.
I know you do not know much about Korean music but, I would appreciate it if you listen carefully to these two songs that I love so much.
