Yunseong turns the stage around and becomes the queen of high notes
KBS2's 'Immortal Songs', which aired on the 28th, featured a special feature called 'Heavenly High Note Ender' and featured Jinju, Shin Young-sook, Bada, Yunseong, Big Mama's Park Min-hye, and Lee Bo-ram.
On this day's broadcast, Jinju opened with the first stage. Jinju selected Yoon Bok-hee's 'Everyone' and filled the stage with weight. Jinju started off seriously and heavily at the beginning of the stage, leading to a heightened atmosphere towards the end.
Jinju drew attention by skillfully controlling the pitch of the melody. Yunseong commented, “I thought you were an expert. You showed a technique suitable for heavenly high notes.” Park Min-hye praised, "I've been watching since 'I'm Okay', but today's performance has a different depth. It's A+." Lee Bo-ram said, “I think I set a new Olympic world record.”
The second stage is Shin Young-sook. He selected 'Dream of a Goose' and displayed a voice as elegant and hopeful as his ambition to "show you how geese fly." The high-pitched voice he shouted, ‘I have a dream,’ touched the hearts of many audience members and elicited exclamations. Bada said, "It was cool to go on stage in the form of a female warrior. I'm learning from it." Yunseong expressed his admiration, saying, “Park Wan-gyu said that rockers don’t need to be humble, but I think I need to be humble. I think I need to kneel.” Shin Young-sook beat Jinju and won 1 game.
For the third time, Bada came on stage and sang ‘Maria’. Bada delivered a message of comfort to the audience with her unique positive energy and delivered refreshing high notes. Bada surprised everyone by performing the choreography and performing high notes without shaking while jumping. The waiting room for the talk on the stage by the sea exclaimed, “It has become a sea of fire.” Lee Bo-ram said, “The fairy is not tired. She is alive.” Shin Young-sook defeated Bada and won her second win.
Yunseong filled the fourth stage with Park Wan-gyu's 'A Thousand Years of Love'. Yunseong sang 'A Thousand Years of Love', which was full of high notes, a few keys higher even after changing to a female key. Yunseong showed off the essence of a sharp and fierce rocker high note. In particular, when performing high notes followed by guitar sounds, he exudes strong charisma. In response, Jinju expressed, "It's not for nothing. My back pain has disappeared, and I feel like I've received manual therapy." Yun Seong won 1 victory over Shin Young-sook, who had 2 wins.
Following Yoonseong, Big Mama Park Minhye appeared on the fifth stage. Park Min-hye, who selected IU's 'Good Day', performed 'Good Day' with her own feeling and voice. The highlight, the 3rd stage treble part, was transformed into a 5th stage treble, producing a clean and uncluttered high note. Shin Young-sook made everyone laugh by saying, “No oppa would be able to reject such a confession.” Lee Bo-ram, who had to face Park Min-hye, expressed her burden, saying, "It feels like I've been injected with vitamin fluid, but I don't want to wake up." Yunseong won twice with more votes than Park Minhye.
The last stage went to Lee Bo-ram. Lee Bo-ram decorated the finale with Sumi Jo's 'When I Go'. Lee Bo-ram said, “I wanted to sing this song at least once,” and poured out all her strength, suppressing her sincerity. The high-pitched, sobbing-like voice overwhelmed the stage, befitting the description of sobbing high notes. Shin Young-sook said, “I played the role of Empress Myeongseong, and knowing how she felt made me emotional.”
The final winner was Yunseong, who turned the stage around with his rocker's powerful high notes. Yunseong succeeded in winning 3 times, holding the final trophy in his arms and enjoying the joy of his first win in ‘Immortal Song’.
