Taeyeon and Henry Express Excitement for Singer No. 28 on 'Sing Again 4'; Composer of Kim Gun-mo's 'Forbidden Love' Revealed

On the second episode of JTBC's music reality show 'Sing Again 4,' aired on the 21st, singers Taeyeon and Henry couldn't hide their excitement over singer No. 28's performance.

Singer No. 22, a veteran with 34 years in the industry, made a surprise appearance. Known for singing the OST of a drama that garnered a 56% viewership rating, this singer also shocked the panel by revealing they composed Kim Gun-mo's hit song 'Forbidden Love.' Despite facing personal hardships that led to a hiatus, their desire to make music again brought them to 'Sing Again 4,' but their advancement was put on hold.

Next up was singer No. 28, a former member of the boy group Q.O.Q, who introduced himself as an 'accidental ballad singer.' He shared that he was in a state of semi-retirement due to practical issues, parting ways with music temporarily. However, his enduring love for singing and desire to perform led him to participate in the show.

His performance of the OST for the drama 'Let's Go To School, Sangdoo!' earned him 'all again' from the judges. Code Kunst expressed his delight, mentioning it was the only drama OST he watched completely. Taeyeon commented, "I felt fluttered listening to the song. I couldn't help but press the button." Henry was mesmerized, stating, "I think we found Season 4's 'ear boyfriend'" and praised his distinct color and stable tone, saying it "deeply moved" him. Kim Eana marveled, "I found a treasure in an OST," while Lim Jae-bum acknowledged his talent as a potential 'reverse run' hit.

Netizens are buzzing about the singer's talent and past works. Comments include, "No. 28's voice is truly amazing," "I can't believe he was the OST singer! I'm just discovering him now," and "Seeing Taeyeon and Henry so excited makes me look forward to it too."
