Singer Yu Seong-eun is receiving a strong response for a remake that adds a deep resonance to a classic song of the era.
Yu Seong-eun released the remake single 'Beautiful Parting' at 6 p.m. on the 9th and is receiving praise for targeting winter parting emotions with her "K-soul" vocals.
This single, which reinterprets Kim Gun-mo's classic with Yu Seong-eun's unique sensibility, features a piano melody filled with stories, string arrangements that expand the emotions, and technical grooves that together bring out an emotion different from the original. The high-quality arrangement and vocal interpretation drew listeners' attention immediately after release, landing at No. 13 on Genie's latest release chart (1 week) on the 10th (as of 9 a.m.) and No. 28 on Melon HOT100 (30 days) (as of 8 a.m.), among other major music charts.
Earlier, Yu Seong-eun revealed the work process on her official YouTube channel and expressed deep respect for the original. Yu Seong-eun said, "While leaving as much of the original's aftertaste as possible, I tried singing it anew with the feelings I felt," and explained the remake's points: "If (senior Kim Gun-mo) had the charm of casually tossing lines, I expressed the emotions without hiding them." She added a warm message: "I pressed my sincerity down tightly. I hope it brings comfort and empathy."
Yu Seong-eun's sincere vocals and meticulous expressiveness sharpen the feeling of parting and captivate listeners' hearts. Hot responses continue, saying, "the emotional range that only Yu Seong-eun can express," "a vocal tone suited to winter," and "an interpretation that makes you look at the original again."
Meanwhile, Yu Seong-eun plans to continue steady communication with fans through various content, starting with the remake single 'Beautiful Parting'.
