Trot powerhouse TotalSet's Lee Su-yeon showcased her presence as Korea's representative trot prodigy.
Lee Su-yeon appeared in the first-round main battle on MBN's King of Singers 3, which aired on the 13th. Having chosen "Doraji Flower" on the preliminary stage and received a first all-in judgment, marking herself as the youngest with formidable skill, Lee Su-yeon targeted enka prodigy Akiyama Saki that day.
Creating a Korea-Japan prodigy showdown, Lee Su-yeon took the lead with Jeong Ui-song's "You, sir." Before the stage, Lee Su-yeon showed her characteristic innocent expression and smile; the moment the intro played, her gaze flipped 180 degrees, and with an explosive vocal power that belied her age of 11, she drew deep emotion from the judges and fellow contestants watching.
On Lee Su-yeon's stage, Lee Ji Hye said, "I think the inexplicable resonance in my chest is art. Even at a young age, I felt that Lee Su-yeon is doing art, which made my chest ache and tears flow. But if there's something to feel a bit disappointed about with Su-yeon, it's that the listeners are crying while Su-yeon is smiling. She possesses the power and charm to move others with music without being consumed by her own sadness," and did not spare praise.
Lee Su-yeon overcame the language barrier and achieved a landslide victory over Akiyama Saki, who passionately sang "Broken Wall Clock," securing advancement to the second round of the main competition. Following her first all-in judgment and her win in the Korea-Japan prodigy showdown, Lee Su-yeon once again proved her true worth and solidified her position as a strong contender for the championship.
