Singer Sung Si Kyung praised Byeon Woo-seok's singing skills.
IU posted a video on her channel on the 23rd with the description "It's you - Byeon Woo-seok & IU."
The released video featured a duet between IU and Byeon Woo-seok. The song they chose, "It's you," is a song Sung Si Kyung released in September 2010, and at the time it drew attention for being performed with IU. The song gained great popularity and became one of Sung Si Kyung's signature songs.
IU appeared on her YouTube corner "Palette" with Byeon Woo-seok, her co-star from the MBC Friday-Saturday drama "Perfect Crown," and they sang the song together. The version of "It's you" sung by Byeon Woo-seok, not Sung Si Kyung, added a fresh charm. IU said the choice of "It's you" was "a very difficult song, so it was somewhat unexpected," and Byeon Woo-seok explained, "It's a really difficult song, but I wanted to sing a song that really fit my heart, and the lyrics fit perfectly."
In response, the original singer Sung Si Kyung himself chimed in and praised Byeon Woo-seok by leaving a comment saying "You're better than me," and also posted it on his social media. Byeon Woo-seok appeared nervous, saying "I totally messed up," but he is receiving significant attention after receiving praise from the original singer.
Earlier, Byeon Woo-seok also demonstrated outstanding skill by playing a singer in the drama "Lovely Runner," performing songs himself and reaching No. 1 on the music charts.
