Singer Son Tae-jin appeared on ‘KBS Lunar New Year Special Trot Festival - THE COLOR’ on the 29th, showing off a stage full of the various charms of an all-round musician that crosses genres.

First, Son Tae-jin appeared wearing a blue-toned suit to celebrate the Year of the Blue House, conveying the hopeful spirit of the new year. Son Tae-jin passionately sang ‘Flower’, one of the triple title songs from his first regular album ‘SHINE’ released in October of last year, and brightly performed a serenade to a loved one, lighting up the stage.

On the following stage, Son Tae-jin, wearing a white suit, sang ‘My Way’ by legendary American singer Frank Sinatra with a large choir of 20 members. ‘My Way’ is the song that Son Tae-jin won first place for when he appeared on KBS2‘s ‘Immortal Songs’ last September and performed a heartfelt performance for ‘national actor’ Lee Soon-jae. In a screen composition that changed from black and white to color, Son Tae-jin presented another thrill with his serious voice.

In this way, Son Tae-jin showed a new side of himself as a national singer who captivates the hearts of all generations by crossing over genres such as trot, pop, and vocal music, and filled the living rooms during the Lunar New Year holiday with happiness and emotion. In particular, Son Tae-jin brightened up the Trot Festival even more with a high-quality stage that drew admiration from the scene.

Son Tae-jin announced a pleasant start to the new year by winning the Rookie of the Year award in the radio category as a DJ for MBC Standard FM’s ‘Son Tae-jin‘s Trot Radio’ at the ‘2024 MBC Entertainment Awards’ held on the 28th, and plans to continue active activities such as the encore concert of the nationwide tour in March.
