Flower Boy Band Y2K 40s Current Status… Confession of Tears for the First Time in 23 Years(Korea-Japan Top Ten Show)
The icon of the millennium era’s pretty boy band, Y2K, is back.They will perform a full group stage for the first time in 23 years on MBN ‘Korea-Japan Top Ten Show’.
‘Korea-Japan Top Ten Show’ is a ‘music entertainment show’ where active Korean and Japanese national singers come out and perform hidden masterpieces from both Korea and Japan, ranging from trot to K -pop and J -pop, and engage in a fierce battle of famous songs.Episode 49, which will air on the 13th(today), will feature a ‘Reply 1999’ special where the ‘Active King of Singers 1’ team and the ‘Active King of Singers 2’ team will compete with hit songs from the late 1990s to early 2000s, including Y2K.
In relation to this, the three members of Y2K, Ko Jae-geun, Yuichi, and Koji, were a hot topic for their pretty boy visuals with long hair.Regarding sticking to the pretty boy band style with long hair, Ko Jae-geun explains the background of causing a long hair fever among men despite the fact that it was a time when there were regulations on long hair, saying, “At that time, people who did rock music and rock bands all had long hair.”
Japanese member Yuichi confesses that his unique pronunciation of Korean lyrics is still talked about to this day, and that “it was really hard singing Korean lyrics.When we were practicing ‘After Breaking Up,’ they told us to do it again several times, and Koji and I shed a lot of tears.” He honestly confesses that he shed blood, sweat, and tears because of the difficult Korean language.Y2K then performs their hit song ‘BAD, ‘ which brings back the millennial sentiment of the 90s.
Meanwhile, Jeon Yu-jin and Shin Seung-tae engage in a tight match in a high-note showdown that is fitting for a special episode of ‘Reply 1999’.Jeon Yu-jin surprises everyone by demonstrating that her secret to clearing her throat is making ultrasonic sounds like a dolphin, saying, “My nickname is Pohang Dolphin.” Shin Seung-tae, in response, introduces a special way to clear his throat based on his experience singing Gyeonggi folk songs, saying, “I’m a crazy wild horse.” Jeon Yu-jin and Shin Seung-tae, who excel at high notes, chose Rumors ‘’Storm’ and Kim Hyun-jung’s ‘Mung’ respectively, and as they engage in a fiery showdown, who will win the high-note showdown with a refreshing shouting like a storm?
Among them, Enoch, the eldest member and the most senior member of ‘Current King of Singers 2’, is showing his anger unlike his usual affectionate and gentle self ahead of the ‘MZ Battle’.Enoch vents his anger by saying, “MZ is defined by the dictionary as people born in 1980 to 2010.” People are curious to know how the ‘MZ controversy’ that Enoch suddenly started will end and whether Enoch will be able to be recognized as an MZ member.
The production team said, “Thanks to Y2K visiting the ‘Korea-Japan Top Ten Show,’ a place for musical exchange that transcends not only the borders between Korea and Japan, but also generations and time has been completed,” and asked, “Please look forward to the various behind-the-scenes stories of current artists who reminisce about the millennium era and an unprecedented scene where they will compete with hit songs from that era.”
MBN ‘Korea-Japan Top Ten Show’ Episode 49, which will stimulate memories and nostalgia of the millennium era, will air at 9:50 PM on the 13th(today).
