The live stage of Lim Young-woong's new song ‘Melody for You’, which is gaining attention for being written and composed by singer Roy Kim, will be unveiled for the first time on ‘Immortal Songs’.
KBS2’s ‘Immortal Songs’ (directed by Park Hyung-geun, Kim Hyung-seok, Choi Seung-beom) special ‘Lim Young-woong and Friends’ is receiving praise as Lim Young-woong's first solo special, featuring friends who accompany him on his musical journey to create a unique stage.
Part 1 achieved a nationwide rating of 6.8% and 6.2% in the metropolitan area, dominating the time slot and raising expectations for the upcoming Part 2 broadcast. (According to Nielsen Korea)
In this context, Lim Young-woong brings up his musical friend Roy Kim with the keyword ‘first kiss’. The two collaborated for the first time musically, with Roy Kim writing and composing Lim Young-woong's new song ‘Melody for You’ from his second album.
Lim Young-woong jokingly said, “We kissed once in a while while working together,” and Roy Kim chimed in, “It felt good to kiss,” eliciting laughter.
Roy Kim then revealed, “The song ‘Melody for You’ was born from Young-woong asking me to write a song like ‘Spring Spring Spring’,” adding, “From the first recording, it felt like this song was not originally mine but rather Young-woong's song. He sang it so well.”
Thus, the stage for ‘Melody for You’, the first collaboration between Lim Young-woong and Roy Kim, will be revealed for the first time. Moreover, composer Roy Kim will take the stage himself to present a special collaboration, which is expected to elicit enthusiastic reactions from the audience, raising anticipation for Lim Young-woong's new song stage in the broadcast.
Additionally, on this day, Lim Young-woong and Roy Kim will showcase a special performance where they respect each other's musical worlds by singing each other's songs. This has drawn attention to the unique collaborative stage of Lim Young-woong and Roy Kim that cannot be seen anywhere else.
Meanwhile, the ‘Lim Young-woong and Friends’ special features friends who were directly invited by Lim Young-woong and willingly joined the special. Following the heartfelt performances from Lee Jeok, No Brain, and Jeon Jong-hyuk in Part 1 last week, Part 2 will feature Lin, Roy Kim, Jo Jae-ju, and Choi Yu-ri, delivering a comprehensive gift set-like stage and diverse stories to the home audience.
