On June 24th, 4MEN guested on KBS’s ‘Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook‘ and performed a jaw-dropping cover of 2NE1’s hit track, “Lonely“.
‘89er maknae Shin Yong Jae wanted to prove that he could perform idol music that peers his age performed and chose 2NE1’s “Lonely”, a song that he always enjoyed listening to, to cover in his own style. Not only did he re-arrange “Lonely” into a ballad version, but played the piano live, melting the hearts of listeners and viewers.
When later asked what their goal for the year was, they revealed, “To win #1 on ‘Music Bank‘.” They explained, “Whenever we sing the OST for a drama, the lead male actors always end up enlisting in the army. When a drama does well, we hope to ride on that success and maybe advance into Japan, but the success stops there.”
MC Yoo Hee Yeol asked, “Do you want to advance into Japan?” to which they replied, “We still have a lot left to do in Korea, so it’s okay.”
When asked what they would like to do in Korea, they replied, “We want to win #1 on ‘Music Bank’. How do you think we can?”
Other performances on the show included SECRET and hip hop duo Rimi and Gamja. Check them out below!
