[Edaily Starin YUN GI BACK Reporter] “Our Ballad 2” showcases contestants who possess not only vocal talent but also stage presence and star power.

Moon Geun-young (Photo: SBS “Our Ballad 2”) The upcoming episode of SBS’s “Our Ballad 2,” airing on the 12th, features contestants from diverse backgrounds—ranging from a girl who studied abroad in Texas to a soldier competing to uphold the honor of his unit. The show also features a selection of songs that span generations, including Lee Sang-eun’s 1993 track “Someday” and “High Fever,” released by the Yoo Da-bin Band in 2019. In particular, one male contestant captures the attention of the “Top Back-Gui” judges with his handsome looks and composed stage presence. Moon Geun-young, unable to hide her smile as she watches the performance, reveals her fan side by saying, “I won’t let my husband see this,” while Joo Woo-jae reacts with, “Do you want to see someone go crazy?” Roy Kim and Jung Seung-hwan also refer to themselves as “visual balladeers” and add to the laughter by empathizing with the contestant, saying, “It’s hard to be recognized for your talent rather than your looks.” The contestant’s star power—which transformed the studio into a fan meeting with just one song—is expected to be a major highlight of the show. Another contestant evokes memories of the past with a clear and distinctive voice. After listening to the performance, Joo Woo-jae comments, “My ideal type is someone who sings like this contestant.” All eyes are on whether “Our Ballad 2” will be able to discover new faces who possess not only talent and vocal tone but also the charm to captivate the public. “Our Ballad 2” airs on the 12th at 10 p.m.
