High school participant Song Ji-woo received rave reviews for her unique vocal tone on the SBS entertainment program 'Our Ballad'.
During the first round of finals aired on the 23rd, Song Ji-woo's performance became a hot topic. On that day, she confessed, "I usually don’t get to perform much and have only sung in YouTube videos; this time, I gathered enough courage to come out here."
While watching this unfold, Mimi asked, "Do you ever hear that you resemble NewJeans' Hani?" Startled, Song Ji-woo replied, "I heard it once, but I don't agree with it." She then captivated the audience by selecting Lee Eun-ha's 'The Look You Gave Me With a Smile'.
As soon as Song Ji-woo sang the first line, the judges were swept away by waves of emotion. Crush exclaimed, "Wow~ That’s so good!" while Jung Jae-hyung remarked, "It sounds like a recording studio here." Jung Seung-hwan also added, "I really like how shy she looks," falling for Song Ji-woo's stage presence.
Ultimately, Song Ji-woo received unanimous approval from all nine judges with 143 out of 150 votes. Crush praised her performance, stating, "That was the best stage I've seen so far," and Jeon Hyun-moo expressed agreement, saying, "Even as a non-expert, I think it’s great."
Meanwhile, SBS 'Our Ballad' airs every Tuesday at 9 PM.
