Sung Si Kyung Proves Timeless Voice With His New and Old Songs

Celebrating the 23rd anniversary of his debut, Sung Si Kyung left a strong presence on domestic music charts in 2023.

Not only his new songs but also his old songs were re-examined through major social networking services (SNS) such as YouTube and Instagram, showing that he was as active as he was in his prime.

Her new single “Duet With Naul”, released by Sung Si Kyung 2 years and 5 months after her 8th regular album Siot (ㅅ), ranked first on Melon’s Real-time Hot 100 and peaked at #14 on the daily chart. Although two months have passed since its release, it continues to be popular by entering the top 50 on the monthly (21st), weekly (45th), and daily (43rd) charts (as of 10 a.m. on the 29th).

In addition, Lee Hi’s fifth single “Alley”, in which he was featured, ranked at number 33 on the Melon Daily chart. The music video achieved some success, including 480,000 views and 79th place on YouTube’s weekly popularity ranking (counting period December 15-21).

In addition, Sung Si Kyung succeeded in making a comeback as his personal YouTube channel’s content, ‘Sung Si-kyung Song’, was loved by all age groups.

In particular, the SBS My Love from the Star OST “Every Moment of You”, released in February 2014, not only ranked 35th in Melon’s real-time top 100, but also ranked 20th daily, 27th weekly, and 28th monthly, and is still on listeners’ playlists even after 9 years.

As the end of the year approached, his winter season song “Because It’s Christmas” with members of her former agency Jellyfish Entertainment also showed a steady rise in rankings, reaching number 12 on Melon’s weekly chart. The real-time top 100 ranking was 64th, the second highest among reverse carols after EXO’s ‘First Snow’.

Sung Si Kyung, who has proven his potential, will meet his fans at the 2023 Sung Si-kyung Year-End Concert at KSPO DOME (former gymnastics stadium) in Seoul Olympic Park from the 29th to the 31st. He will then be the MC for the 38th Golden Disk Awards with Mandiri with Cha Eun-woo on January 6.
