It’s (not that) Complicated: YESUNG Creates Magical Moments in Singapore

Super Junior’s YESUNG spent a special Friday evening with his fans in Singapore at The Theatre at Mediacorp for his solo concert [It’s Complicated] on 28 February. His solo concert not only showcased his vocal abilities but also his genuine desire to connect with E.L.Fs in Singapore in a more personal setting.

Opening Notes: Setting the Tone

The evening began with the gentle, introspective “Small Things,” immediately establishing an atmosphere of intimacy that would define the entire concert. YESUNG followed this with “Between” and “같아 우리 (Like Us),” each song delivered with the emotional depth fans have come to expect from the K-Pop idol, who is also entering his 20th year as a member of Super Junior.

Musical Journey: Showcasing Versatility

YESUNG’s setlist demonstrated remarkable range, moving seamlessly between the atmospheric “Scented Things” and the more emotional “A Letter in The Wind”. His performance of “이렇게 우리는 (Like Us)” showcased his ability to convey complex emotions.

Fan Connection: Beyond the Stage

The concert’s concept of meeting and getting to know fans better was most evident during a standout medley of “Beautiful Night”, “Eat’s OK”, and “Pink Magic”. During “Pink Magic”, YESUNG left the stage to interact directly with audience members, creating one of the evening’s most memorable moments. Fans on the first floor got to experience his performance on a more personal level, breaking down the traditional barrier between K-Pop idols and fans.

Dynamic Performance: Medleys and Movement

The concert’s pacing was expertly crafted, with medleys like “There She Goes Again”, “Curtain”, and “Floral Sense”, creating dynamic transitions between emotional sections. Similarly, the combination of “Parallel Lines”, “Beautiful Paradox”, and “Fly 번지점프” showcased a more uplifting and inspiring side of YESUNG’s discography.

Final Notes: Leaving an Impression

As the concert approached its conclusion with “Silhouette” and closed with the poignant “Slide Away”, one couldn’t help but to also admire and commend the overall stage design. It made creative use of the lighting, projections and curtains to create different stage effects, these helped to portray the singer in a memorable setting to go along with his vocal showmanship and genuine engagement.

This concert also marks the singer’s first solo concert in Singapore, so here’s to hopefully seeing more of YESUNG in the coming years!
