LIGHTSUM announced the birth of an emotionally rich ballad song. Today (15th), LIGHTSUM's Sunah, Chowon, and Juhyun released the digital single 'Beautiful Yet Sad.' Along with this, they released a live clip of the song through their official YouTube channel, gaining attention as the first unit since their debut. LIGHTSUM, which has been loved for its energetic music and performances, showcases a different brilliance through the unit consisting of Sunah, Chowon, and Juhyun. Especially led by the skilled vocalist Chowon, the addition of Sunah and Juhyun's emotionally rich voices embarks on a 'rediscovery of LIGHTSUM' centered on vocals. Sunah, Chowon, and Juhyun, who each serve as rapper, main vocalist, and dancer in LIGHTSUM, recorded over 8 million views with their cover of the OST 'Golden' from the Netflix movie 'KPOP Girls! Demon Hunters' released last year, already being evaluated as a 'trustworthy combination.' The three members, who have shown new possibilities, deliver a profound aftertaste with this ballad. The new single released by Sunah, Chowon, and Juhyun reinterprets BTOB's representative hit 'Beautiful Yet Sad.' It blends the deep aftertaste of the original song with LIGHTSUM's delicate sensibilities through acoustic guitar melodies. Attention is focused on whether LIGHTSUM's version of 'Beautiful Yet Sad,' which conveys warm comfort in the cold winter, will succeed in hitting again following the original. LIGHTSUM's first unit, Sunah, Chowon, and Juhyun, released the digital single 'Beautiful Yet Sad' today at 6 PM through various music streaming sites.
