[EPN Enpinow reporter Go Nari] Singer Jung In is set to appear as the original artist on the premiere of JTBC's 'Hidden Singer 8.'
Jung In has built a reputation for her rich, emotive delivery and distinctive timbre on hits like "Oreumakgil" (Uphill Road), "Jangma" (Monsoon) and "Miwo-yo" (I Hate You).
In the March 31 premiere, Jung In confidently declares, "Everyone will recognize my voice," signaling strong self-assurance ahead of the competition.
She raises the stakes for the contestants, warning, "If you can't pick my voice out, I'll quit music."
But the mood shifts when she attempts to mimic her own vocal style and appears unexpectedly thrown off.
Taken aback, Jung In admits, "I think I'm going to be eliminated," briefly flustering herself and prompting laughter across the set.
Viewers will be eager to see whether any challengers can flawlessly reproduce her tone. Those who want to compete against Jung In can apply through JTBC's official website.
Producers described Jung In as a quintessential "voice people want to mimic," saying this season will feature contestants whose performances echo her musicality and timbre.
JTBC's 'Hidden Singer 8' will air on the 31st at 8:50 p.m. KST.
