Wink performs 'Mapo Jongjeom' in pure white dress on Golden Oldies (TV program)

The twin trot duo Wink delivered the deep, soulful essence of traditional Korean music on KBS1's 'Golden Oldies (TV program)'. Comprising Kang Ju-hee and Kang Seung-hee, Wink appeared on the 1,958th episode of 'Golden Oldies (TV program)', featuring the 'July Request Songs' special, which aired on the 27th.

Taking the stage, Wink appeared in matching pure white dresses adorned with delicate lace and pearl decorations. Their styling, complete with neatly pulled-back hair and glamorous hair accessories, highlighted the duo's elegant aura. The song chosen by Wink was 'Mapo Jongjeom', released in 1968 by the Silver Bell Sisters, which earned nationwide love. Wink interpreted this song—which captures the sorrowful longing for a departed lover against the backdrop of the vanished Mapo streetcar terminus—with their signature soulful vocals.

As a twin duo that has worked together for a long time, their harmonies were seamless. Based on their stable vocal abilities, Wink filled the stage with the lyrical atmosphere of 'Mapo Jongjeom'. Having previously captivated the public with bright and cheerful energy through songs like 'Bukkeu Bukkeu', 'Eolssu', and 'Atta Gogeotcham', Wink showcased a calm and mature sensibility on this stage. Their ability to convey poignant emotions through restrained expression left a lasting impression on viewers.

In addition to Wink, the broadcast featured talented singers spanning generations, including Bae Il-ho, Kim Yong-im, Su Wa-jin, Choi Jin-hee, Jang Eun-sook, Bae Ah-hyeon, Pung-geum, Bin Ye-seo, Ji Won-i, and Kim Mu-jin, all performing sets tailored to the theme of 'July Request Songs'.

Since debuting in the music industry in 2008 with 'Cheonsaengyeonbun', Wink has consistently enjoyed the love of trot fans. They continue to engage in various performances and broadcast activities, including the release of 'Haengbok-ui Saemteo' last year.

Wink will continue their activities through various stages and broadcasts. From their cheerful energy to the calm sensibility shown on this stage, fans are eagerly looking forward to the duo's next performance as they continue their wide-ranging musical journey.
