Recently, JYJ's XIA JunSu returned to public broadcast for the first time in a very long while with his appearance on the competition reality show "Double Trouble". Not only did it mark a special moment for fans of XIA JunSu, but also a point of change for the Korean entertainment industry at large.
XIA JunSu had not appeared on a TV station broadcast for a painfully long time but he never stopped making incredible art for a moment in his career. From sold-out shows to musicals and album releases, XIA JunSu has been dominating the world of art and entertainment even without broadcasts. For him to return to the limelight and with such a bang, is truly a historical moment and a win for the industry.
In "Double Trouble", XIA JunSu teamed up with HyoLyn for a performance of "Coming Of Age Ceremony", the iconic song originally by Park JiYoon, reworking it in their own signature styles, giving it an even sultrier alt-rock twist that rebirthed the song and honoured it at the same time. Needless to say, the striking charisma and charm of the artists, coupled with their unrivaled visuals and talent created an unforgettable and incomparable performance on stage.
From the unshakeable vocals to the alluring choreography, this 'Coming Of Age Ceremony' is unlike anything we've seen before. Here's how fans reacted to the performance and XIA JunSu's return!
