My Take
Jang Hyun-seung carries the weight of a real peak, and that is why he intrigues me. Born in Suncheon in 1989, he rose to fame with Beast, who took the prestigious Daesang for Artist of the Year at the 2011 Melon Music Awards and released music in both Korean and Japanese. Crossing the language barrier to win fans abroad is no small feat. Although he is now credited as a former member, his voice helped define the group's sound during its golden run. I believe singers who have once stood at the summit bring a particular depth to their work, and his journey from a small city to the top stage is worth remembering.
