The final idol in my ultimate Top 3 is Ha Sungwoon, main vocal in both his group, Hotshot, and the temporary group he’s currently active in, Wanna One. I’ve often seen W1 assumed to be a group with no talent, as one who consists of people who were voted into that group only because of their looks and personalities. But in fact they have some really good dancers, as well as a great vocal line, full of distinct vocal tones and several really good singers, especially Sungwoon, who is both a technically skilled as well as emotional singer ^^
He also composes and writes songs, but whereas Hotshot’s agency gives their artists pretty much free reins, W1’s agency let members do nothing in terms of music, despite several of them actually being used to composing and writing songs, so I guess all those songs they’ve been writing won’t be released until after they disband *scowls at Swing Ent.*

This is a unit song from their latest album, it was written/composed/produced by Nell and sung by Sungwoon, Minhyun and Jisung (main, lead and sub vocal in OT11 W1). And well, I just really love it, especially the build up by the end. The entire last minute is just gorgeous ^^
The vid doesn’t show it, but all the adlibs were done by Sungwoon 😊

        Kimon ? sorry I don’t know the ref”
        I’m not that into dance, it’s just that your post mentions “really good dancers” + “Hotshot” reminded me of how I loved Shape of you dance video in P101 s2 ^^

          Ahh sorry, Kimon = Kid Monster = Roh Taehyun = Noh Taehyun = Taehyun. Kid Monster name came from back in his streetdancing days and used to be his stage name in Hotshot, he just changed it back to his original name cos he had to use it in P101 and it’s the name he got known with, so now he stuck with it 🙂

          Hehehe yep, Shape of You was really good!
          I personally love a good dancer/choreo, it makes me all envious, cos I may have rhythm, but I ain’t go no body coordination skills lol!

    Kaybeeeee I love love this! Should have really listened to it long back when you shared it!
    And is it just me or was Woon given all the key parts?
    I have said this before but I really love Jisung’s voice! All 3 boys did so well!

      YAY!!!!!!!! *happy bean* 😃😃

      Yup he was lol. After listening to the song like once, he randomly started harmonizing with the chorus and they were surprised and all “this was really good!” and then he sang the chorus on his own and was all “ahh I have a cold, so it might not sound good”, but they were like “this is you with a COLD??” haha, they totally fell for his voice ^^ They actually didn’t add the adlibs until after they heard him sing ^^ My faves loving my fave is the best thing ever hehe.

      Jisung does have such a lovely tone and is actually a techincally more skilled singer than some of their lead vocals, so I’m kind of sad he’s just a sub and usually doesn’t get many lines. But he shone so much here, yay!!!
      And yes, they all did really well, their voices and emotions all fit these kind of songs so well ^^ *the loud, but secretly super sentimental parental unit of W1 will forever be my fave hahaha*
