Singer Lee Seung-ki appeared in a happy mood after winning on "Immortal Songs."
On the 30th, Lee Seung-ki secured the final victory on the 758th episode of "Immortal Songs" with his male version of "We Could Have Been Friends," receiving high praise from the original artist, Gummy.
The broadcast that day was themed as "Part 1: Composer Kim Do-hoon." This special featured Park Hyun-kyu, Gummy, S.E.S., Psykuss, and Lee Seung-ki reinterpreting iconic K-pop hits from the 2000s.
The first performance was Park Hyun-kyu, who selected Lee Seung-ki's "Will You Marry Me?" Park Hyun-kyu said, "Composer Kim Do-hoon is the father of my music who made my debut possible. I am deeply moved," and opened the stage with a sweet proposal scene. Park Hyun-kyu's solid vocal ability and a touch of emotion painted the stage in pink. Midway through the performance, Park Hyun-kyu surprised the audience by handing out a single rose, drawing explosive cheers.
Gummy took the stage second with S.E.S.'s "Just A Feeling." Gummy offered a fresh twist with a jazz arrangement that differed from the original's clear, fairy-like vibe. Her captivating vocals and hip jazz sound created a perfect synergy, captivating everyone. Although Gummy nearly missed the stage due to poor physical condition, she showcased her emergency room resilience, proving herself as an irreplaceable vocalist. The original artist, Bada, even led the entire audience to give a standing ovation, heating up the atmosphere. Gummy won the first round.

The third performance was by S.E.S., who performed Ailee's "I'll Show You," delivering thrilling shivers from the very beginning. The trio perfectly executed their unique harmony and powerful choreography, signaling the return of the original vocal goddesses. S.E.S. demonstrated their peak-level skills, making it hard to believe they had reunited after 15 years. In the second round, Gummy secured her second consecutive victory, continuing her dominant run.
Next, Psykuss took the stage with Hwasa's "Idiot." Psykuss completely dominated the stage with a wild rock spirit unlike the original. Their dynamic dance performance filled the stage, overwhelming the live audience's energy. Lee Chan-won remarked, "You're going to Coachella soon," giving a thumbs-up in admiration. Gummy won the third round as well.
Finally, Lee Seung-ki took the stage with Gummy's "We Could Have Been Friends." Lee Seung-ki stirred emotions with his uniquely expressive voice. He delicately expressed the poignant feeling of a breakup from a man's perspective, reinterpreting the song with his own distinctive style. The explosive high notes and emotional intensity in the latter half left a different lingering impression compared to the original. Even the original artist, Gummy, praised him, saying, "Among all the male singers who have performed this song, you are the best. You interpreted it so beautifully." As a result, Lee Seung-ki blocked Gummy's sweep in the final round and won the overall championship.
On that day, Lee Seung-ki posted a photo of himself holding his eldest daughter on his personal account, sharing a video with the caption, "A happier victory after receiving tons of kisses from my daughter. Thank you." The released video showed him holding his daughter while watching "Immortal Songs," capturing viewers' attention. Lee Da-in, who is pregnant with their second child, also shared the video on her SNS, leaving a heart emoji.
