Singer Yang Hee-eun expressed her longing for her 55-year friend, the late Jeon Yu-seong, through song.

The episode of KBS 2TV's "Immortal Songs" broadcast on the 7th was structured as a tribute to the late Jeon Yu-seong, titled "Jeon Yu-seong Special Without Jeon Yu-seong." On this day, colleagues who had deep connections with the deceased during his lifetime appeared on the show to reminisce about him.

Jeon Yu-seong was a veteran comedian who contributed to the development of stand-up and open comedy in Korea.

In particular, Yang Hee-eun's performance, marking her 55-year friendship with Jeon Yu-seong, delivered a profound emotional impact.

On this day, Yang Hee-eun performed "Love, About Its Loneliness" and "Beautiful Things." With her distinctive, deeply appealing voice, Yang sang of the loneliness of love and parting, conveying her tender feelings for a friend she had shared many years with.

The subsequent performance of "Beautiful Things" also left a heavy, lingering aftertaste. The lyrics, which sing of beautiful beings that disappear one by one as time passes, brought to mind Jeon Yu-seong, who passed away before his time.

After finishing her stage performance, Yang Hee-eun shared her unique reflections, stating, "This is the first time I am singing at a place like this. Since it is the first anniversary of his passing, I wore black clothes."

She then addressed Jeon Yu-seong in heaven, saying, "Brother, are you listening? Are you watching it all from heaven?" revealing her tender longing.

Yang Hee-eun also recalled the time when she first formed a bond with the late comedian. She said, "In 1970, we saw each other's stages; Jeon Yu-seong, my senior, had just turned 20, while I was struggling to get through my teens." She added, "We are people who remember each other's youth. We remember the shining fragments of our youth."

Recalling Jeon Yu-seong's appearance during his lifetime, she candidly stated, "He was not an easy person. He was somewhat eccentric," while also revealing that he had a uniquely beautiful heart.

She recalled the late comedian's warm and generous spirit, saying, "When there was something good, he would share it all with everyone, but he never boasted about it by saying 'I gave this to you.'"

Meanwhile, Jeon Yu-seong passed away last September due to a worsening of empyema. He was 76 years old at the time of his death.
