I heard his songs immediately, and think he fits.” Li Haiying told the reporter he composed the song “Sunrise from the East” specifically for the opening ceremony, five singers symbolizing the five Olympic rings. ” Besides Wei Wei, who is the singer of last Beijing Asian Games theme song, they were looking for younger singers for the performance. Kim Hyun Joong is very handsome, and his sound condition is also very good.” Li Haiying said that he even gossiped about this South Korean young man’s age – 25 years old. “He sings with heavy R & B feels, and likes to play with his own style. There are a number of high tones, and the female-like vocal registers in the live performance, actually sung by him.” Li Haiying told the reporter, before going to Guangzhou, Kim Hyun Joong had made a rehearsal once in his Beijin’s studio.

When the reporter said Kim Hyun Joong’s Mandarin pronunciation was really a surprise, Li Haiying laughed:” Yes, I praised him in the rehearsal, said, sounded like Hong Kong singers singing the Mandarin song, everyone there just laughed. “

During the interview, Li Haiying said with emotion, South Korean artist is very professional. Not only arrived on time, but also very well prepared. “Kim Hyun Joong’s company hired a professional Chinese translation, divided each word into consonants and vowels and taught him word by word.”
