Former H.O.T members Moon Hee Jun and Tony An brought out smiles from old-school K-Pop fans when they performed “Candy” together for a Lunar New Year’s special!
The boys participated in MBC’s ‘Idol Alkkagi Championships’, which aired on January 22nd.
“Candy” was released in 1996 as H.O.T.’s debut song. Its cute, infectious melody and gimmick-infused choreography introduced the genre of ‘idol pop’ that’s now so prevalent in K-Pop.
For their performance, Moon Hee Jun and Tony An linked up with Boyfriend’s Donghyun and Kwang Min as well as Super Junior’s Shindong. The collaboration between two K-Pop veterans and three of the industry’s hottest idols drew a wild response from the audience.
Another ’90s hit that got revived on the show was Roo’ra‘s “Angel Who Lost Their Wings“. Roo’ra members Go Young Wook and Kim Ji Hyun performed their famous song with miss A’s Min and Noel’s Kang Kyun Sang.
