Hence, for older fans of MAMAMOO, the loss of Wheesung has left a significant impact.
Wheesung (and K.will) is the one that took part in introducing me to MAMAMOO even before their debut, through this song. I don’t really know his songs and how was his career, but one thing I know is he was an amazing singer.
