John Park: Infinite's The Golden Voice

Stranger (Baby Soul x John)

November 2011

"It has been a great while John oppa." Sujeong nicknames Baby Soul for her unique and powerful voice. She was like John in many ways. Grew up in a more conservative family,  being from Gwangju, consequently her accent can come out at times. Another thing she shares with John is her affinity for musical instruments specifically the piano. The two have been known to play various concertos together. She also shared John's taste for classic soul.

In all in all they were made for each other. There was no compatible couple quite like them. She was very more than happy when she found out John was going to be featured.

"I hear things have been going quite smoothly John oppa." Sujeong said. Her hair was quite mangled like if she wore a lion's mane.

"It certainly has. It has been a little slower than I like, but at least we're getting some recognition. I'm getting the hang of the dance choreography a little more." John said in satisfaction.

"How do you feel about singing a duet with me?" Sujeong said, already knowing the answer.

"Excited of course! It's been way too long since we sang a proper duet. Out voices mesh well together. It's like we're the perfect people to duet." John said.

"For that I wholeheartedly agree. We share almost the same style of singing. For someone who has a deep voice, it's quite refreshing to see you hit those high notes. I think you're made a lot more than just being an idol." Sujeong said with a gentle smile. One things John loved was her mole even though she gets conscious about it. He wasn't the type to judge plus it suited her well.

"Perhaps so. I may get more solo opportunities next year. Jongyeop-nim has been putting me with more vocal roles. Who knows I might sing drama OSTs like Seungi sunbae!" John said with a hopeful smile.

"I have no doubts you will. You are just incredible like that. Enough about this we should probably get this started I hope you're ready oppa?" Sujeong said.

"For you always." John said as they began to sing.

The song marks Sujeong's debut as a solo artist. With her exceptional vocals, it would be a waste to not use it. So Jongyeop paired her with his secret weapon, John Park for a soulful duet. The video shows a couple about to end their relationship. The man is running away in an attempt to dodge the incoming pain. The tone was bittersweet and filled with pajn
