SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan included unseen pictures of the late ASTRO's Moonbin in his recent cover video for Choi Yu-ree's Shape
As an annual tradition, SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan uploads a song cover on his birthday for his fans in return for everything that the fans do to celebrate his special day. This year, on January 16, the idol uploaded a cover of Korean singer-songwriter Choi Yu-ree's track Shape.
He also added a new twist to it by compiling videos of his close relations, including his family, SEVENTEEN members, his other K-pop idols friends, etc. Naturally, given the strong bond that Moonbin and Seungkwan shared, many clips of the duo's shared memories were also included in the cover music video.
Upon viewing the never-before-seen clips of ASTRO's Moonbin, many fans were left emotional. Moonbin, who was a K-pop singer, actor, and dancer, unfortunately passed away on April 19, 2023, after choosing to take his own life.
Seungkwan was also seen taking a break from his promotional schedules after the idol's death, which was naturally expected from fans given the close relationship the two shared and showcased.
The idol remembered and honored his friendship with Moonbin by including him in his cover music video for Choi Yu-ree's Shape. ASTRO fans, upon seeing the music video, rushed in to express their gratitude towards the SEVENTEEN member for continuing to cherish the late K-pop idol and their friendship.
On the other hand, fans also loved the idol's cover of Choi Yu-ree's Shape and commended him for his moving vocal skills that continue to impress the listeners. Additionally, the idol also received a bundle of birthday wishes on January 16.
