Singer Paul Kim candidly shared why he accepted a wedding song request he'd normally decline, specifically for A-list couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin, drawing widespread attention after the 'Live Wire' finale aired.
He admitted he rarely sings at weddings despite 'Meeting You' being beloved as a ceremony staple, but this time, he made an exception. According to MHN Sports reporting, the finale featured multi-artist stages and collaborations that amplified the moment's impact for viewers.
Why he said yes
Paul Kim explained that curiosity and the uniqueness of the moment led him to accept the invitation, emphasizing he genuinely wanted to attend and experience the star-studded ceremony atmosphere firsthand. He added that opportunities to meet the actors in such a setting would likely never come again, underscoring how exceptional the request felt to him.
What he performed
On stage, Paul Kim revisited 'Meeting You,' a song fans debate as either a love theme or breakup track, though he wrote it from a place of affection, leaving interpretations open to listeners. The track's resonance has long made it a wedding favourite, further spotlighted by his rare acceptance for this high-profile ceremony.
Show highlights
The 'Live Wire' finale paired Paul Kim with a lineup that spanned eras, with WOODZ, Zion.T, and god delivering crowd-pleasing sequences and duets that capped the season. Anecdotes-like WOODZ teasing Paul Kim over social media follow mishaps-added levity to the broadcast and kept the spotlight on chemistry as much as vocals. The program's closing night was widely framed as a "legend-grade finale" by entertainment outlets
