It's already been almost 5 years since we sang ‘Don’t Cross Your Legs’ in front of you.. We, who thought were going to be young forever, are already adult singers. I know that there is a long journey in front of us but, I’m very thankful to take our first step with K-Pop Star and YG Entertainment! I’m currently in Cebu for a shoot but many people here recognize us. It feels as though our dreams have become bigger since being able to be part of a journey that hundreds of thousand people wanted. Great job until the last season and congratulations. Thank you Mr. Chairman! Only walk flowery roads :)

Message from Suhyun (right)

Congratulations for the last 6 years ㅠㅠ 

Thank you for discovering us and it feels weird for me that K-Pop Star has ended but I bet it feels weirder for you Mr. CEO ㅠㅠ We will work harder to build you a first floor in YG’s new building. Thank you always and I love you

​Message from Winner's Lee SeungHoon (Translation from Winner Facebook Account)

I really can’t explain the emotions I am feeling from the times that have passed whether it is overflowing happiness or not but I really want to thank you for making this golden opportunity possible for someone like me Mr. Chairman.

It feels really weird for me too that K-Pop Star is over… I really want to thank you and the program that made me the person I am today. You really worked hard! 

You were the best teacher and mentor of countless contestants

For 6 years, Yang Hyun Suk, along with the other agencies have continuously searched for extraordinary talents from Kpop Star. Eventually, they have fulfilled their promises not only to support and debut these past finalists from Survival Audition program but also to hone their talents, bring out their potentials and make them the best as they can be.
