[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] JTBC's 'Begin Again Korea,' which started busking domestically due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), delivered comfort to viewers through socially distanced busking.

In the first episode of JTBC's 'Begin Again Korea,' which aired on the 6th, Lee So-ra, Henry, Suhyun, Harim, Jeokjae, Crush, and Jung Seung-hwan found places halted by COVID-19 to perform busking.

The first busking took place at Incheon International Airport, the frontline of quarantine, and the second was held at the Seoul Culture Depot as a 'Drive-in Busking' for a safe performance culture.

The members were surprised by the deserted appearance of the airport, directly impacted by COVID-19. Harim said, "Music has the power to break the silence," and wished, "I hope good things happen."

They passionately performed in the middle of Incheon Airport, selecting songs such as Harim's 'Departure,' a duet by Crush and Henry followed by all members singing 'How Deep is Your Love,' Lee So-ra and Jung Seung-hwan's 'Falling Slowly,' and Lee So-ra and Suhyun's 'Boratchit Hyanggi (Purple Scent).'

The next location was the Mapo Culture Depot, where all scheduled performances had been canceled. The audience freely responded to their music from inside their cars.

First, Suhyun and Jung Seung-hwan passionately sang 'How Can I Love the Heartbreak, You're the One I Love.' Then, Crush's 'Beautiful' was met with audience responses using hazard lights and cellphone flashlights.

Additionally, Suhyun, Henry, Crush, and Jung Seung-hwan sang 'All For You' together. Lee So-ra and Crush also passionately performed 'Blue Inside You.' Crush responded, saying, "It's ecstatic."

Henry said, "I hope everyone is happy," and they concluded the performance with 'Happy.'
