Davi and Kkondaehee's performance, 'Parting is Also Pleasant' - A Show Without Jeon Yuseong but Still With Jeon Yuseong
On the afternoon of the 22nd, comedian Kim Shin-yeong took the stage at the Ocean Hall on the 2nd floor of Bank of Korea in Busan, wearing a red hiking jacket, red skirt, climbing gear, and reflective pins in her hair. This marked the debut of Kim Shin-yeong's character, "Davi Emo," inspired by the late "Davi Emo," a trolley singer born in 1945.
Kim Shin-yeong had experienced a career resurgence through various variety shows like "MBC's 'By Myself' and JTBC's 'Aren't Yo' Uncle'," leading to the creation of the "Davi Emo's No More Tears Show" as a tribute to the late Kim Un-seong, who passed away in September 2020. The show aimed to bid farewell to Kim Un-seong with joy and laughter, featuring various characters, including Kim Un-seong's favorite, "Davi Emo."
Kim Shin-yeong explained that he pursued a career as a trolley singer after his uncle, Kim Un-seong, encouraged him to sing during their childhood. He recalled how his uncle praised his singing talent, leading to his debut in the character "Davi Emo." The performance included famous songs such as "Davi Emo" by Kim Shin-yeong and "Ijeunae" by Choi Yeo, with Kim Shin-yeong performing unique stunts like singing with his head up and voice down, captivating the audience.
The show also featured tributes to Kim Un-seong's former students and colleagues, including comedian Kim Daehui and actor Kim Jun-ho. They showcased their chemistry and entertained the audience with surprising performances, including a magic show by Kim Jung-seok and a humorous skit where Kim Jun-ho's son joined in, adding an unexpected element to the show.
