1. ‘LO$ER=LO♡ER’
The charisma YeonJun exudes on stage is like no other. His appeal is simply magical and enchanting. We can’t say there is one particular concept that YeonJun excels in the most as he slays them all but on this stage, there is a level of fire burning through his veins that makes him look so good. From his outfits to his facial expressions, his powerful, raw, yet so clean dance moves, and his stunning visuals, we can say this performance is the right way to start this listicle as it brilliantly captures the meaning behind the title “A Bonafide Entertainer”.
2. “2020 SBS Music Awards”
4 mins 34 secs of pure excellence. And yes, we included the cute opening seconds too because how he switches from adorable kitten to ferocious tiger in a split of seconds is quite incredible. His eyes! Don’t stare too long or you might burn from the fiery flames they exude. Glaring with so much passion, his eyes alone tell you how dedicated he is to his performances. One thing that attracts many to YeonJun and why he actually stands out from other idols is, that when he is performing, you can tell he is truly enjoying himself. Even if it’s his 1st time or his 100th time performing a particular song, his energy is always at 110% as he understands that if he is enjoying it, his audience will too.
3. ‘PUMA’
It is without a doubt that YeonJun knows and understands the power his appeal holds over his fans and audience and this stage proves just that. Every movement, every twist, every flip, every expression sends shock waves of excitement, thrill, and desire down the spines of his viewers. Speaking of his movements, YeonJun’s stamina and body control are quite remarkable. The way he moves his body with so much precision and grace even while doing a very difficult dance move perhaps speaks to his devotion to his art and consistent practice. With his hard work, doing such moves almost feels like a natural action for him now and that alone should be appreciated.

Watching YeonJun perform could be the same feeling as watching a magic show as you are left in wonder of the unbelievable experience you just witness. Oh, how he moves! His extensions are immaculate. He moves with so much clarity and cleanness that makes his performance feel like watching art. The music is the painter and YeonJun’s movements are the strokes, emoting every single thing, in clear details, that it wants us to see and feel. Filled with so much dexterity with his performance, YeonJun shows that with his performances, he can give you the soft and refreshing sweetness like that of a ‘Watermelon Sugar’ or simply ‘BLOW’ your minds with his fierce and spirited moves.
5. ‘Run Away’
YeonJun’s ‘Run Away’ era will forever be an iconic moment as it introduced many to the brilliant potential that he has to deliver. Then a rookie with a not-so-rookie-like talent, YeonJun left an impactful presence on stage with his performances, which made many notice his talents and keyed interest in him. From his magnetic facial expressions to his impeccable delivery of the choreography, perhaps when we praise him for his cleanness and precision in the way he performs today, we can note that this is not a new thing for him as he has always displayed this trait, right since his debut.
6. ‘Good Boy Gone Bad’
At this point, it is safe to admit that YeonJun never disappoints, and the fact that he keeps delivering at this level and standard is truly remarkable. We can’t over-stretch how amazing his facial expressions and stage presence are, it is beyond fascinating and we hope in 3 years’ time, he releases a handbook titled “The YeonJun’s Guide To A Captivating Stage” that serves as a reference for many.
7. ‘Opening Sequence’
YeonJun truly is a masterful performer and we cannot wait to see what other colors he shows us with his artistry in the future. His movements are once again so sleek and filled with a level of fluidity that feels like watching oil drip slowly to the ground. True to his form, YeonJun immerses himself so well into this performance that it feels like he is trying to make a statement, using his body to convey the lyrics and what they mean to him. While we are impressed by his smooth and graceful movement, and yet again, his impeccable body control, we cannot help but also appreciate his vocals on this song. With his riffs and runs and his soft and sultry tone, clearly, this is an area he has developed really well over the years and his technique is becoming quite noticeable.
