Singer Lee Jae Performs at 2026 North and Central America World Cup Opening Ceremony, Earns Praise for Outfit

Singer and songwriter Lee Jae received acclaim for her outfit and thoughtful styling at the opening ceremony of the 2026 North and Central America World Cup.

Lee performed the official World Cup theme song, "DNA," alongside world-renowned tenor Andrea Bocelli at the opening ceremony held in Mexico last Friday.

Her blue dress, adorned with mother-of-pearl and white crystal crafted by Korean artisans, drew significant attention.

Equally notable was Lee's choice of footwear. She made headlines for wearing sneakers instead of high heels to avoid damaging the turf of the stadium where the opening match was held.

Additionally, Lee participated in writing the lyrics for the theme song "DNA."

The inclusion of Korean lyrics, which translate to "Even if I fall again, I will rise once more," delivered a deeply moving message.
