On Wheesung's First Anniversary, Babylon & Ain Honor Him with Emotional 'Killing Voice' Tribute

Artists came together to honor singer Wheesung a year after his passing.

On March 10 at 6 p.m., Dingo Music released a special "Killing Voice" video for Wheesung on its official YouTube channel. The project was designed to celebrate the artist’s legacy in Korean R&B and to reinterpret his beloved hits for today.

Built around the themes of remembrance and legacy, the video keeps the tone understated and sincere. Vocals come from Babylon―who shared a close friendship with Wheesung―and Ain, a rookie set to debut in a girl group, adding extra meaning to the tribute.

Babylon and Ain present a mash-up of Wheesung’s many hits, moving beyond simple nostalgia to showcase a legacy that connects the present and future. The set includes songs that once dominated the charts and earned massive love.

With his signature emotional detail and powerhouse vocals, Babylon proved why he stands in the lineage of Korean R&B―and paid heartfelt respect to Wheesung. His seasoned delivery and Ain’s fresh sensitivity breathed new life into Wheesung’s classics, offering comfort and catharsis to fans who miss him deeply.

After the final song, "Can't We," ended, Babylon and Ain faced the black screen in a brief moment of tribute to Wheesung.

Once the two exited, Wheesung’s fan song "My Person"―whose lyrics reflect his gratitude toward fans―played over a montage of him shining on stage. The sequence left viewers with a heavy heart and a lasting echo of emotion.

The Wheesung "Killing Voice" video, newly reimagined by Babylon and Ain, is available now on Dingo Music’s official YouTube channel. It stirred up fans’ memories of Wheesung and sparked curiosity about the two singers’ next musical moves.
