Legendary pop artist Cho Yong Pil spoke up on what he thought about his junior artists attempting covers of his songs.


In a special interview broadcast with Lee Seung Gi, the seminal singer noted that there wasn't anything wrong with remaking a song. "Remakes are fine," he said. "Because it brings out a different color of a song. Obviously, my opinion and their opinion on music will be different."

"However, sometimes when I listen, I might think, 'this part should've been done differently,'" he continued.


Critiquing Lee Seung Gi's own remake of his "Let's Go On A Vacation", he said, "I thought that there were a few stylistic changes that could have been done. Take out the vibration, and shorten the tempo a little. There were a few disappointing sections."
