This year, it has received even more love than before.

The girl groups have once again...

These days, I'm obsessed with Ben...

and her voice that's full of emotions.

Their songs make me smile.

- That's great. - I see.

- Can you guess? - I think I know who they are.

I think I'm feeling lonely

Did I mimic them perfectly? Was I that great?

- Of course. - Sure.

- You sounded the same. - That was "Fall in Fall".

I think I'm feeling lonely

It's Vibe, a group known for their singing ability.

They collaborated with Ben to show us an emotional harmony.

Before that, it's a performance by a heartwarming and lovely duo.

BOL4 went to Hongdae, a place known for its youthfulness,

and harmonized with the people there.

Let us watch their performance first.

Let's go!
