TWICE member Momo earns praise for her honey-sweet vocals in the group’s OST for “Hospital Playlist 2.” Keep reading for all of the details.
Momo Applauded for Her Sweet Vocals in TWICE’s OST for ‘Hospital Playlist 2’
On July 9, “Hospital Playlist 2” released part 4 of their season 2 soundtrack, which contained TWICE’s first Korean-language OST, “I Love You More Than Anyone.” While the group has participated in soundtracks for Japanese films, such as their cover of “I Want You Back” for the Japanese film, “Sensei Kushu,” this is their first time releasing an OST for a Korean drama.
The song received praise from fans, with ONCEs (TWICE’s fandom) rejoicing the fact that TWICE has finally had the chance to show off their vocals in a ballad track. Besides the stable voices of the group’s vocal line, Jihyo, Nayeon, and Jeongyeon, the member who surprised people the most is Momo.
While Momo’s line is relatively short, it is considered the most addictive part of the song. Her singing earned praise from the public, who applauded the Japanese idol for doing a good job. As “I Love You More than Anyone” has low tones and a harmonious melody, many believe this range suits Momo’s cute, low voice more than TWICE’s high-pitched tracks.
