South Korea's Lee Seung Gi has spent years tugging at listeners' hearts with his drama-building ballads. He's earned the nickname “Ballad Prince” from a music scene known for creating big, soaring tunes. Seung Gi isn't shy about veering into the occasional slinky funk or upbeat pop number, but his calling card is ballads that can stir emotions in folks way up in the nosebleed seats as if he were singing just to them.
