ROOKIE OF THE MONTH: Lee HyunKyung aka - STEADY

Meet Steady A.K.A. Lee Hyun Kyung!

Steady may not technically be a rookie. He has been making music professionally for over 6 years. A little different style than when he started as part of a high school rock band or when he got noticed on Hidden Singer.

Steady debuted with 어느새 봄이었다 Love is Always Vivid on March 12th, 2017, but struggled finding a good agency.

He's just come out with a fantastic "comeback single", One Fine Day on palindrome day, February 02, 2020. (02-02-2020).

Q&A with our ROOKIE OF THE MONTH!

Why did you chose the stage name Steady?

"Steady !!! 꾸준하다 의 뜻 인데.

지금까지 음악활동한게 저는 정말 너무너무너무 ×1000000.... 힘든 상황들이 많았어요. 그럼에도 꾸준히 ... 끝까지 버텨보자 해서 스테디라는 이름으로 바꿨답니다 "

Steady !!! It is a reminder to keep steady.

So far, I've been doing music so much that I've had so many difficult situations. Nevertheless, I changed it to the name Steady because I wanted to stay on to the end "

Favourite performance you’ve done?

My favorite performance was on 2020.2.27 at MCountdown. My least favorite was on Music Bank on 2.21 as the pink suit I had to wear was too big. It made me look like I was a little boy wearing his dad’s clothes.

Steady has been recently promoting on music shows beginning in late February (he was not a fan of the pink suit for the MusicBank performance as he mentioned) and most recently on Show Champion last week. He is sad that there was no live audience as he was looking forward to singing in front of fans. He was also disappointed that he had to cancel his mini-concert so he put on a special Vlive concert that even his international fans could join in. He has been engaging with fans on his Vlive and Instagram live weekly and has even shown them some of his private photos and memories. Make sure to follow him to connect and find out more about his current and future projects.

Steady 감사합니다.

UPDATE (October 2020):

Steady has self produced three new songs for release (one in October, November, and December). He has also started a website www.leehyunkyung.co.kr where he posts about new songs and fan meets. He will also have an auction for some of his personal items.
