    Artist & Song Information

    Lim Young-woong is one of South Korea’s most celebrated singers, first rising to prominence as the champion of Mr. Trot, a hit televised talent competition that revitalized the traditional trot genre and turned him into a national household name.

    His single Do or Die, released on October 9, 2023, marked a bold shift from his ballad and trot roots into high-energy pop. The song debuted at No. 1 on South Korea’s Circle Digital Chart, topped the Circle Monthly Download Chart for consecutive months, and earned Song of the Year at the 2025 KOMCA Copyright Awards. It also spent 8 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Global (Excl. U.S.) chart and remained on the chart for a total of 12 weeks by January 2024. The track became the fastest song of 2023 to reach No. 1 on Melon’s TOP100 chart, hitting the top spot in just three hours. It also charted on YouTube Korea’s Weekly Popular Music Video chart for approximately 18 consecutive weeks. The music video quickly climbed Korean streaming charts, entering Melon’s “Hall of Fame” within 24 hours with 1,697,100 first-day streams, including the first million in just 14 hours — the 33rd-fastest achievement in Melon’s history.
