I love that when asked what song would he have wanted to debut with if they had debuted as an idol group , Mingyu thought exclusively of girl group songs and even confirmed he was thinking of debuting "as a girl group", haha he truly fits right in at beat <3

Mingyu, about Hyungho: Apparently we're getting someone new in the group.
Woorim: Are we stealing them?
Doohoon: New or used?
Mingyu: Wonderful responses, both of you.

Hello Everyone!
Today I will write about a slightly different topic than before. So far I have presented series, but now I will talk about a musical group called Forestella.
Forestella is a South Korean crossover male vocal quartet. The group was formed in 2017 through JTBC's singing contest Phantom Singer season 2. They were the winners of that season and became the most famous quartet throughout the whole show (3 seasons + All Stars). Sadly, I haven't seen their season yet, as English subtitles are not available anywhere but I will watch it either way, after finishing season 1 (which I stopped watching, because that too, only had English subs in the first half of the episodes). Since August 1, 2021, they've been under Beat Interactive, along with the K-pop band A.C.E, who I'm also a fan of.
As you can guess, the group consists of four members: Bae Doo-hoon (배두훈, tenor, 36), Kang Hyung-ho (강형호, countertenor, 33), Cho Min-gyu (조민규, tenor, 31) and Ko Woo-rim (고우림, bass, 27). Woorim and Mingyu are opera singers and the latter is the leader of the quartet. Doohoon is a musical actor, he studied acting at Korea National University of Arts. Hyungho is probably the most well-known of the four, the video of him singing both Christine's and the Phantom's part in the song Phantom of the Opera really blew up, many international youtubers have reacted to it. It's also worthy of note, that he hadn’t studied music before going on Phantom Singer, showing that he really has a natural talent for singing. He’s an amateur rock singer, who used to work as a chemist.
The name Forestella comes from two words: forest and stella (Italian for star). The Italian touch really comes in handy when we think about how many languages Forestella has sung in. They mostly sing in Korean, Italian and English, but songs in French, Spanish and other languages are found in their discography too. They currently have four albums; Evolution, Mystique, The Forestella and The Beginning: World Tree.
Forestella has appeared on Two Yoo Project and Immortal Songs, a competition where each episode features singers or bands who perform their reinterpreted versions of (older) songs. Currently, they are filming their youtube series called Forrecipe In The Woods.
In my opinion, Forestella is 100% worth to stan. I'm pretty open-minded about music, so I gladly listen to classical songs, but this group was the one that made me really interested in opera pieces. The members have fun personalities too, and they might be the most talented musicians I have ever known.
I hope I peaked your interest with my review. Take care✨

I think if I only heard Mr. Cho Mingyu's voice for the whole rest of my life I'd be okay with that

This video is my current obsession. And this man, and all of Forestella, may have just become my next hyperfixation.
Listening to how he slides from one language to another, just.... Mmmmmm.
Is his pronunciation actually any good? *Shrug* not a clue. I know that to my totally untrained ear, at least the French sounds like French, German sounds like German.
