On December 8 and 9, singer Lee MiJa and her daughter Jung JaeEun will take the stage together for the first time at the ‘Happy Christmas Dinner Show’ held at the Hilton Tokyo Hotel in Shinjuku, Japan. This will be an exceptionally special moment for Jung JaeEun, who is celebrating her 25th debut anniversary this year.
This marks the first time Jung JaeEun and Lee MiJa will perform together. The significance of this performance is amplified by the fact that Lee MiJa has never shared her stage with another artist throughout her career.
Jung JaeEun debuted at the age of 8 and gained recognition through the 1978 MBC International Song Festival. In 1999, she left behind hit songs such as ‘Harbor,’ ‘Ferry,’ and ‘The One Who Left Anyway’ before moving to Japan, where she has continued her career under the name Chae EunEe. Her debut song ‘Tokyo Twilight’ won the Newcomer Award at the Japan Record Awards, and she achieved consecutive number one spots in the Enka category of the Oricon Chart, as well as winning the Cable Music Excellence Award and the Gold Request Award, marking significant success in Japan.
Recently, Jung JaeEun released a 25th anniversary single ‘Tokyo in Autumn’ and has been hosting her own radio program ‘Music Photo Book Chae EunEe’ since April. The radio show introduces various information and song requests from Korea, engaging with listeners.
Jung JaeEun aims to resolve the regret of not being able to perform on Korean stages during her 25 years in Japan through this dinner show. She has already received full support from her mother Lee MiJa and is reportedly in considerable discussions with domestic agencies, raising expectations.
Jung JaeEun expressed her determination by saying, “I am very happy to be able to stand on stage with my beloved mother on the occasion of my 25th debut anniversary. I will present an unforgettable performance to the audience who come to the dinner show.”
Ticket sales are expected to open on the 26th of this month. Fans should hurry to book tickets to not miss the historic first joint performance of Lee MiJa and Jung JaeEun. Sharing this special moment will surely double the emotional impact.
