Day6 as a group is fairly underappreciated, especially their vocals. Young K is one of the vocalists of DAY6 as four members have outstanding voices. 

Sungjin, Jae, Wonpil, and he all take turns in singing and showing off their singing skills in their songs. However, there are many times that Young K is more appreciated as a composer rather than a singer. 

He has a very unique voice that you will recognize as soon as you hear him sing. He even released solo songs last year.

Watch his music video here and here and appreciate the beauty of his vocals. 

SF9 Rowoon

Youngjae (GOT7)

The main vocalist of GOT7 is definitely one of the most underrated main vocals of his generation.

Youngjae as an idol is pretty much underrated as he is not that known outside of the GOT7 fandom. 

This amazing singer has more of an R&B and ballad type of voice rather than pop and dance tracks. He is also great at high notes that you can clearly hear in their songs. 

He amazed the public after going to the "Masked Singer" and singing a beautiful ballad song

After leaving JYP Entertainment he debuted as a solo artist.

Xiaojun (NCT)

SM Entertainment is known to have many great vocalists and this WayV member is one of the proofs.

Xiaojun is being buried by other more well-known NCT members as being great singers. When he visited the Lee Mujin "Service" YouTube show, he sang different songs to showcase his vocals because SM Entertainment is not doing it.

He joined SM a bit later, in 2018, so other NCT vocalists have established themselves already. However, he can definitely hold a candle when it comes to his singing talents. 

Watch this compilation of him singing different songs. 

Kihyun (MONSTA X)

Another underrated main vocal of the 3rd generation is this MONSTA X member.
