Who would never fall in love with wide vocal ranges? We bet you can never say no to hearing versatile vocals, may they be sweet like a lullaby or strong, powerful tones. There is a ton of talented idols who have impressive vocal ranges, and we have here our best-picked singers who have once or twice (or more!) left the audience floored with their skill. From Girls' Generation Taeyeon to EXO Chen and more, check out these vocalists who can hit high notes like it's nothing!

SHINee Jonghyun 

An idol that turned into an angel, Jonghyun remains one of the best vocalists who took the industry by storm with his vocal range. He was the main vocalist and producer of SHINee, popularly known to be one of the K-pop idols who have the most copyrighted under his name.

This beloved idol became a part of SM's unit called "The Ballad," along with other idols formed under his company, and he was loved for his vocals ever since then.

TXT Taehyun

This member Hybe's TXT (Tomorrow X Together) has extraordinary vocals at such a young age!

Born in 2002, Kang Taehyun surely has the singer DNA running in his veins. He may be quirky with his magic tricks off stage, but he never disappoints when he holds a mic and stands onstage, ready to serenade MOAs - just like the group's performance in We The K-Pop.

Girls' Generation Taeyeon

As a member of one of the legendary K-pop groups, Girls' Generation, Taeyeon sure did not ever ride her group's coattails as she made a name for herself as a solo singer!

Thanks to her incredible talent, she is one of today's admired vocalists. She is known for her powerful vocals that she can belt without a problem.

Currently, the SNSD member is the host of Mnet's reality program, "Queendom" Season 2.

PENTAGON Jinho

One of the most underrated groups managed by CUBE Entertainment is PENTAGON.

CUBE seems to be so lucky to have such a powerful vocalist in their company as Jo Jinho is so talented for having such a wide vocal range! He is known for having a series on YouTube called "MAGAZINE HO," where he covers songs from various artists from Korea and America, as well. You should check them out!

aespa Winter

Among K-pop's 4th-generation singers, Winter of aespa always comes to mind when the discussion about impressive vocalists is brought up. In fact, Mys (aespa fandom) can't wait for the young and talented singer to release her solo debut album, even if it seems only possible a few years from now.

Even the "Queen of K-pop" BoA got impressed by her. Talk about pure skill!

Kim Jaehwan

A former member of Produce 101 Season 2 boy group project Wanna One, Kim Jaehwan debuted as a solo singer and composer in early 2019 and continued to grow as one of the well-favored vocalists in the country because of his effortless high notes in every song he performs. His vocal skills have already reached so many survival shows, and there was never a chance that the panel judges and the audiences got disappointed for his hard work.

IU

IU, born as Lee Jieun, has always left an impression on Uaenas and non-fans on how she always releases songs that are out of what the audience expects. As a senior by numerous idols in the industry today, IU is consistently praised for her sweet and powerful voice at the same time.

ASTRO MJ

Another underrated group that should be noticed by non-fans is ASTRO, a six-member group formed under Fantagio. ASTRO may have the astonishing face genius Cha Eunwoo, but they also have the fantastic lead vocals MJ, who represents how amazing their group is when it comes to performing songs that need effortless hitting of high notes.

Red Velvet Wendy

Of course, our adorable Olaf! But wait - don't be fooled by her cute, little nickname because she can easily leave a massive crowd in awe as she belts onstage and even impromptu while sitting, hitting high notes like it's nothing.

As the main vocalist of the quintet Red Velvet, which is actually a vocal group itself, Wendy is truly deserving to release her solo album that can showcase her individual colors as a singer.

BTS Jungkook

Surely, ARMYs would agree with this question: Is there anything that Jeon Jungkook can't do?

May it be rapping, dancing, art, b-boying, singing, Jungkook can do it! On BTS's newly released album "Map of The Soul: 7," fans have been praising him for expressing his emotions for "ON" effortlessly.

EXO Chen

Last but definitely not the least is EXO's one and only Kim Jongdae, a.k.a. Chen! The nonet's main vocalist and esteemed solo singer can hit high notes without sweat, and he even managed to impress even the non-K-pop fans when he sang the infamous "Tears" by So Chan Whee - and yes, in the original female key!

Check out how he left everyone floored with his cover here!

Other idols who have incredible vocals are N. Flying's Yoo Hwe Seung, F.T. Island's Lee Hong Ki, and BTOB's Son Eunkwang.
