SISTAR's Soyou and Jay Park teamed up for a duet on ‘Immortal Song 2’.

On the October 19th episode, they covered Choi Jin Hee's “Love’s Maze”, making it their own by splitting it up into the perspective of a couple breaking up.

Choi Jin Hee commented, "It was like a different song with the rap in it. I was immersed in ‘Love’s Maze’."

Despite the duo’s heartfelt performance, J2M took home the trophy on this episode.

Check out Jay Park and Soyou’s performance above!

the performance itself is a little awkward (Mad Clown was supposed to be performing w/ Soyou but had to cancel and Jay was added in last minute) but Soyou sounded nice and Jay did okay

Jay subbing for MC makes a lot more sense, I was wondering why they'd go through with this when it's obvious he and Soyou don't really have chemistry (going by this performance).

Idk, maybe it's because I heard Davichi's version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8tJywRIvLo) first but I like it more because Maze of Love works better arranged as a sad ballad throughout, not the intro-to-upbeat that they tried here (plus rap). Soyou sounds really good in the beginning, but after that it sounds really rushed imo.

Im glad Soyou's getting more attention for her isnging.

I would have liked to hear Mad Clown, Soyu and him surely have more chemistry together.
I don't know about the song choice, but I liked that Soyu was doing something a little bit more powerful than the sweet-singing she's been doing. I'm glad she performed on shows like that ! Get it, Soyu !

Not bad, but Mad Clown would've been better performing with Soyu; I just can't take Jay seriously as a rapper esp with female singers. Soyu was amazing, I love that she's getting more light and she fits into a hip-hop kind of image really well

really? I thought Jay did well given the circumstances and he's improved heaps since he started. MC was original supposed to be with Soyou but had to cancel. Soyou and Hyorin have always wanted to try a hip-hop concept, I'm just waiting for that to happen. I thought that SYxMC would be a duet album (where they'd have a chance to do less sad music) not just one song, I wish that Soyou could be fixed on IS2, I wanna see everything she's capable of

Yeah, Jay has improved, but I just prefer his singing to his rapping and I just like how Soyu and Mad Clown look together tbh A duet album from them (kinda like Troublemaker) would've been awesome. Hyorin and Soyu need a proper duet together and major bonus if Starship strays from the typical ballad duet to something hip hop-y since Hyorin can rap

Jay is a slightly better rapper than Mad Clown, I think...
