Sejun, seemingly overwhelmed by the Hayley’s comment, thanking Paramore vocalist for her music which the leader of the acclaimed P-Pop group called “healing.”

“Thank you so much,” he wrote. He added: “Your music is healing, and it echoes.”

SB19 recently marked a back-to-back feat in their career as a group after making it to the Top 3 of Billboard’s Social 50 charts — just two spots behind K-Pop powerhouse groups BTS and EXO — as well as snagging the number 7 spot on Billboard’s Emerging Artists list.

But what could probably be the biggest achievement in the five-piece group’s career was the launch of their debut album “Get In The Zone” which was released after a year since getting introduced to the public.

Meanwhile, Paramore — which was formed in 2004 — currently consists of three members namely Hayley Williams, Taylor York, and Zac Farro.

Some of Paramore’s hits include “The Only Exception,” “Still Into You,” and “Brick By Boring Brick.”

Paramore last came to Manila in 2018.
