Fan reactions continue to pour in for the 'Was It the Wind' cover videos sung in their own voices by Jung Seo-joo and Jeon Yu-jin. Although the song is the same, the points fans highlighted in the comments on the two videos differed. Comments on Jung Seo-joo's video drew attention to her clear tone and understated expression, while reactions to Jeon Yu-jin's video focused on the fit between the song and her voice and the emotion conveyed through the singing.

■ Jung Seo-joo's 'Was It the Wind' — Clear Tone and a Refreshing Afterglow

One viewer who appreciated Jung Seo-joo's singing wrote, "She delivers the notes with emotion rather than force." Reactions followed praising her voice as clear and clean, with some describing it as pure and beautiful. What fans noticed in Jung Seo-joo's 'Was It the Wind' was her tone and the emotion conveyed through that voice.

Some comments said the song changed their mood. One commenter said their heart felt warm and refreshed, while another said the song offered a sense of freshness, like briefly escaping a complicated daily life. A fan who said they smiled throughout the listening sent their support to Jung Seo-joo's voice.

Comments about hearing a familiar song in a new way also drew attention. One commenter said that when Jung Seo-joo sings it, it feels like a new song, and another described it as seeming reborn as her own song. This does not mean an evaluation of the original or ownership of the song, but is a fan's impression that the song heard through Jung Seo-joo's voice was that impressive.

■ Jeon Yu-jin's 'Was It the Wind' — The Fit Between Song and Voice

On Jeon Yu-jin's 'Was It the Wind' video, some reacted that the song suits the singer well. One commenter wrote that the song fits Jeon Yu-jin perfectly and that listening to it fills the heart with pride. Some fans called Jeon Yu-jin an 'emotional diva' and expressed satisfaction with the performance.

There were also comments welcoming her solo stage. One commenter said they had previously wanted to see her perform the song alone after hearing it, and expressed delight at the video. Reactions of gratitude at being able to watch the full performance revealed fans' desire to enjoy the song in its entirety.

One commenter recalled personal memories through the song. One fan mentioned memories of the past, partings, and a love they did not want to forget, elaborating at length on how they received the song. This is not Jeon Yu-jin's intention or an official interpretation of the song, but an interpretation in which the listener overlaid their own experience onto the song.

■ October Netizen Awards — Jung Seo-joo 1st, Jeon Yu-jin 14th

Interest in the two singers continues in the October Netizen Awards. As of the afternoon of the 19th, in the Female Singer category of the October Netizen Awards, Jung Seo-joo ranks 1st and Jeon Yu-jin 14th. The two, who each rendered the same song in their own colors and won fans' enthusiastic responses, are each confirming their fan support in the awards as well.

In particular, Jung Seo-joo is showing her presence by holding the lead in the Female Singer category. As fans' affection for her clear tone and delicate emotional expression continues, attention is focused on whether she can hold the top spot through the end of the month. Jeon Yu-jin also has fans supporting her distinctive sensibility and appealing voice, so eyes are on the possibility of ranking changes in the remaining period.

■ Same Song, Different Afterglow

The comments on the two covers shared common ground in praising their tones and empathizing with how they conveyed emotion. Jung Seo-joo's fans concretely described her voice as clear and refreshing, while Jeon Yu-jin's fans talked about the fit between the song and the singer and the lingering impression. Even listening to the same 'Was It the Wind,' the moments and expressions fans remembered each differed. One song has met the two singers' voices and left different afterglows.

As fans' affection for Jung Seo-joo and Jeon Yu-jin extends beyond music appreciation to the Netizen Awards, attention is focused on what direction the October Female Singer rankings will take.
