She eventually had to stop singing for a whole minute, looking visibly overcome with emotion after singing the line “No one will blame you.” The orchestra continued to play behind her and she caught up to the song, after gaining her composure.
Her performance was immediately after a heartwarming tribute video was shown, in dedication to Jonghyun. The video had messages from Taeyeon, EXO, and SHINee’s Key.
