A legendary band, creating timeless classics; a tribute band, reigniting the passion of the years! BEYOND is more than just a band, more than just a series of classic melodies—it represents an era, a youthful and upwardly mobile passion, a heart that never compromises. There is a kind of regret in this world called ‘never having heard Wong Ka Kui live.’ As a child, I did not understand the music but knew that BEYOND’s songs were pleasant to listen to. I still remember sitting in my father’s car as a child, the car CD always played BEYOND’s music. So even though I did not live in the same era as Wong Ka Kui, he remains a memory of my youth. Time flies like quicksand, and every song of BEYOND resonates with our souls, bringing hope, peace, and love. Whenever we are lost and confused, we can draw strength from Wong Ka Kui’s slightly husky yet resolute voice. Their songs accompanied me through many seasons. Although Wong Ka Kui has left us, there is no doubt that the spirit of Wong Ka Kui NEVER DIE. A legend inevitably carries the concerns of many people, and Wong Ka Kui is no exception. Countless music fans and musicians pay tribute to him in their own ways. If you want to relive the classics and experience the rock charm of BEYOND live once again, the opportunity is here! The lead singer of this concert, ‘Fu Jiu,’ is well-known among BEYOND fans for his strikingly similar voice to Ka Kui. 120 minutes of exhilarating music, familiar and beloved classic hits, singing together with you!Fu Jiu, known for his voice remarkably similar to Wong Ka Kui’s, has gradually gained recognition and admiration from a vast number of fans. Perhaps you have never had the chance to experience a live BEYOND concert, but Fu Jiu, the person with the most similar vocal timbre to Ka Kui in China, can take you back to that passionate scene where everyone seems like fervent youths again.
In his view, BEYOND’s music conveys more of an inner struggle, an inspiring sentiment. Even though Ka Kui is no longer with us and BEYOND has disbanded, the sentiment of perseverance and transcendence in BEYOND’s music has never disappeared; the years will not forget those classics. Hearing someone sing these songs, I am very moved. The voice is secondary; what’s important is that Fu Jiu possesses Ka Kui’s charm and has put in a lot of hard work.
——BEYOND guitarist, Hong Kong’s renowned music producer, Paul Wong.
Fu Jiu’s voice is very similar to Ka Kui’s, it’s magical. Fu Jiu’s singing is his way of paying tribute to Ka Kui, and I believe it comes from an inner respect.
——Former BEYOND manager, founder of Hong Kong’s music management agency Red Star Production, Leslie Chan.
Fu Jiu was invited to join the first domestic tribute concert to BEYOND, ‘Ka Kui’s June Day Concert,’ as the lead singer in 2011.
