On Saturday, December 27, ILLIT's Wonhee was reported to cover IU's iconic track, Good Day, which was released back in 2011. The performance will be rolled out at the upcoming annual year-end music festival, 2025 MBC Gayo Daejejeon. Given the high vocal range and multiple voice notes in the song, many fans and netizens were surprised by Wonhee's bold song choice.
Many artists and critics in the industry consider Good Day to be one of the hardest songs to cover in the K-pop industry. However, given that the ILLIT idol has showcased her strong vocals on multiple occasions, through the group's discography, and also her other covers of IU, such as Merry Christmas Ahead.
Therefore, fans have been eagerly awaiting the live performance of Wonhee's cover of IU's Good Day at the 2025 MBC Gayo Daejejeon on December 31. Here are a few fan reactions regarding the same:

More fans and netizens expressed their reactions to ILLIT's Wonhee reportedly covering IU's Good Day.
the fact that she is covering one of the hardest if not the hardest kpop song ever while being ROOKIE is literally crazy of her
If this rumor is true, it’s not just a cover it’s a rite of passage. ‘Good Day’ has humbled legends. If Wonhee pulls this off, she’s officially announcing herself as more than a rookie… she’s stepping into main character territory. 🎤✨
