Kang Chang Mo's gorgeous, high-pitched voice is the focal point of his R&B ballads. The singer is part of the mid-'00s Korean R&B wave associated with Rain and SE7EN, but, unlike his peers, he eschews dance beats in favor of softer, more emotional songs. The arrangements on many of his tunes are more relaxed than the usual whirlwind of violins associated with ballads, and instead highlight the influence of soft rock, folk, and R&B.
