Charice Pempengco returned and performed again on Korean TV talent search show “Star King” on July 24 and wowed Korean stars and the audience, and even brought tears to a member of a K-pop girl group.

The Filipino singer first performed on the show in 2007 when she made a huge impact with her powerful singing voice. She also sang “A Whole New World” with Super Junior's Kyuhyun back then.

That video, plus her immense talent became her ticket to her appearances on both the “Ellen Degeneres Show” and “Oprah,” which eventually led to bagging her an international recording contract.

On her July 24 appearance on “Star King,” Charice performed an array of songs. This included a medley of Whitney Houston songs in which she sang "When You Believe" with Korean singer So Hyang.

Charice and f(x)’s Luna also sang “One Moment in Time,” which got the latter teary-eyed. The Filipino singer then sang “Pyramid,” which is the title track of her first international album.

Korean stars who were there included members of Super Junior, CNBlue, f(x) and SHINee.

It was a triumphant return for Charice who was virtually unknown when she appeared on the program in 2007.

Her latest performance on "Star King" earned her praises on YouTube.

One of these read: “Charice, you, my girl was awesome, really! You're up a head, very strong performance, we can really see that you enjoyed your third time on the show.”

Another lauded: “Wow she still amazes me. Her talent is, as Kang Ho Dong (the 'Star King' emcee) would say, unbelievable!”
