KBS2's 'Immortal Songs' with Shin Seung-tae and Choi Soo-ho brings laughter through their chemistry that overcomes a significant 16-year age gap.
KBS2's 'Immortal Songs' (directed by Park Hyung-geun, Kim Hyung-seok, and Choi Seung-beom) has been the undisputed top music variety program for nearly 14 years, ranking first in viewership ratings at the same time slot. The 699th episode, airing today (29th), is titled 'Songwriters - Part 2 of Yoon Myung-sun.'
On this day, the appearance of Shin Seung-tae and Choi Soo-ho makes the MC Lee Chan-won exclaim, "The two of you have a full 16-year age difference," marveling at their friendship that transcends generations. In response, Shin Seung-tae shares, "I don't feel the age gap, but they keep creating walls. They keep asking me about things like new slang." Choi Soo-ho then reveals, "I just said 'jinssa,' but they didn't understand," bringing a buzz to the talk waiting room.
Then Lee Chan-won steps in, asking, "Still, you don't feel the age difference very much, do you?" Choi Soo-ho cheerfully replies, "You live so young, brother," which reportedly makes the scene burst into laughter. Ultimately, Shin Seung-tae confesses, "Actually, the one I was closest to among the 'King of Singers 2' contestants was Hwang Min-ho," thereby becoming the warm uncle of the trott music scene.
Meanwhile, Shin Seung-tae raises curiosity by revealing that he was the one who first reached out to Choi Soo-ho. Shin Seung-tae praises, "Soo-ho does everything well. He excels in emotional songs and dance," continuing to shower him with compliments. Choi Soo-ho, who is making his first appearance on 'Immortal Songs,' shares, "When my friends said they wanted to become singers, they didn't acknowledge me and teased me. But when I told them about my appearance on 'Immortal Songs,' they finally recognized me," earning applause.
In addition, on this day, Choi Soo-ho, who is making his first appearance on 'Immortal Songs,' ignites the atmosphere of the talk waiting room by showcasing the choreography to G-Dragon's 'TOO BAD.' The 'King of Singers' CRAVITY reportedly gave him a thumbs up, saying, "You could be part of a team." As anticipation rises for the exciting stage that the chemistry and skill of Shin Seung-tae and Choi Soo-ho will display, the expectations for the main broadcast are soaring.
Meanwhile, in this episode titled 'Songwriters - Part 2 of Yoon Myung-sun,' Yoon Myung-sun's music, which includes hit songs across genres from trot to rock ballads, R&B, and dance, will be reborn. In the previous part, Lin, Jeong In X Radi, Da-hye, CRAVITY, and Jo Jae-ju competed, with Jo Jae-ju taking home the winner's trophy. The second part airing today features performances from Hwang Chi-yeol, Shin Yoo, Shin Seung-tae X Choi Soo-ho, ONEWE, and La Poem, who will reinterpret Yoon Myung-sun's masterpieces.
