'The Seasons' presents a sensory music journey that follows artists' life-changing music and moments themed around a time machine.
Airing at 11 p.m. on the 18th, KBS 2TV's 'The Seasons – Park Bo-gum's Cantabile' features Super Junior, Sunwoo Jung-a, Paul Blanco, and Jisokuri Club, who grants each of their musical stories through their own times. The warm journey that revisits life's moments set against a background of music gives viewers a deep resonance.
On this day, Park Bo-gum's activities stand out. He enriches the stage with heartfelt piano performances and deep-digging questions into the guests' music. With witty ad-libs, sharp hosting, and delicate empathetic comments, the evolving essence of Park Bo-gum's music variety shows shines in this broadcast as well.
Super Junior, the first Asian group to hold a solo concert in Saudi Arabia, reveals the unbelievable story that "they built the concert hall and operated 200 air conditioners in just one day." Despite worrying about joint issues ten years ago, Super Junior fully resurrects the second-generation K-POP sentiment on stage, reflecting their 20 years since debut.
In particular, the stage for 'I Know,' composed by senior SM artist Kangta and prepared for the fandom E.L.F., is revealed for the first time. When Park Bo-gum confessed, "I really liked songs by K.R.Y (Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Yesung) seniors" in response to the remark that they aimed for 'nostalgic feelings,' the members reacted in surprise, saying, "He is a rare young man. Is it possible to like an unfortunate group?"
Sunwoo Jung-a, who made a reappearance after 18 episodes, humorously kicks off the show with a flustered wave in response to Park Bo-gum's sudden comment, "I missed you." She shares an honest behind-the-scenes story about her representative song 'Let's Run Away,' saying, "It's a song I made after having a fight and leaving home during my honeymoon," evoking laughter and emotion from the audience.
During this broadcast, Sunwoo Jung-a also mentions a song she wants to sing directly to Park Bo-gum, causing a stir with her unexpected song choice. Park Bo-gum is expected to deliver a humorous moment by throwing in an affectionate joke saying, "I'm disappointed, my own professor." The narrative of melancholy and recovery in her new album 'Chan Rahn' will also be featured in this broadcast.
Paul Blanco, who appeared two years ago donning a pink vest with long hair, returns to the KBS music stage. He reveals the reason for his appearance, saying, "I received a lot of love for the song I briefly sang here two years ago and wanted to come back again." He shares his feelings, saying, "I was scared and nervous to the point of wanting to run away, but it was simultaneously a place of grace." In fact, the video of 'That Kind of Thing' sung by Paul Blanco has garnered over 5 million views on the KBS official YouTube channel, creating a buzz.
When Park Bo-gum asks about his real name, he unexpectedly reveals, "Actually, my friends call me that because I look like 'Deoksu.'" He also shows self-reflection about the fact that most of his album title tracks are rated for adults, which brought laughter.
Jisokuri Club, showcasing the unique genre of 'Fishing Pop,' expresses its fan spirit, saying, "I couldn't sleep thinking about meeting Park Bo-gum. We even fought over who would sit next to him." A member who attended the recording shares their emotional experience of being on stage, starting a delightful time travel with Park Bo-gum's hospitality.
A standout scene appeals to Park Bo-gum with a witty remark that "dopamine is seven times stronger than drugs, and fishing is better than drugs." A song that represents the sentiment of the 10 million amateur investors who suffered losses in the stock market evokes poignant sympathy.
'The Seasons – Park Bo-gum's Cantabile,' which continues the music journey of artists and viewers with a new theme each episode, will air on KBS 2TV at 11 p.m. on the 18th.
