Jung Jae-hyung and Code Kunst's 'L1VE WIRE' has opened a new horizon for music programs.
Mnet's 'L1VE WIRE', which airs every Friday, has firmly established itself as the music program responsible for Friday evenings.
The early broadcast points of interest were ▲a differentiated artist lineup ▲excellent sound quality ▲and stages specialized in band sound. However, as the episodes progressed, these strengths became not just mere advantages but the signature of 'L1VE WIRE'. In particular, a narrative has built among the invited artists each episode, and the 'collaboration stages that viewers can trust and see' have garnered a great response from the audience.
The stages that have attracted attention so far are diverse. Unique combinations and song selections like Jannabi x Hanlo, Yoo Hwe-seung x Car, and Woochan x Hanhae x Nucksal, as well as Lee Chan-hyuk x YB, are considered the biggest attractions of 'L1VE WIRE'. Now, the affectionate responses from the steady viewer base who are already well aware of these strengths are further solidifying the program's position week by week.
After the broadcast, various social media platforms were filled with affectionate viewing reviews, such as "the lineup today is perfect," "I rushed home to watch the live broadcast," and "my Friday evenings are now fixed with 'L1VE WIRE'." This steady response from fixed viewers and engagement through replays and clips has increased the trust and preference for the program, supporting its long-term popularity.
Particularly in the 8th episode, the emotional band Lucy, rapper Loco, Indonesia's rising star Feby Putri, and Hwasa and Kwon Jin-ah took the stage, drawing significant attention. Lucy captured fans' hearts instantly with the stage of 'To You,' receiving reactions like, "I almost cried while listening live," and "I never expected to see this song on the broadcast." The stage of Loco x Feby Putri has generated hot topics both domestically and internationally, with responses from overseas fans including, "I never thought I would see an artist wearing a hijab on Korean television," "her voice is even better than the audio source," and "I'm proud of Feby."
On this day, the live performance of Hwasa and Kwon Jin-ah also received attention. In particular, Hwasa introduced a new rendition of 'Don't Give It' with Loco from the 2018 release, perfectly capturing the mood that evokes nostalgia among viewers. Fans commented, "It feels like going back to those days," and "the chemistry is still strong."
'L1VE WIRE' is establishing itself as a venue where diverse genres and unique artists meet on one stage every week, allowing music fans to discover new tastes and providing a 'Friday evening music companion' that can be enjoyed comfortably after work and school.
Bringing together artists from various genres and generations on one stage, Mnet's 'L1VE WIRE' offers music fans a 'new taste discovery' and broadcasts simultaneously on Mnet and tvN every Friday at 7 p.m.
