The MBC "Radio Star" airing today (1st) (planned by Kang Youngseon / directed by Hwang Yunsang, Byun Dahi) is presented as a special titled "Golden Eun's kids" featuring Bong Taegyu, Ok Jayeon, Song Eunyi, Park Sora and Hwang Junghye.
Park Sora and Hwang Junghye debuted as KBS public-recruit comedians in the 26th and 31st classes, respectively, and the two run the YouTube channel "SwiKechi" together. The channel currently has 560,000 subscribers.
First, Park Sora recalls "an embarrassing past I want to bury forever at MBC," summoning scenes from the past drama reenactment program "Surprise" in which she appeared as a flight attendant and as a noblewoman from the Joseon era, amusing the audience with her performance as a beauty-focused actress. She also revealed an anecdote from the Gag Concert days about Jang Doyoun, saying "Jang Doyoun is my ex-unnie," which piqued the MCs' curiosity.
After the cancellation of "Gag Concert," the "waxing" episode she posted on YouTube became a huge hit, and she revealed the story of how she ended up joining Song Eunyi's company. She said the "SwiKechi" channel also received explosive reactions from the start with content on common women's talk topics like waxing and dating, conveying the on-site atmosphere of viral views and eliciting admiration from the cast.
Hwang Junghye said she sought advice from senior Im Wooil before appearing on "Radio Star," which was a big help, drawing curiosity. She also revealed the behind-the-scenes story of Kim Suyong's appearance on "SwiKechi." She shared a backstory that had to be made private in just one hour due to an unexpected reaction, stirring the studio.
Hwang Junghye said she is called "little Kim Sook" among comedy seniors and juniors and asked, "From now on, call me by my name without the surname," showcasing her cutting wit. She also revealed various behind-the-scenes stories and increased earnings.
From the comedy stage to online platforms, Park Sora and Hwang Junghye have built their own domains. The two's bittersweet confessions of embarrassing pasts and behind-the-scenes success stories can be seen on "Radio Star" at 10:30 p.m. that day.
