Singer and musical actress Ivy appears and candidly discusses everything from the truth behind the 'Song Seung-heon cohabitation rumor' to Park Jin-Young's "musical impossibility theory," and the real-life hardships of a perfectionist musical goddess. On stage she is a meticulous perfectionist, and in her daily life she brings laughter and empathy with a humane sense of humor.
MBC's Radio Star airing on the night of the 12th is arranged as a "talent Ivy league" special featuring Ji Hyun-woo, Ivy, Kim Jun-hyun and Kim Kyu-won.
Ivy candidly reveals the practical concerns of being the head of a one-person agency. She said, "Because I alone am responsible for everything, payday is the scariest day," sharing a bittersweet daily life with a laugh. She went on to say, "There is pressure to be perfect on stage," conveying her sincerity and philosophy as a musical actress and drawing empathy.
She then brings up stories about Park Jin-Young. Ivy expressed gratitude toward Park Jin-Young, who produced her early in her career, saying, 'If it weren't for him I wouldn't have succeeded,' while also causing bursts of laughter by saying, "I don't think I could do musicals because it's 'half air, half sound.'" She said, "Musicals require different breathing and vocalization, so if you ride the rhythm you can't deliver the lines," prompting laughter.
She also recounts an anecdote about Ji Hyun-woo, her co-star in the musical "Redbook." Ivy said, "Ji Hyun-woo comes to the rehearsal room even on days without performances," accurately depicting Ji Hyun-woo's understated 'low-salt person' personality and filling the studio with laughter. Ivy then revealed a painful past of being burned by the 'low-salt person' type and said she does not provoke Ji Hyun-woo, which made people burst into laughter.
She properly reveals the full story behind the 'Song Seung-heon cohabitation rumor.' She explained, "While supporting a rescue dog organization, I adopted a puppy with distinctive eyebrows and named it Song Seung-heon," and "I posted that on social media and it even became news." Afterwards, Ivy said, "I happened to meet the real actor Song Seung-heon at a golf course," vividly recounting the situation, and the MCs and guests burst into laughter at the episode of the 'cohabitation rumor.'
She also reveals the behind-the-scenes of the 'dark history meme' that made headlines on the diving program "Splash." "I used a waterproof product, but during the interview my lipstick had spread to my front teeth," she said, recounting an embarrassing moment that left the set in stitches.
Ivy conveys both her artistic sincerity and human frankness until the end. The reality talk and surprising charm of the perfectionist musical goddess will be revealed on Radio Star, airing at 10:30 p.m. on the 12th.
