"MZ wannabe icon" IVE leader Ahn Yu-jin will appear on SBS "My Grumpy Secretary" as a "my star."
Recently released preview footage for SBS "My Grumpy Secretary" showed the content to be aired on the 9th. The preview captured a special day with "my star" Ahn Yu-jin, who served as the home host for the 2025 SBS Gayo Daejeon and performed as a member of IVE, and her one-day managers Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu.
As Ahn Yu-jin has become an emblematic presence by serving as MC for the gayo daejeon for four consecutive years and six times overall, she is expected to captivate Friday night viewers by revealing not only her professional charm as an MC but also cheerful daily life with fellow members who appeared with her.
In particular, Ahn Yu-jin caught attention by emphasizing the "queen's mind" as her own secret for staying composed even in tense backstage situations. In the preview, Ahn Yu-jin led the atmosphere by personally passing on the "queen's mind" to Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu, who transformed into one-day managers, and the two, flustered by Ahn Yu-jin's extraordinary energy, continued close care by fetching water for her throat, eliciting laughter.
Also, IVE members appeared on site and hinted at a distinctive presence. The members brightened the set with a friendly and lively charm different from their professional stage personas. When IVE members said they wanted to eat "Dubai jjondeuk cookie," Kim Kwang-kyu replied, "Jjonk? Is that a dog's name?" and Lee Seo-jin, hearing "dujjonk" for the first time, offered a chocolate cookie instead, surprising the members and promising an unusual chemistry.
At the Christmas home party following the gayo daejeon schedule, Lee Seo-jin, Kim Kwang-kyu and Ahn Yu-jin are expected to show even deeper synergy as they enjoy cooking and decorating the house together.
IVE, the group to which Ahn Yu-jin belongs, has firmly established itself as a "global trend." Their albums released last year continued to be hits, achieving "seven consecutive million sellers," and through activities for "REBEL HEART," "ATTITUDE" and "XOXZ," they recorded 20 overall music show wins. Also, this year they continued their activities by getting closer to fans around the world through their second world tour "SHOW WHAT I AM," held last year at Seoul KSPO DOME.
Expectations are rising to see how Ahn Yu-jin and IVE, who are active across the global stage and variety shows, will bring joy to home viewers when they meet Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu on this episode of "My Grumpy Secretary."
Meanwhile, SBS's "My Grumpy Secretary," featuring Ahn Yu-jin and IVE, will air on the 9th at 11:10 p.m.
