ILLIT member Won-hee will make her first terrestrial talk-variety show debut on Radio Star. Introducing herself as an "aspirant" in response to the label "post-national younger sister," she brings fresh laughs to the studio with an innocent yet candid charm.

The MBC Radio Star airing on the 14th (planning Chey Yoon-chung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee) is arranged as a "national OOO" special featuring Park Geun-hyung, Song Ok-sook, Choi Hyun-woo and Won-hee. Despite being her first terrestrial talk-variety appearance, Won-hee approaches the talk with curiosity rather than nervousness, making her presence felt.

Won-hee describes herself as a "national ant aspiring to be the nation's younger sister and a weed," conveying a humble attitude that she is still learning, which elicits laughter. As the candid reactions and unexpected remarks typical of a variety show rookie "chick" continue, the MCs and cast naturally break into "dad smiles."

Regarding her activities with ILLIT, she honestly confesses, "I feel guilty acting cute." The studio fills with laughter at Won-hee's cute account of the gap between her onstage image and her real personality.

Won-hee reveals that she has been chosen as the Pocari Sweat advertising model, a role held for three consecutive years by stars synonymous with purity, and she candidly shares the burden and responsibility of the label "national younger sister." In particular, she recounts an episode in which she was recognized by "national younger sister" IU, saying that IU's mention was a great honor.

The broadcast will also showcase cross-generational chemistry with national actor Park Geun-hyung. Won-hee charms the national actor's heart with MZ items for beauty fanatics (cosmetic product devotees), and when she receives an on-the-spot offer to become a "theater actor," the unexpected turn adds to the laughs.

She also brings up her childhood dream of becoming a magician and volunteers to be national magician Choi Hyun-woo's "one-day assistant," performing magic tricks and party pieces. Word has it she captivated the studio with such an active presence that it was hard to believe it was her first terrestrial talk-variety appearance.

You can see Won-hee's fresh charm, candid wit and unexpected variety sense on Radio Star, which airs on the 14th at 10:30 p.m.
