'Radio Star' guest Koo Hye-sun visits the studio once again with the greeting "It feels like I come out every new year." As she has made each spoken wish come true, she actually brought to market the hair rollers she introduced on last year's broadcast, and she returns this year with another notable update. Her expansion from actress to inventor raises curiosity.
Today (21) MBC 'Radio Star' (planned by Chey Yoon-chung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee) is presented as a '2026 malmalmal: say it as you mean it!' special featuring Lee Keum-hee, Yeom Kyung-hwan, Koo Hye-sun and Jeon Min-gi.
Koo Hye-sun chose the path of an adult student, graduating at the top of her class from Sungkyunkwan University and later achieving early graduation from the KAIST graduate school with the mindset that "I wanted to try doing what I say." The MCs repeatedly nod at her story that she voiced goals first and kept those promises to herself like vows.
On this broadcast, Koo Hye-sun's changed look naturally becomes a topic. After changing the first digit of her weight to 4 and completing the look with a hairstyle and floral accessories, she evokes memories of Geum Jan-di from 'Boys Over Flowers' and instantly lifts the studio mood.
Also revealed are behind-the-scenes stories of her work as a composer and the anecdote of singer Lee Juck personally visiting. Showing a song on the spot and revealing her side as a musician, Koo Hye-sun, who has been an actress, film director, painter, composer and inventor, shares her multifaceted path in her characteristically candid manner, adding humor.
Especially memorable is Koo Hye-sun's principled remark, "If you don't say it, you'll give up." She calmly yet breezily recounts experiences of confronting misunderstandings and stares directed at her in the past, and a story about neutralizing the firepower of anti-fans is revealed, turning the studio into a sea of laughter.
The casting backstory for Geum Jan-di in 'Boys Over Flowers' is not left out. Explaining the audition circumstances, she tells the story of winning the role through an action she took confidently, impressing everyone.
Koo Hye-sun's real-life story of making dreams come true across many fields through 'saying it as you mean it' can be seen on 'Radio Star,' airing tonight (21) Wednesday at 10:30 p.m.
Meanwhile, 'Radio Star' is loved as a unique talk show where the MCs' razor-sharp wit, which can go anywhere, disarms guests and draws out their true stories.
