Interpreter and broadcaster Ahn Hyun-mo appears on MBC's Radio Star and shares vivid on-site stories from when she served as master of ceremonies for the 2025 Gyeongju APEC international meeting attended by leaders of 21 countries. She draws attention by recounting the tense moments and unexpected situations she faced as an international event host, including a breathtaking behind-the-scenes story when she was alone in the same space with U.S. President Trump.
Today's (11th) broadcast of Radio Star (produced by Chey Yoon-chung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee) is presented as a Too Much TALK GPT special featuring Lee Dong-jin, Ahn Hyun-mo, Orbit, and Nucksal.
Last year Ahn Hyun-mo served as the master of ceremonies for the APEC CEO Summit Korea 2025 held in Gyeongju, Korea. He revealed that the event unfolded differently than expected because the leaders' schedules were delayed. He recalled having to explain the situation directly to the audience and apologize, and remembered the moment he received applause amid the unexpected circumstances.
She recalls the moment she was alone in the same space with U.S. President Trump under tight security and tells behind-the-scenes stories that perk up listeners. She also shares unforgettable episodes from being alongside high-profile figures from various countries, including NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Samsung chairman Lee Jae-yong.
Ahn Hyun-mo also shares the story of being at this APEC site with her aunt, who has worked as a first-generation international interpreter. Ahn, who said it was the first time she hosted an event while her aunt interpreted, noted that having a family familiar with languages and the international stage was a great strength, and naturally continued the conversation about the "language genius" elite family DNA.
She reveals the chemistry she has built producing YouTube content with Lee Dong-jin and Orbit. She explains that when the three get together the conversation never stops, and Ahn Hyun-mo's frank revelation that made Lee Dong-jin burst out laughing adds to the studio's amusement.
This evening at 10:30 p.m. broadcast.
