Model Lee Sora and Hong Jin Kyung reunite after 15 years to deliver shocking banter and a heart-tugging life story.
The new MBC variety show Sora and Jin Kyung, which premieres today (26) at 9:10 p.m., depicts Lee Sora and Hong Jin Kyung breaking a long hiatus to face each other. In a previously released teaser that piqued curiosity with an awkward reunion filled with silence, the two continue with full-fledged "Hollywood-level" blunt conversation in the full broadcast.
In particular, Lee Sora shook the set with an unreserved joke aimed at the ever-active Hong Jin Kyung, saying, "When you turn on the TV, it's Hong Jin Kyung. She became the 'female Shin Dong-yeob.'" Even the veteran entertainer Hong Jin Kyung reportedly could not hide her embarrassment at the highbrow humor fitting of a "cool older sister" who represents Korea.
Their conversation leads to deep life confessions. Unlike Lee Sora, who is single, she expressed affection for Hong Jin Kyung, who experienced major changes such as marriage and childbirth. In this process, records of Hong Jin Kyung's eventful life are gradually unveiled. Hong Jin Kyung is expected to provide a heavy emotional impact to living rooms by frankly recounting not only her feelings while enduring six rounds of chemotherapy during her illness, but also the past days she silently cared for the children Hwanhee and Junhee of the late Choi Jin-sil.
