'Ear candy' main MC singer Sung Si Kyung even eyes the MC seat of 'Happy Together.'
Sung Si Kyung reveals his ambition to be a main MC on KBS' Happy Together - glad not to be alone.'
On the 21st (Fri) at 8:30 p.m., the sixth episode of 'Happy Together' will feature the 'horn-rimmed trio' Yu Jae-seok, Jang Hang-jun and Yoon Jongshin, along with special MC Kwon Yuri of preliminary group C and Sung Si Kyung of preliminary group D meeting their life teammates.
Meanwhile, Sung Si Kyung draws attention by appearing as the fourth special MC of 'Happy Together.' Recently active as the MC of 'Ear candy,' Sung Si Kyung eyes recruitment to the powerful lineup of 'Happy Together.'
Sung Si Kyung brightened at the contestants' glamorous credentials, from 'Yoo Jae-ha competition gold prize winner' to '5,000 wedding song teams,' then lamented, saying, "You should have appeared on 'Ear candy' first," drawing the older hosts' reproach. But unlike his early restraint, Sung Si Kyung gradually soaked up the charm of 'Happy Together' and even aims for the show's main MC. He went as far as to say, "Welcome to 'our' program," showing a sense of ownership that pleased the hosts, according to reports.
Meanwhile, expectations rise as Sung Si Kyung is said to deliver piercing, blunt critiques. When Yoon Jongshin, Sung Si Kyung's long-time audition judging partner, testified about his judging style, saying, "Si Kyung really delivers harsh words," Sung Si Kyung revealed his distinct conviction, saying, "I also want to be warm, but when someone does not know well what they cannot do, (harsh words) come out." He then displayed the coolheaded 'expert at blunt blows' side by saying, "For contestants who lack self-objectivity, you have to do your best to let them know 'you are really bad,'" surprising the F-type hosts. Jang Hang-jun then cheerfully asked, "Are you transforming your image today?" which reportedly turned the set into a sea of laughter.
It remains to be seen what laughs the ambitious MC Sung Si Kyung and the 'horn-rimmed trio' Yu Jae-seok, Jang Hang-jun and Yoon Jongshin's lively back-and-forth will deliver, and whether the day's contestants can avoid Sung Si Kyung's incisive critiques is eagerly anticipated.
Meanwhile, Sung Si Kyung is currently serving as the main MC of the KBS2 late-night music program The Seasons - Sung Si-kyung's Ear Candy and has been hosting it for five months. He also has a solo concert scheduled from September.
