Jang Do-yeon said that she wanted to decorate the 'Webtoon Singer' stage with a webtoon in the 'horror' genre.
On the 14th, an online production presentation for TVING's new original entertainment show 'Webtoon Singer' was held. Producer Hwang Seong-ho, who directed the production, and MCs SHINee's Minho, Yoo Se-yoon, and Jang Do-yeon attended.
SHINee Minho said that while watching the contestants' performances, he thought he wanted to go on stage too. In response, Jang Do-yeon said, “I want to use autotune from beginning to end to give viewers goosebumps. “If it's horror, I think it might be worth a try,” he said, laughing. Yoo Se-yoon, who has released music, said, “I like feeling different when planning content. “If I were to do it, I think I would have to do a comedy, but I want to do a romance that gives a sense of heterogeneity,” he said. When I said that he seemed like a person with a lot of love, Yoo Se-yoon joked, “It seems like there are a lot of things I haven't solved yet.”
'Webtoon Singer' boasted that it was the 'next level music show'. Producer Hwang said, “Many existing music shows were able to be viewed and enjoyed by on-site audiences. “When introducing and expressing webtoons, we tried not to limit the musical and performance direction, whether it was XR, AR like Hyorin's stage, or a stage where a band came out and played,” he said, emphasizing technological differentiation. He continued, “Dancers came out and expressed themselves through dance and even joined in when the singer sang. “We also tried to express the main media and materials from the webtoon through stage settings,” he said, adding that the directing and stage settings were also differentiated.
Jang Do-yeon said, “Before we go on stage, we invite the author to talk about webtoons. “After hearing the behind-the-scenes footage and seeing the stage, I think I can enjoy it more than if I just saw a great stage,” he said. He continued, “This is a program that webtoon fans will also remember a lot from.”
'Webtoon Singer' is a music show where scalable K-webtoons and talented K-pop artists come together to present a storytelling stage. It will be released on the 17th.
