The 592nd episode of KBS 2TV's 'Immortal Songs', which will air on the 4th, will be featured as a special feature '2023 Oh My Star', with Sunye & Jo Kwon, Hong Jin-young & Park Gwang-seon, Lee Bo-ram & HYNN (Park Hye-won), Jeong Sun-ah & Min Woo-hyuk, Nam Sang-il & Shin Seung-tae, Park Wan-gyu & A total of 10 teams will appear, including Yoon Seong, Kim Jo-han & UV, Yoon Hyeong-ju & Glass Box, Kim Young-im & Yang Ji-eun, and Kim Ho-jung & Espero.
In a recent recording, Espero drew attention by praising his senior Kim Ho-joong, calling him “a textbook and standard person in the crossover world.” He then boasts, “He bought me rice several times, but he always bought me Korean beef.” Lee Chan-won, who heard this, said, “I know this exactly, but it’s because I want to eat it,” and Kim Jun-hyun also agreed, saying, “I do the same,” making people laugh.
Kim Ho-jung & Espero are scheduled to perform on stage and collaborate with Lee Seung-cheol's 'Western Sky', and fans have high expectations for what 'Western Sky', reinterpreted as a crossover genre, will be like.
This special feature is based on the concept of star seniors who have gone before and juniors who are following in their footsteps on the same stage, and it is expected to be a refreshing stimulus for seniors and a dream-like honor for juniors. 'Oh My Star' is a special feature that was first planned in 2021 and received great love, and will be featured for the third time this year following 2022.
While expectations are high on what kind of stage the seniors and juniors of these 10 teams will perform, fans are also paying attention to which team will receive the honor of winning the final championship with the support of many famous song judges.
