MBN's 'Active Singer King', which will be broadcast for the first time at 9:10 pm on the 28th, is a survival entertainment show that selects the top 7 'top female active trot singers' representing Korea to participate in the 'Korea-Japan Trot King Competition' to be held in 2024. Seo Hye-jin's division, which planned and produced 'Miss Trot', 'Mr. Trot', and 'Flaming Trotman', gathered active Trot singers who are currently active in the Korean Trot scene on one stage.
In relation to this, in the recording of 'Active King of Singers', those who are actively active in the industry confessed the unique past history and painful stories they experienced directly on the trot stage, which brought tears to their eyes. Shin Dong-yeop, who is famous for his natural progression that establishes the central axis of the program, also surprised everyone by losing his composure at every moment and getting upset.
In particular, Shin Dong-yeop's eyes were filled with tears when an active singer confessed to him belatedly that he had secretly been fighting the disease, feeling desperate that he might no longer be able to sing because cancer was discovered during his career after performing a perfect performance. In addition, he lamented and sympathized with the story of being frustrated by the public's interest and the hardships of life, which he thought would be a solid path after participating in a famous contest, but the public's interest cooled off.
In addition, Shin Dong-yeop gave painful stories that seemed like they would appear in a drama, such as a participant who said that he cried a lot after confirming his entry to 'Active Singer', and the inside story of the 'Queen of Events' who confessed that he had to run a whopping 150,000 km in a year after attending a local event the day before the broadcast. The scene was solemn as he could not continue talking about the story.
National producer Lee Ji-hye also responded to Hyeong-yeok’s song, in which she vents all the resentment she holds deep in her heart, saying, “As soon as I heard the first verse, it touched my heart. “My difficult life is completely melted into the song,” he continued, shedding tears, adding to the emotion. Who is the active singer who made everyone shed tears, including the 33 active members? The sad stories of active Korean trot singers who looked glamorous on stage are attracting attention.
The production team of ‘Active King of Singers’ said, “The calm confessions of the professionals who endured a difficult life filled with blood, sweat, and tears for a spectacular appearance on stage will move you like never before,” adding, “We will do everything with the determination and courage to become the top of the top.” “Please look forward to the ‘King of Active Singers’, the merciless struggle of those in active service who have put their lives on the line.”
