MBC's 'Radio Star' (planned by Choi Yoon-jung / directed by Yoon Hye-jin, Hwang Yoon-sang, Byun Da-hee) will feature Kim Won-jun, Jo Hye-ryun, Hanhae, and Gree in a special episode titled 'SHOW! Walking the Flower Path~'. The four guests will share pivotal moments and their current lives with humor and sincerity, resonating deeply with the audience.

Kim Won-jun reminisces about his past when he applied for talent auditions at the three major broadcasting companies during his time at Seoul Institute of the Arts, only to be rejected in the first round based solely on his looks. He later debuted as a model through an advertising agency's choice and embarked on a singing career. He shares the behind-the-scenes story of how his self-composed song 'After Everyone Sleeps' was chosen as the title track, leading him to instant stardom, and recalls the attention he received for his resemblance to Leslie Cheung.

Kim Won-jun addresses the so-called 'no-fun frame' imposed on him by Yoo Jae-suk, expressing his frustration that his serious remarks were misinterpreted on variety shows. Jo Hye-ryun humorously responded, "I'm getting tired of it," bringing laughter to the studio.
