Actress Choi Kang-hee reveals the reason why she returned to being a radio DJ after 12 years. Choi Kang-hee's return is said to have been influenced by actress Kim Hye-ja's decisive words, raising curiosity.

MBC's entertainment show 'Radio Star', which will be aired on the 12th, will feature a special feature called 'Which planet are you from?' featuring Choi Kang-hee, Lee Sang-yeop, Choi Hyun-woo, Orbit, and Choi Y-na.

Prior to the broadcast, 'Choi Kang-hee, passion for acting that she rediscovered after taking a break from activities. “I think acting is the best.” Is she finally returning to acting?' A pre-release video of the title has been released. When MC Yoo Se-yoon asked, “You returned as a radio DJ after 12 years?” Choi Kang-hee replied that announcer Ji-hye Shin had been selected as the successor to CBS Radio, which she had hosted for 25 years, and that she was hosting ‘Choi Kang-hee’s Movie Music.’

However, the reason Choi Kang-hee returned as a radio DJ was because of a word from Kim Hye-ja. Choi Kang-hee, who developed a close relationship with Kim Hye-ja while doing volunteer work, said, “When I said, ‘I’m giving up acting,’ Teacher Kim Hye-ja supported me and even bought me food.”

However, as time passed and Choi Kang-hee said hello for the first time in a long time, Kim Hye-ja suddenly said, “Choi Kang-hee was so mean,” and she was very embarrassed. Choi Kang-hee said, “Teacher Kim Hye-ja said, ‘Choi Kang-hee becoming a celebrity must have been a source of pride for her mother, so what kind of pleasure will she have now?’ “At that time, I thought, ‘I was only thinking about myself,’” he recalled.

Just then, a call came to recruit a radio DJ, and Choi Kang-hee remembered Kim Hye-ja's words and readily accepted the invitation. He said, “These days, when I go home after radio recording, my mom always has my earphones in. “She also participates in radio comments, and (her daughter) says she feels really good and really happy when she sees the complimentary comments,” she said proudly.

When asked about Choi Kang-hee's return to acting as a radio DJ, Choi Kang-hee said, "I think I'm best at acting," and revealed that she realized her passion for acting while taking a break. He said, “We are reviewing the script now.” Everyone burst into applause at the announcement of the actor's return after three years. In response, Choi Kang-hee raised expectations by conveying her wish, saying, “I want to do all the roles that I can play best, whether they are big or small, old or not.”

The special feature of ‘Which Star Are You From?’ featuring the original 4D actor Choi Kang-hee, Lee Sang-yeop, Choi Hyun-woo, Orbit, and Choi Y-na can be seen on ‘Radio Star’, which airs at 10:30 pm on the same day.
