YG’s Lee Seung-hoon has extraordinary aspirations… ‘6 o’clock hometown’ sortie

Singer Seunghoon Lee of YG Entertainment will appear on ‘My Hometown at 6’ after his solo debut in 10 years.

On KBS 1TV's '6 o'clock My Hometown', on Tuesdays, 'Long Live the Promotional Business', which helps farmers who are short of workers and promotes agricultural products from their hometown. Publicity trader Baek Seung-il heads to Boryeong, South Chungcheong Province to harvest and promote summer grapes. Today, Seunghoon Lee of the hip-hop idol group Winner is joining us as a special promotional member.

Seunghoon Lee is surprised as soon as he meets a former public relations manager. Lee Seung-hoon, who ambitiously returned from being an idol group member to becoming a solo singer, said he wanted to use this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone: promoting a new song and promoting local agricultural products. Public Relations Manager Baek Seung-il and Winner's Lee Seung-hoon go to the vineyard together.

The grapes of Sahyeon Village in Boryeong City, which are said to be the second of the nine flavors of Boryeong, are sweetest due to the good soil and sea breeze blowing from the sea. Public Relations Manager and Seunghoon Lee try freshly picked grapes and are surprised by their sweetness. Measure the sugar content yourself and be surprised twice, once by the taste and once by the eyes.

Seunghoon Lee is a popular idol, but today he puts down his singer clothes and transforms into a reliable worker in the vineyard, helping with the grape harvest. The public relations business is trying to show the skills of an experienced worker with 4 years of experience to a novice worker, but it is rumored that the public relations business' constant mistakes made people laugh.

Two people set off to promote the grapes, loaded with sweetness. We will start promoting by going to Daecheon Beach, famous for the Boryeong Mud Festival. Lee Seung-hoon tried to show off his side as a Hallyu star, but he was embarrassed by the number of tourists who were not as numerous as expected. The first customer was the mother of a ‘6 o’clock hometown’ fan who works at the beach. It is said that Lee Seung-hoon was surprised by the popularity of the public relations business when his mother responded, “I know about the public relations business, but Seung-Hoon doesn’t know much about it.”

Next, Seunghoon Lee promotes his talent by singing his new song ‘That’s Just My Style’, which he reworked with ‘Boryeong grapes’. In addition, he shows off his proficient English skills, worthy of a Korean Wave star, to a family of foreign guests he meets by chance. Let's check out the charm of Boryeong grapes that are spreading globally and the fantastic chemistry created by the PR business and Seunghoon.

Lee Seung-hoon, who first appeared as a contestant on a TV audition program and is loved as a versatile rapper for the hip-hop idol group Winner, expressed his ambition, saying, "I want to receive love from seniors across the country with this solo album."

Lee Seung-hoon's performance, which even created a promotional video for Boryeong grapes with his new song 'Just My Style' to captivate viewers of '6 O'clock My Hometown', will be revealed at 6 PM on the 16th on KBS 1TV's '6 O'clock My Hometown'.
