Young K Joins 'Amazing Saturday' as a Permanent Cast Member

Young K, a member of the band DAY6, is set to join the tvN variety show 'Amazing Saturday' as a permanent cast member.

On the 6th, a representative from tvN confirmed, "Young K will be joining 'Amazing Saturday' as a permanent member." Young K participated in the recording that took place on the same day, and the episode featuring him will air on the 28th.

'Amazing Saturday' is a cross-generational music variety show where cast members play a game of transcribing song lyrics to win popular foods from markets across the country. Last December, former permanent members Park Na-rae and SHINee's Key left the show due to various controversies. Young K will fill their spots and join the existing cast, including Shin Dong-yup, Moon Se-yoon, Kim Dong-hyun, Nucksal, Hanhae, Taeyeon, and P.O.

Young K debuted with the band DAY6 in September 2015 and has released numerous hit songs such as 'Congratulations' and 'You Were Beautiful,' earning widespread popularity. Having previously showcased his witty charm on various variety shows like MBC's 'Hangout with Yoo,' there is much anticipation for what Young K will bring to 'Amazing Saturday.'
