Singer Jeon Somi will release a new song at the end of this month (October) and set out to solidify her 'Trend Solo'.

As a result of the coverage of Xports News on October 14, Jeon Somi will release a new song at the end of this month and return to the music industry. This is the first high-speed comeback in about 3 months since 'DUMB DUMB', which was released in August.

Jeon Somi took the top spot in the domestic music charts with 'Dumb Dumb' and established herself as a 'Trend Solo' by continuing the chart-built box office for a long time. In addition, the music video not only surpassed 10 million views on YouTube within a day of releasing the music video, but also popularized the point choreography, 'Batman Dance', and gained global popularity with the 'Dumb Dumb' challenge.

Jeon Somi, who released 'Dumb Dumb' in about a year after 'What You Waiting For' released in July of last year and achieved significant results such as #1 on music shows, made a quick comeback at the end of this month and released 'Solo'. I am determined to solidify my position as 'Queen'.

Jeon Somi made her debut as a project group I.O.I in 2016, and made a new start with her solo debut in 2019. Jeon Somi, who has released three singles and has become a popular artist with her own charm, is looking forward to what kind of musical growth she will show this time.

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
