• Fans decide who should replace IVE's Jang Wonyoung on "Music Bank" now that she's leaving

    Who would be your pick?


    IVE's Wonyoung has been the host of Music Bank for more than a year.

    Today, it was announced that she would be leaving the job.

    She has been a co-host of the music show since October 2021, and her last show will be on January 13. After ENHYPEN member Sunghoon left in September, Lee Chae Min became her co-host.

    He will stay in his job at Music Bank.

    Because of this, K-Pop fans are now wondering who might replace Wonyoung as co-host of the music show in the future.

    Since one co-host is usually a man and the other is usually a woman, it's likely that it will be another female idol.

    A post on an online forum with the title "Who do you think will be the new Music Bank MC?" was used to talk about the subject.

    Even though many different names were mentioned, Haewon of NMIXX seemed to come up more often than the others.

    Haewon was just a guest host on Music Bank with Lee Chae Min a few days ago, and she got a lot of praise for her work.

    People loved how good she was at hosting, how bubbly she was, and how well she got along with her co-host.

    Many fans think that she would be great as a permanent host for Music Bank because of this.

    I hope Haewon can pull it off.


    I think Haewon would be successful.


    My wish is Haewonie


    Haewon. She did so well as the host of a special


    There's no doubt in my mind that Haewon will be the next MC. Her guest spot was a hit, and JYP would want to take advantage of that. She's also funny and easy to talk to.


    They'd be stupid not to put Haewon. She's naturally funny, so her antics can go viral every week, just like the shorts her fans post on YouTube.


    Please call Haewon

    But quite a few other female K-Pop idols were mentioned in the comments of the post as well.

    The members of STAYC were also talked about a lot, especially Isa, who recently hinted that big news was coming soon.

    STAYC's Sieun for me!


    Woo!


    AhNana !'s would be good too"


    STAYC's Isa is my big wish


    Isa of STAYC was giving us a hint. Could it be her ?


    Definitely one of the STAYC girls, Sieun, Yoon, or maybe Sumin or Isa.


    Isa from STAYC hinted at some big news, and I think it's her


    Minji… I love the sound of her voice!

    Who do you think should be the next co-host of Music Bank?
