EXO's Suho opened up about his emotional connection to his friend while discussing the inspiration behind the lyrics of his track "Your Turn (Feat. Younha)" from his mini-album.

During the episode of KBS 2TV's "The Season-Zico's Artist" on the 7th, Suho made an appearance as a guest and reflected on his recent successful solo concert.

When Zico brought up, "I heard there's a song that resonated the most with the audience during the concert," Suho responded, "Yes, it's a song called 'Your Turn.'"

He went on, "I wrote the lyrics of this song while thinking about a close friend. We were tight even back in our trainee days and leaned on each other for support. We often talked about lifting each other's spirits. Whenever I faced tough times, listening to my friend's music brought me immense comfort," revealing his deep bond.

Furthermore, Suho shared the backstory of the lyrics, explaining, "I often felt indebted to this friend. Now, I've included lyrics with the idea that it's my turn to provide comfort."

Upon hearing this, Zico inquired, "So, did you create the song solely with that friend in mind?" Suho nodded in agreement.

Observing Suho's heartfelt reaction, Zico offered words of solace, saying, "I believe the person this song is dedicated to (the friend) will listen to it with a smile. We all hope your emotions reach him."

Suho, who performed "Your Turn" on stage, conveyed his sentiments, expressing, "Firstly, I hope that friend accepts my feelings, and I want to transmit the sentiments I received from him to all of you. I will strive to be an artist who brings solace through music and acting."

It is known that the song "Your Turn," for which Suho contributed to writing the lyrics, is dedicated to Jonghyun from the same-aged group SHINee.

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!
