Producer duo GroovyRoom is parting ways with H1GHR MUSIC after seven years together.

GroovyRoom, made up of Hwimin and Gyujeong, will release their new double single 'AT H1GHR' on July 23rd. This release marks the end of their exclusive contract with H1GHR MUSIC.

'AT H1GHR' is their first album in six months, following their January single 'Yes or No.' The album includes double title tracks 'IG' and 'FASHO.'

One of the tracks, 'FASHO,' features a star-studded lineup with pH-1, HAON, TRADE L, Woodie Gochild, BIG Naughty, Sik-K, Jay Park, and lIlBOI. This collaboration has created a lot of excitement in the hip-hop community.

The track 'FASHO' samples T-ara's 'DAY BY DAY.' GroovyRoom is known for their great sampling work, like on 'Yes or No,' which sampled Brown Eyed Girls' 'Love.' Fans are eager to hear their new take on 'FASHO.'

The music video for 'FASHO' will feature all the artists involved. GroovyRoom and the H1GHR MUSIC team have shown great synergy before, like with their 2022 single 'BRB.' With 'AT H1GHR,' GroovyRoom aims to end their time with H1GHR MUSIC on a high note.

The other title track, 'IG,' grabs listeners with its catchy guitar riff and lively bass. TRADE L, Jay Park, GEMINI, and WOODZ all contribute to this track.

H1GHR MUSIC said, "GroovyRoom has been with us since the start in 2017. We’ll continue to support each other and work together in the future."

GroovyRoom is a well-known producer team in Korean hip-hop. They will keep making music as the heads of their own label, AT AREA.

KBS is getting ready to shake up its 2025 spring variety lineup, and one of the most talked-about shows is Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile!

On March 7, KBS held a press conference at the KBS International Conference Room in Yeouido, Seoul, to introduce its upcoming variety programs. Several CPs (chief producers) attended the event, including Park Seok-hyung, who is directing Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile.

During the event, CP Park Seok-hyung explained why Park Bo Gum was chosen as the host. "Having Park Bo Gum as the MC was a bit of a challenge for us. Respect is crucial in a music talk show, and we felt that Park Bo Gum, with his deep love for music, would be able to communicate well with musicians."

This decision is a big first for KBS—until now, the network’s signature music talk show, The Seasons, has always been hosted by singers.

Now, with an actor like Park Bo Gum taking the lead, the show is expected to bring a new and refreshing vibe to the genre.

Alongside Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile, KBS is bringing back some beloved shows and exciting new programs:

Kang Ho Dong will return as the host of Study and Nolbu, a quiz talk show for parents and children.

The Problematic Men of the Rooftop Room, which ran for seven years starting in 2018, is making a comeback.

Ballunteer will feature former soccer star Lee Young-pyo and singer Lee Chan-won as they take on hilarious futsal challenges.

Actress Lee Min-jung will host Going and Coming Lee Min-jung, a wholesome rural reality show where she sells goods with other actors.

Meanwhile, KBS’s legendary comedy show Gag Concert is officially returning on March 16, moving to prime time on Sundays at 9:20 PM KST.

Here’s when you can catch these exciting new and returning shows:
Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile – Every Friday at 10 PM KST, starting March 14
Gag Concert – March 16 (Sundays at 9:20 PM KST)
Study and Nolbu – March 31 (Mondays at 9:50 PM KST)

With Park Bo Gum stepping into a brand-new challenge as a music talk show MC, fans are eagerly waiting to see if he will rise to the occasion and bring something fresh to KBS’s long-running series.
