• Girls' Generation's Yuri Playfully Confesses She's Fangirling Over Kim Ki Tae: “I'm a True Fan of Kim Ki Tae”

    Yuri from Girls' Generation has openly shared her admiration for the talented Kim Ki Tae.

    During the October 14th episode of KBS 2TV’s Syncro You, special MC JD1 (Jeong Dong Won) hosted an exciting lineup featuring Yuri, Kim Jong Min, and various stars like Jang Beom June, Huh Gak, Lim Kim, Kang Hyung Ho, and BOL4. These artists have all shown their incredible skills through different audition programs, and they came together for some unforgettable performances.

    In the show, Jang Beom June performed “Get Up,” Huh Gak sang “Monologue,” Kim Ki Tae took on “Is There Anybody,” Lim Kim delivered “Spring Days Are Gone,” Kang Hyung Ho shared “I Love You,” and BOL4 performed “LOVE DIVE.” A thrilling twist in the episode was figuring out which performances featured AI and which had real artists.

    One of the biggest surprises was the formation of a “dream team” trio with Huh Gak, Kim Ki Tae, and Kang Hyung Ho. They chose to cover Yoo Jung Seok’s “The Road of Storm,” building excitement for a performance that promised to be amazing.

    As the studio got ready for this trio’s stage, Yoo Jae Suk remarked, “It sounds like they’re going to blow the stage away. You won’t see a performance like this anywhere else. It’s incredibly powerful,” showing his amazement.

    Then, Yuri couldn’t hold back her excitement and confessed, “I’m a true fan of Kim Ki Tae.” She added, “I hope it’s real. I want to hear it soon!” Meanwhile, Lee Juck expressed his hope that this unexpected combination would feature real singers and not AI.

    The Syncro You production team teased that Episode 5 would showcase the best performances seen across all music programs, promising viewers jaw-dropping moments from these talented artists.

    Yuri's enthusiasm and admiration for Kim Ki Tae really added to the excitement of the episode, and fans can't wait to see what happens next!
