Choi Yoori explained that the idea behind the show is to create a space where people can comfortably share their small worries and receive emotional healing through music. "I wanted to create a place where people can talk about their unsaid stories and feel comforted through music," she said. Her warm voice and unique perspective will make this show a special experience for everyone watching.

What sets Listen! Yoori's Forest apart from other talk shows is the live performance segment, where Choi Yoori will reinterpret her guests’ hit songs in her own style. Fans can expect new, emotional versions of popular songs, offering fresh and deeply touching performances.

Each episode of the show features a heartwarming moment where the guest plants a small tree and a personal message in a terrarium, symbolizing the growth of Yoori's Forest. This gesture represents a journey of empathy, healing, and connection, going beyond just entertainment.

Listen! Yoori's Forest is a collaboration between Choi Yoori and Dingo, combining Dingo’s stylish direction and deep storytelling with Choi Yoori’s empathetic hosting. The show is set to offer unforgettable moments of healing to all who tune in.

The show’s main segment, Yoori's Forest Music Concert, will see the guest either performing their hits or introducing their hidden gems in Choi Yoori’s unique style. There will also be fun segments, like psychological tests and the stories behind unreleased songs, offering a fresh twist compared to other talk shows.

The very first episode will feature SEVENTEEN’s main vocalist, Seungkwan, as the guest. Seungkwan has shown his love for Choi Yoori’s music in the past, even covering her debut song "Circle" for his birthday last year. Fans got a sneak peek of their collaboration when Seungkwan released a live video covering Choi Yoori’s song “To Love” on January 7, building excitement for the show.

Kim Jae Joong couldn’t hold back his tears as he experienced an emotional moment with his father.

On April 4, the KBS 2TV show "New Menu Launching: Pyeon Restaurant" aired a heartwarming episode where Kim Jae Joong, the youngest of nine siblings, threw a special celebration for his parents’ 60th wedding anniversary.

The star took charge of everything—planning, organizing, and hosting the event—as a grand gesture to show his gratitude for everything his parents had done for him and his siblings.

Kim Jae Joong rented a luxurious banquet hall at a five-star hotel for the celebration. He made sure to select food that would please all of his family, including his parents and siblings.

With his large family in attendance, the venue was filled with love and joy. Kim Jae Joong’s nine siblings all bowed deeply to thank their parents for raising them, showing immense respect and love.

As his father saw all of his children gathered in one place, he couldn’t help but express his pride, saying, “Are all these really my children?” But his emotions quickly took a turn as he shared his feelings of regret. “I feel sorry that I couldn’t do better for you, I’m sorry I couldn’t do as much as others did. But I’m so thankful that you all grew up so well,” he said, with tears starting to form in his eyes.

It was the first time Kim Jae Joong had seen his father cry. Overcome with emotion, he said, “I know my father’s life very well, so I couldn’t help but cry too.” The entire family shared in the tears, shouting, “We love you, Dad,” creating an unforgettable moment that moved everyone to tears.

The touching episode aired on April 4 at 8:30 PM, showing viewers the deep love and gratitude Kim Jae Joong and his siblings have for their parents.
