On February 26, KBS confirmed that the popular actor will lead the highly anticipated seventh season of The Seasons, making history as the show’s first-ever actor MC.

The new season, officially titled Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile, was personally named by Park Bo Gum, inspired by the musical term “cantabile,” meaning “in a singing style.”

The title also brings back memories of his role in the KBS2 music drama Tomorrow Cantabile, which aired 11 years ago.

Fans have also seen him play the piano and sing on KBS music shows like Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook and The Seasons – Zico’s Artist. A recent teaser even showed him dancing, raising curiosity about what kind of performances he’ll bring to the stage!

While he’s already proven his hosting skills on Music Bank, Baeksang Arts Awards, and MAMA, this will be his first time leading a full-fledged music program.

Reports say he is preparing for his first recording with great excitement, as being part of a music show has been a longtime dream of his.

With Lee Young Ji’s The Seasons – Rainbow recently wrapping up with a tearful farewell, all eyes are now on Park Bo Gum to see how he will make the show his own.

Shim Hyung Tak has introduced his newborn son, and people can’t stop talking about how much he resembles BTS’s Jungkook!

On the February 26 episode of Channel A’s Men’s Life These Days: Groom Class, the show gave viewers an update on Shim Hyung Tak and his wife Saya after they welcomed their baby boy.

During the show, Lee Seung Chul couldn’t help but notice how exhausted Shim looked from parenting duties.

Shim explained, “I was up with the baby until 6:30 AM today. I take care of him from 11 PM to 7 AM while my wife sleeps. Then, when she wakes up, I sleep, and we take turns raising him together.”

Shim also opened up about his wife’s tough labor experience. He shared, “She was in labor for 12 hours. A nurse even told me, ‘The mother was incredible. She endured the pain without even groaning.’” He expressed how grateful he was to his wife for her strength.

As the couple moved into a postpartum care center, they finally revealed their baby’s face for the first time. The cast members were in awe, exclaiming, “He’s so beautiful!”

Moon Se Yoon couldn’t hold back his reaction and joked, “He looks exactly like his mom and dad. Did he get a nose job before he was born?”

Shim Jin Hwa then made a surprising comment, saying, “I think he looks more like BTS’s Jungkook than his dad.” To this, Shim Hyung Tak laughed and replied, “I hope so.” Moon Se Yoon added, “He’s definitely going to be more handsome than you.”

Fans are already excited to see more of Shim Hyung Tak’s son, wondering if he’ll grow up to be as charming as Jungkook!
