Singer Hwanhee will clarify the controversy surrounding his financial struggles along with the behind-the-scenes story of his challenge in trot music. He will reveal touching moments.
The MBC program 'Radio Star,' airing at 10:30 p.m. on the 30th, will be themed around 'Seulgi’s clever colleague life,' featuring Lee Yeon-bok, Jang Shin-young, Brian, and Hwanhee.
Hwanhee recently spoke about his appearance on a trot program and directly addressed the controversy surrounding his financial struggles. He confessed, "In fact, my challenge in trot was not due to financial issues but because of my mother." He was moved by his mother's words, "I can't sing along to my son's songs," despite his long music career.
Hwanhee candidly said, "I thought trot was a genre that didn't suit me, so I had a lot of worries, but I made a big decision for my mother." Furthermore, as his challenge in trot became known, various reactions from fans followed.
Hwanhee shared a bittersweet behind-the-scenes moment, noting, "Fans sent DMs to Brian asking him to stop me from doing trot." In response, Brian said, "If this friend has chosen this path, we must respect it," and firmly stated, "Why should I stop him from doing what he wants to do?" This touched Hwanhee deeply, and he revealed, "I was greatly moved by Brian's feelings," highlighting their enduring friendship.
Regarding the controversy about financial struggles, Hwanhee clarified, "In the past, FLY TO THE SKY mentioned having difficulties when changing agencies, but this old episode resurfaced and created misunderstandings." He added, "Since it is not true, I did not refute it separately," conveying his honest stance.
In addition, Hwanhee revealed a story of unrequited love involving the couple Gummy and Jo Jung-seok along with Brian. Unaware of their past relationship, Brian asked Hwanhee whether Gummy had a boyfriend, to which Hwanhee, knowing about Jo Jung-seok, pretended not to know. He shared his honest backstory, stating he could not inform either Brian or Gummy and kept it to himself.
The heartfelt emotions between Hwanhee and his partner Brian, who have built a deep friendship, will explode in 'Radio Star,' airing at 10:30 p.m. on the 30th.
