Super rookie Joe Chae-joos, who has emerged from 'Immortal Song,' smiles brightly at KBS's special treatment.
The 705th episode of KBS 2TV's entertainment program 'Immortal Song' (abbreviated as Immortal) airing today (10th) unfolds as part 2 of the 'Artist Juhyunmi' special.
On this day, Joe Chae-joos is recognized as the 2025 'Immortal Song' super rookie by MC Lee Chan-won. Lee Chan-won introduces Joe Chae-joos's appearance by saying, 'This person is the 2025 'Immortal Song' super rookie,' formally certifying Joe Chae-joos after naming him as the super rookie following Hyo-rin, Ali, Shin Yong-jae, Ailee, Moon Myung-jin, Son Seung-yeon, Hwang Chi-yeol, Min Woo-hyuk, Kim Yong-jin, and Yoo Hwae-seung.
Lee Chan-won then praises Joe Chae-joos for achieving 3 million views on the video of his winning performance of 'West Sky' just one month after his grant. Unable to hide his joy, Joe Chae-joos noted, 'Thanks to this, I have a chicken commercial lined up,' causing envy from MC Kim Jun-hyun. He also expressed his ambition as a newcomer by saying, 'I want to earn a little more,' receiving cheers.
In particular, the news of Joe Chae-joos's appearance on 'Music Bank' shakes up the talk waiting room, adding excitement. Lee Chan-won was startled by this news, exclaiming, 'Is this real?' The 41-year-old rookie Joe Chae-joos, who has been debuting for four months, humbly apologized to idol fans nationwide, making the scene burst into laughter.
Moreover, Lee Chan-won added that Joe Chae-joos conducted a pre-recording that only popular idols or senior veterans can do and used the waiting room exclusively, startling everyone once again. In response, Joe Chae-joos quipped, 'There seems to have been a mistake. I guess they thought I was a senior just by looking at my face,' then vowed, 'I will do my best as KBS's new son,' receiving applause from Kim Jun-hyun and Lee Chan-won.
Meanwhile, on this day, Joe Chae-joos takes on the role of a senior for his junior Cheon Nok-dam, who is 'one month into debut,' and provocatively says, 'I was quite impressed after seeing today's performance. I'll try to perform based on that.' He praised Cheon Nok-dam but soon added, 'But before winning, is there any distinction between yours and mine?' demonstrating his determination to win. The stage of the 2025 'Immortal Song' super rookie Joe Chae-joos will be revealed in the main broadcast of 'Immortal Song.'
The 'Artist Juhyunmi' special, which carries the glory of the 40th anniversary of debut with 'Immortal Song,' will meet viewers today (10th) with part 2 following the broadcast of part 1 on the 3rd. It airs every Saturday at 6:05 p.m.
