For Estella's Ko Woosim visited 'Radio Star' as his first entertainment program after being discharged from the military. Equipped with an unbeatable cave vocal range known as 'unicorn voice' and a surprising charm that captivated 'figure skating queen' Kim Yuna, he is expected to capture the viewers' eyes and ears at once.
The MBC 'Radio Star' airing today (18th), planned by Kang Young-sun and directed by Kim Myung-yeop, Hwang Yoon-sang, and Byun Da-hee, is themed as a 'Mr. Voice' special featuring Kim Tae-kyun, Cheon Nok-dam, Lee Dae-hyung, and Ko Woosim.
Ko Woosim has gained great love from fans at home and abroad as a member of the crossover group For Estella since winning 'Phantom Singer 2.' After serving in the military following his marriage to 'figure skating queen' Kim Yuna, he appears on 'Radio Star' as his first entertainment program and expresses his determination, stating, "I want to be evaluated for my entertainment skills for future activities."
He bragged, "I can handle the lowest vocal range among basses," showcasing his unique cave voice, while the MCs couldn't hide their surprise, saying, "It's really amazing." He also presented an impersonation parade, including one of 'Han Seok-kyu,' drawing continuous admiration from MC Kim Gura.
In addition, he confessed that videos of stage reactions from overseas fans have generated significant buzz, revealing that he also went on a tour in five cities in the U.S., showing his popularity that transcends borders. Ko Woosim recounted, "After seeing the Arabian Nights stage, they said I looked like the genie of the lamp," and reenacted the solo performance that earned him the nickname 'Disney villain' in the studio, receiving applause for his unique charm and energy.
He naturally unfolds the story from dating to marriage with his wife, Kim Yuna. He revealed, "We met at 24 and had a secret relationship for four years," and mentioned that his wife was the one who contacted him first before they started dating, sharing behind-the-scenes about the two proposals he made. In particular, his revelation that Kim Yuna encouraged him with a cool, "Go ahead and come back" during his military service was met with the MCs' admiration.
He also publicly shares episodes from his military service visits. He stated, "When my wife written 'Kim Yuna' on the visitor list, the whole unit flipped out," and he narrates the romantic trip to Paris they took together after his discharge, expressing the affectionate daily life of newlyweds.
Ko Woosim is currently preparing for For Estella's comeback in July, as well as a concert tour in Seoul, Busan, and Daegu. At the end of the broadcast, he is expected to impress everyone with his ability to freely switch between low and high notes, proving the true value of his 'unicorn voice.'
Ko Woosim's surprising charm and first entertainment ceremony after his discharge will be showcased tonight (18th) at 10:30 p.m. on the live broadcast of 'Radio Star.'
'Radio Star' continues to receive steady love as a unique talk show that draws out the true stories of guests through the unpredictable banter of its MCs.
