I’m sure you’ve heard of “The Seasons” before with Jay Park, Jannabi’s Choi Jung Hoon, and AKMU as the hosts. Now “The Seasons” is back with a brand new season and it got none other than THE Lee Hyo Ri as the fourth host of this music talk show.
“The Seasons: Red Carpet with Lee Hyo Ri“
“The Seasons” follows “Yu Huiyeol’s Sketchbook” and contributes to the enduring legacy of late-night music talk shows on KBS that span over 30 years. The show was designed to encompass four segments, each reflecting a season of the year and hosted by different stars to deliver a different and unique experience, aligning with KBS’s tradition of naming late-night music programs after the hosting artist.
After AKMU, Lee Hyo Ri is now stepping into the role of the fourth host, bringing her wealth of experience and influence to “The Seasons: Red Carpet with Lee Hyo Ri.” As a former member of the popular idol group FIN.K.L, Lee Hyo Ri has evolved into a highly respected figure in South Korea’s entertainment scene. Her addition to the show not only fits seamlessly into the lineup but also underscores her status as an experienced artist capable of offering a compelling and individualistic viewpoint, drawing from her extensive background in the entertainment industry.
To kick off this exciting new season, BLACKPINK’s Jennie started off the list of star guests who visited the studio and presented wonderful performances on the red carpet! We can expect to have good music, flashy performances, and amusing talks between Hyo Ri and her guests every Friday night.
