Jung Seung-hwan “8 years ago, my entire appearance on Radio Star was edited out; today is my true first time”

Singer Jung Seung-hwan has picked up the variety show microphone once again, bringing up painful memories from eight years ago. Jung Seung-hwan appeared on the MBC 'Radio Star' 'Wipe Away the Tears Now' special, airing on July 22 at 10:30 PM, to confess his past dark history.

On this broadcast, Shin So-yul, Kim Young-kwang, Lee Seung-woo, and Jung Seung-hwan filled the studio together. Jung Seung-hwan shared a bittersweet story while reminiscing about his first visit to 'Radio Star' eight years ago. At that time, he had prepared and performed personal talents and a song stage, but since all that footage was edited out, only shots of him smiling were aired. He expressed his regret from that time, saying, "In essence, today is practically my first appearance."

The unexpected skills of a balladeer who received dance lessons for 2-3 years during trainee days

On the 'Radio Star' stage, which he returned to after eight years, Jung Seung-hwan showed a side completely different from his existing image as an emotional balladeer. Recalling his trainee days after joining his agency, he revealed that he not only practiced vocals but also consistently received dance lessons for two to three years. He disclosed his surprising past of seriously learning to dance, even within an agency environment filled with ballad singers.

These efforts were proven on stage. Jung Seung-hwan overwhelmed the studio by perfectly copying the choreography of popular girl groups such as Ive, aespa, and Illit. Showing idol-level dance skills that contrasted with his usual image of singing with an emotional voice, he heated up the atmosphere on set by performing a girl group dance medley with a serious expression.

Unleashing superpower-level personal talents honed over 8 years

Jung Seung-hwan's variety sense did not stop at just dancing. He unhesitatingly brought out strange and unique personal talents that he had aged over the eight-year period. Starting from a technique of picking up various objects using finger wrinkles, to the chick sounds he has honed since childhood, and even superpower-level personal talents reminiscent of a human snowman, he repeatedly surprised the MCs and viewers.

Stepping out to avenge the regret of being completely edited out in the past, Jung Seung-hwan displayed more relaxed wit by putting forward a cheerful character instead of his calm image. This appearance, where he shook off the regrets of eight years ago and clearly imprinted his own color, served as a place to confirm his diverse charms.
