Shin Hyo-bum Questions Park Jin-young's Changed Directing Style on 'The Danttara'

In the upcoming episode of KBS2's variety show 'The Danttara', Shin Hyo-bum raises questions about Park Jin-young's altered directing approach, sparking curiosity among viewers. 'The Danttara' (더 딴따라), directed by Yang Hyuk and written by Choi Moon-kyung, is a unique audition program that seeks to discover multi-talented performers, blending singing, dancing, acting, and comedy. This innovative show, which teams Park Jin-young, the original 'Danttara', with KBS, aims to find stars across various genres, including traditional music and trot.

The eighth episode, airing on December 22, will feature a 1:1:1 showdown among the top 15 contestants who triumphed in the previous round's song selection mission. Only one contestant will advance to the semi-finals. Special masters for this episode include members of the girl group 'Golden Girls'—In-soon Lee, Shin Hyo-bum, and Park Mi-kyung—who are set to captivate the audience.

Upon their unexpected arrival, the existing masters, including Park Jin-young, quickly rise to greet them with a deep bow. However, the trio soon lightens the mood with cheerful greetings reminiscent of a fifth-generation girl group. As Park Jin-young expresses his excitement and begins to speak without the microphone, Shin Hyo-bum playfully chides him, saying, "Jin-young, have you done this before? Why are you acting like an amateur?" This moment marks the first time Shin Hyo-bum takes charge of the atmosphere on 'The Danttara'.

Additionally, Shin Hyo-bum comments on Park Jin-young's newfound kindness in directing, humorously expressing jealousy over his sudden friendliness, which adds to the comedic element of the show. Meanwhile, Park Mi-kyung predicts a star's emergence after witnessing one contestant's performance, raising curiosity about who she is referring to.

The production team of 'Golden Girls' noted that although Lee Eun-mi could not attend due to a prior concert commitment, In-soon Lee, Shin Hyo-bum, and Park Mi-kyung were fully engaged, offering warm advice and connecting with the emotions of the recently debuted girl group. They encourage viewers not to miss the upcoming episode featuring the special master appearances of 'Golden Girls'.

'The Danttara', a groundbreaking variety audition program co-produced by Park Jin-young and KBS, airs every Sunday at 9:20 PM.
