The Seasons: Red Carpet with Lee Hyo Ri (

I'm Lee Hyo Ri of "Red Carpet with Lee Hyo Ri."

Nice to meet you all!

Did you have a good week?

I forgot to introduce JeongMae and Koongchi Tachi last week.

I'm so sorry.

Let me introduce you to JeongMae and Koongchi Tachi.

They're joining us tonight. Please give them a round of applause.

I have a habit of only thinking about myself.

I've been a superstar from a very early age,

so please understand me.

I'm trying to work on it, but it's not easy.

All right, then.

The first guest of "Red Carpet" tonight...

is back as a singer after the longest break.

She's not here as someone's husband or the mother of her three kids.

Today, she's here as the singer with a sparkling voice...

that's made many smile and cry.

Please welcome Byul, the singer.

(The song that introduced my voice to the world for the first time)

Thank you.

Nice to meet you!

Byul!

- It's been a hot minute. - Hyo Ri!

- It's been a minute. - Have a seat.

- Congratulations. - On what?

On becoming the host of the show.

- It's been a while since I've become one. - Exactly.

I really wanted to be back on the show.

- It's such an honor. - Byul,

when was the last time you were on this stage?

It's been a really long time.

I think my last time was on "Yu Huiyeol's Sketchbook."

It's been around 5 to 6 years.

That was your last time? It's been a long time, then.

Yes, a very long time.

You're here because you have a new release, right?

Yes.

To be honest,

when I released "December 32," the song I had just sung,

my agency told me to sing and not appear on shows.

But from the next song,

I appeared on my first show,

and that was when I met you for the first time.

What show was it?

We went to Guam together.

- Oh, "Let's Go! Dream Team!" - Yes, "Let's Go! Dream Team."

- What a nostalgic show. - Do you even know this show?

There's this old show called "Let's Go! Dream Team."

And back then...

- We were babies! - Why are you playing it?

Come on!

We really gave it our all.

- We're so determined. - Look at me.

I look so excited.

My gosh!

What's wrong with me?

- Until fourth grade... - We were so young!

- For sure. - in elementary school,

Yes?

- What's this? - I wet my bed.

Where?

- Why did I even share that? - Your bed?

What's with my style? Did I think I was Jennifer Lopez?

You were so cool and hip, even back then!

Tell us about how determined you are before you begin.

Okay.

I'll do my best.

- It was so tiring back then. - Look at us!

You and I look like such babies!

- We were so young. - Seriously.

That was in 2003,

so 21 years ago.

Right!

We were so young...

when we first met and played games,

- and over the years we didn't meet, - We got married and met again!

Byul and I both got married.

And you have three kids.

- Yes, I have three kids now. - Exactly.

How old are they?

Dream is 12.

Soul is 8, so he's in 1st grade.

And now, Song, the youngest, is six.

Do you not sing often at home?

I sing at home all of the time, even when there's nobody listening.

With a microphone?

I play the instrumentals on YouTube to sing along.

I have much less opportunities...

to sing on stage now compared to back in the day.

That's why I get really anxious and practice so much...

when I have a chance to sing on stage again.

You have three kids and a husband,

so such an opportunity is harder to come by now.

Yes, so I left the kids...

- with my husband to come here. - You told him to watch them?

Yes, and I'm going to go home as late as possible tonight.

We can have a drink after this, then.

I'm the first guest of the night,

- But you'll stay until the end. - but I'll stay all the way through.

I'll be waiting for you.

I've also left my five dogs to my husband...

to come here.

Are you going to go home late tonight too?

As late as possible. In fact, I'm going to go home tomorrow.

The last flight to Jeju isn't late enough for me to make it.

That's why I'm going home tomorrow.

I heard you were coming,

and as the host, I can't help...

but want to do something with my guests here.

Of course!

So I thought it'd be cool to sing "How are you" with you.

Will you be my Na Yoon Kwon, then?

Maestro Jeong, you can play it, right?

Okay, please play it for us.

I can't believe...

I'm singing this with Hyo Ri.

I'll be Na Yoon Kwon.

That was 2005.

- It's been almost 19 years, then. - That's right.

But her voice hasn't changed a bit, has it?

- Your voice is still the same. - Really? Thank you.

I find your constant hard work so inspiring.

I'm also working hard.

- Let's go! - Yes.

Three years ago, you were on a show...

where moms tried to become a K-pop girl group.

- That's right. - I watched the show,

and not only were you a good singer but also quite a decent dancer.

I'm not so good that people will be in awe or get goosebumps watching me,

- but people will certainly be fascinated. - Okay, then.

Fascinate us today, Byul.

I'll show you a very fascinating sight, then.

It's a dance to a recent release, right?

I'm starting from back in time...

- with my own song. - Okay, then.

"EASY?"

You even danced to the most recent release!

Even "EASY!"

- You're so good! In those heels too! - My shoes...

- My heels are too high. - The skirt makes it look less cool,

but with some hip-hop pants on...

I thought I nailed it, no?

You're releasing a new song after a very long break.

- Yes. - Can you tell us about it?

- It's called "My Truth." - "My Truth."

I worked with a musician I always wanted to work with,

named Hen.

And I hear you're a huge fan of Hen.

Do you know the singer-songwriter named Hen?

She wrote "Consolation" by Kwon Jin Ah.

"Consolation" was the song...

- that made me fall for her music. - It was the same for me!

I also listened to "Consolation..."

- and searched its composer and lyricist. - You looked that up too, right?

Hen's songs don't feature many vocal tricks...

and are very lowkey.

- But they still touch your heart. - I agree.

- I'm completely lost in her music. - Yes, me too.

Can we hear Jin Ah's "Consolation,"

- written by Hen, in your voice? - Sure.

Let me sing a little bit of it.

Please give her a round of applause.

- It suits your voice perfectly. - Thank you.

Your voice is a bit rough but warm.

And you carry the same emotions in your new song, "My Truth," right?

- That's right. - Yes.

You love this person so much that you don't want him to be yours.

Yes, because you want to remember this person only in the best ways forever.

That was what we should've done.

But we went too far and made them ours, right?

I'll quickly sing my song and wait backstage.

- Let's get some soju. - We have to go home late tonight.

- Let's get some soju. - That sounds good.

Your husband and kids must be watching the show at home right now.

I know we've joked about you just now,

but we love our husbands most.

We have to end on a good note, after all.

- I really love him. - Indeed.

The best thing I've done in life was to meet and marry Haha...

and have three kids with him.

- Honey, - Leave him a video message.

I really love you!

Why are you looking into the air as you're saying that?

- She's looking into the air! - I really love you!

I love you too. I was just kidding.

Let's give a round of applause for the last song,

"My Truth" by Byul, filled with her sincerity.

And we'll say goodbye to her now.

- Thanks for coming. - Thanks for inviting me.

(My truth, even if others may not understand it)

(I love you, honey, but don't look for us tonight!)

The next guest of the night...

is a singer-songwriter, who's been mentioned...

by Park Bo Gum, Heize, TOMORROW X TOGETHER,

and our bandmaster, Jeong Dong Hwan.

Many artists have mentioned...

this singer-songwriter.

This is the artist's first time on a major channel show.

Let's give her a big round of applause so she's not nervous.

Please welcome the singer-songwriter...
