Hong Seok-cheon sparked laughter on KBS2’s Immortal Songs with his candid take on his niece’s wedding during the final results announcement. The beloved music variety show, a staple with over 700 episodes, featured Hong as the star guest in its 749th installment, broadcast on March 28.
Raising Nieces Like Daughters
Hong, who has lovingly raised his second sister’s children as his own, shared the exciting news of his niece’s marriage preparations. He confirmed that family meetings have wrapped up successfully.
“She was originally set against marriage, so we had no preparations underway,” Hong explained. “Then a solid prospective son-in-law appeared, bringing a fresh vibe that even caught my interest. It felt great to witness.” His warm, fatherly glow lit up the studio.
Joint Stage Ignites Crowd
The highlight came after a high-energy joint rendition of “I’ll Show You” alongside the “Boy July” crew. The performance turned the stage into a frenzy, prompting a full standing ovation from fans.
Hong added, “The in-laws tune in to Immortal Songs religiously and get passionately immersed in it.”
Hong’s dynamic portrayals in tracks like “Refreshing Reunion Dad” and “Top Gay Dad,” combined with the sparkling “Ultimate Jewel Quartet,” heighten anticipation for the full episode’s vocal showdowns and charm.
