SEOUL, November 8 (Yonhap) -- Trot singers Song Ga-in and Kim Ho-joong will be singing in joy in the streets, at a restaurant, and on a field, meeting their fans.
Song Ga-in and Kim Ho-joong introduced themselves as "Blessings siblings" and introduced the program, saying that the program includes happiness, sadness, and tears, at the online press conference of TV Chosun's new variety program "Take the Blessings (GO)," which was held online on Wednesday.
"Take the Blessings (GO)" is a program in which Song Ga-in and Kim Ho-joong visit places where music is needed, starting from rural places in Korea to places all over the world, and give comfort and laughter to people. The two will not only present songs to their fans, but will also drive a truck with a bunch of gifts, starting with farm equipment, heating pads, and more.
The program was initially planned as a music travel variety show, but it was changed to a project to give presents to their fans to give back the love they got.
Both Song Ga-in and Kim Ho-joong said that they enjoyed meeting their fans in a comfortable way, not like how they are on stage, with a full makeover.
Song Ga-in said, "I wore good clothes, and I was dressed up, which made me look like a cold hearted person, but I will be showing my easy going side through this program."
Kim Ho-joong said, "The audience will be able to see us humming without recorded tracks as it is a traveling program, The program is full of music," and added, "I put in so much effort as it is a program that uses my name."
Both Song Ga-in and Kim Ho-joong are holding concerts these days, and they said that the fans they met during the shooting of "Take the Blessings (GO)" showed more excitement than the ones they met during their concert.
Kim Ho-joong said, "The fans we met during the shooting of "Take the Blessings (GO)" showed realistic reactions as they were not ready to see us compared to the fans who got ready to see us for the concert,"
Song Ga-in added, "There were fans who screamed, ran around while they jumped. And some people cried."
Song Ga-in will show off her cooking skills for her fans.
Kim Ho-joong said, "Song Ga-in cooks such big portions," adding, "She cooks more than 100 portions when there are 30 to 40 staff at the filming scene."
He then said, "I want to meet Korean people who live in the farthest place from Korea," adding, "Song Ga-in is good at cooking, and I want to treat them to delicious Korean food."
The two also announced their view rate promises.
Kim Ho-joong said, "If it surpasses 7%, I will lose 7 kg," and Song Ga-in said, "If it surpasses 10%, I will choose the request with the most requests posted on the viewer's bulletin board and show it in action." The first episode will air at 10 p.m. on Wednesday.
