South Korean TV network KBS is gearing up for the debut of its new reality show, I Am a Singer, in November. This music travel series will showcase prominent K-pop artists who will undertake a musical expedition in Europe, spanning Germany and Spain.
In contrast to earlier music programs captured internationally, which mostly featured pre-planned performances, the venues of the latest KBS show will be accessible to everybody through "open mics."
The show will offer a unique platform where K-pop and global artists can unite with fans and share the same stage to engage through music. In Germany’s Munich episode, Miss A's Bae Suzy is reported to showcase her impressive vocal talents.
Choi Jong-ho and Kim Hong-joong, the members of the popular Korean boy band ATEEZ, are expected to appear on the show. Singer-songwriters such as Sunwoo Jung-A, Sohyang, and Henry will further add spark to the Munich episode. Additionally, the guest performances will include the Vienna Boys' Choir and the Munich Opera Chorus.
In Spain’s Mallorca segment of I Am A Singer, Mamamoo’s lead rapper Hwasa, the Power of Love singer Sohyang, Henry, and the former member of THE BARBERETTES Ahn Shin Ae are expected to make appearances.
Guest artists Plácido Domingo and Álvaro Soler from Spain would also collaborate for the entertainment series. Cloud, Lee Nau, and Jairo would perform as band members to support the artists.
A KBS representative commented on the concept of the forthcoming variety show and what to anticipate from it, as reported by Naver.
"The musicians' honest and free-spirited journeys will create moments that set this show apart from other busking programs. Look forward to the high-quality guerrilla concerts that pop up unexpectedly during their musical travels," he added.
