KBS 2TV music talk show "The Seasons - 10cm's Ssedam Ssedam" aired on the 9th, featuring Apink, Kim Sejeong and Jeok Jae, and CNBLUE, harmoniously presenting music and talk.
Apink, celebrating their 15th debut anniversary, started the stage with a medley of hit songs including "Mr. Chu" and "NoNoNo." They then delivered a highly polished performance with "I Know," a reinterpretation of their debut song "I Don't Know" from a current perspective. When 10cm conveyed Jung Dong-hwan's fandom for Apink, Jung Dong-hwan responded with a heart, creating a fan success moment. Apink recalled, "When we appeared on 'Jay Park's Drive,' the 'MY MY' video reached 11.1 million views and ranked 3rd on the KBS Kpop channel shorts," expressing gratitude for Jung Dong-hwan's piano performance. Oh Hayoung directly asked 10cm about wearing a Manchester United uniform, revealing that he is a Tottenham fan. 10cm mentioned his connection with Jung Eun-ji and emphasized his affection for Apink, stating he would maintain his loyalty to his favorite team.
Kim Sejeong took the stage as a singer for the first time in a while with IU's "To Name." Kim Sejeong said, "This is a song I've sung every year like a skill test, and since I started taking vocal lessons consistently last year, I've changed little by little." She added, "When I was young, I focused only on my shortcomings, so I avoided even songs I liked, fearing they might hurt me. Now I can fully face that song, which made me emotional." Having been active as a solo singer and actress after activities with I.O.I and Gugudan, Kim Sejeong shared her thoughts on winning the Best Actress Award for "The Moon Flowing in the River" and the process of remaking Sung Si-kyung's "Solar System." She recreated her past on stage with a dance medley of hit songs from her I.O.I and Gugudan days. She also mentioned advice from Ha Ji-won that helped her in acting.
Jeok Jae participated in the production of "Solar System" with Kim Sejeong. Appearing on broadcast after marriage, Jeok Jae said, "At first, I thought 2026 would be warm because it was a large-scale project, but plans were delayed after the release of 'Solar System,' which was disappointing." He then mentioned 10cm's unexpected charm, adding, "I wondered if this was the path I should take."
CNBLUE returned with their third full-length album after 11 years. Jung Yong-hwa said it was his first time making eye contact and talking with 10cm, feeling like meeting a celebrity. Jung Yong-hwa recalled meeting 10cm in the restroom during the "Gayo Daejeokje," and 10cm humorously described Jung Yong-hwa washing his hair at the sink, filling the scene with laughter. 10cm and CNBLUE mentioned they debuted in the same year and had a brief playful dispute over their debut months. 10cm said, "There is something I really want to apologize for," referring to a past music show first-place competition. He revealed the story of how CNBLUE's "Was It Always This Pretty?" had been number one on all broadcasting stations when 10cm's "Do You Like Spring??" took the top spot. CNBLUE countered, "Weren't you not appearing on broadcasts at that time?" The two groups reenacted the ending and first-place announcement scenes, filling the venue with laughter.
CNBLUE denied rumors that they call each other "princes" in response to being labeled a visual band. Their presence on festival stages was also highlighted. 10cm described CNBLUE's stage as "to the level of taking the souls of the audience." Jung Yong-hwa shared his philosophy about the stage, saying, "I don't want to send people off with a smile. I want everyone to struggle and finish together." The performances of "Killer Joy," "RACER," and "99%" followed, making the studio reminiscent of a festival scene.
"The Seasons - 10cm's Ssedam Ssedam" airs every Friday at 10 PM on KBS 2TV.
