Webtoon artist and broadcaster Kian84 stated, "This season is the last."
On the 8th, a production presentation for MBC's entertainment program 'Born to Travel the World 4' (hereafter 'Taegeuk Ilju 4') was held at MBC's new headquarters in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Kian84, Pani Bottle, Lee Si-eon, and PD Kim Ji-woo attended the event.
Having become a representative entertainment program for MBC, 'Taegeuk Ilju' has successfully captured both viewership ratings and public interest in all three previous seasons. Kian84 achieved the remarkable feat of being the first non-entertainer to win the Grand Prize at the MBC Entertainment Awards through this program, also winning awards in seven categories, including Program of the Year.
In this context, Kian84 hinted that this season would be the last. After winning the Entertainment Personality of the Year award, a candidate for the Grand Prize at the '2024 MBC Broadcasting Entertainment Awards', he expressed, "I think 'Born to Travel the World' will be my last one this year."
Is he still feeling the same way now, just before the first broadcast? Kian84 said, "I talked with the PD as well. After filming, I felt that way." He added, "When I was doing webtoons, I didn't feel like I had achieved a perfect ending, but this time I felt a sense of pride that I had."
He continued, "The PD keeps telling me not to say it's the last, but I think it is. I believe it's beautiful to leave when the applause is still ringing."
'Taegeuk Ilju 4' will premiere on the 11th at 9:10 PM.
