The talk show ‘Salon de Dol’ featuring military buddies Key and Lee Changsub is coming.
Set to premiere on the 25th, ENA's entertainment program ‘Salon de Dol: You Talk Too Much (Directed by Lee Tae-kyung, Written by Jo Mi-hyun, Produced by TEO)’ is a talk show where idol seniors and juniors gather to engage in intense debates over trivial topics, with SHINee's Key (Kim Ki-bum) and BTOB's Lee Changsub as the MCs.
As the highly anticipated premiere approaches on the 25th, we highlight some key points that will further raise viewer expectations.
▲ Trustworthy Production Team's Expanded ‘Salon Drip’ Universe
‘Salon de Dol’ is an expanded version of TEO's representative content, ‘Salon Drip,’ which has been consistently loved. It absorbs the unique charm of ‘Salon Drip,’ which brings out the appeal of various stars, while expanding into a new format that deals with trivial everyday topics, promising added fun.
The fact that PD Lee Tae-kyung and writer Jo Mi-hyun, who led the early days of ‘Salon Drip,’ have teamed up once again adds to the anticipation. Having collaborated on numerous popular shows such as ‘Amazing Saturday,’ ‘Hye-mi-ri Ye-chae-pa,’ and ‘My Name is Gabriel,’ all eyes are on how these two will deliver entertainment this time and how they will draw out the talk instincts of idols.
▲ Key X Lee Changsub MC Combination, Genuine Friendship Chemistry of Military Buddies!
The chemistry between SHINee's Key and BTOB's Lee Changsub, both representative entertainment idols and actual military buddies, is also one of the key points not to be missed. Logical and observant, Key is expected to showcase sharp and articulate speech based on his accumulated entertainment experience. In contrast, Lee Changsub, who has an introverted personality, transforms into an ‘Asura character’ in front of his close friends, eliciting laughter with unpredictable comments and reactions.
The ‘Tiki-Taka’ between the two will shine in prequel content filmed outdoors. Additionally, Girls' Generation's Hyoyeon will join as a guest MC, contributing her candid and straightforward talk to the discussions. The recently released poster features Key, Lee Changsub, and Hyoyeon, along with the phrase ‘Various Talks of KPOP Idols Who Talk Too Much,’ sparking interest. Curiosity is rising about the chemistry of the three, who will kick off ‘Salon de Dol’ with their nonstop chatter.
▲ Talkative Idol's Debate War
‘Salon de Dol’ captures the debate war of talkative idols, opening a new chapter in talk entertainment. The sharp differences in opinions and genuine reactions of idols surrounding everyday concerns will blend into comedic moments, likely leading to viewer immersion.
The spectrum of questions is also diverse. Topics such as ‘What situation makes you angrier about what your ex said after breaking up with you?’, ‘When does a person look ugly?’, and ‘If you watched a 100-minute movie as a one-hour summary?’ will emerge, leading to unpredictable debates. The continuous parade of witty remarks also hints at the birth of another ‘friendship entertainment’ show, heightening expectations for the main broadcast.
ENA's new entertainment show ‘Salon de Dol: You Talk Too Much’ will premiere on July 25 and air every Friday.
