MC Kim Hee-ae of the '80s MBC Seoul Music Awards presents the second part of 'Hameco (Hair + Makeup + Coordination)' following the first part.
MBC's entertainment program 'What Do You Do When You Play?' is receiving a hot response for reviving the romance and emotions of the 1980s with the '80s MBC Seoul Music Awards.
The first part of the music awards broadcast on the 27th of last month soared to a peak viewership rating of 8.2%, ranking first in overall Saturday entertainment ratings (Nielsen Korea metropolitan area). In the TV topicality survey for the fourth week of September (Good Data Corporation), it also ranked first in the non-drama category on Saturdays, gaining attention in both viewership and topicality.
In particular, MC Kim Hee-ae of the '80s Seoul Music Awards garnered much attention with her perfect 'Hameco' that led viewers back to the 1980s. She styled her hair with volume, applied vibrant makeup, and coordinated a purple two-piece outfit. Additionally, her tone, remarks, and diction created an illusion for viewers that they had indeed traveled back to the 1980s.
Viewers reacted by saying, “The original goddess of the book cover is recreating the 80s, it’s truly the essence of the 80s,” “At first glance, I thought it was archival footage from the 80s,” and “She really didn’t do it half-heartedly, she did it properly.”
The released photos show MC Kim Hee-ae's second part 'Hameco' following the first part, drawing attention. Kim Hee-ae appears in a black mini dress. She has styled her bangs to create volume and applied red lipstick to capture the mood and emotions of the 80s. Holding a microphone with a sponge, she embodies the 80s.
Standing at the MC seat, Kim Hee-ae said, “I prepared hair, makeup, and outfits with an 80s concept. I had a lot of concerns, but now that I’m wearing it and with the audience, it feels nostalgic,” raising expectations for the second part of the music awards.
Kim Hee-ae utilizes her experience as a representative MC of the 80s college music awards and the variety show 'Saturday Saturday is Fun' to effectively revive viewers' old memories alongside Yoo Jae-suk.
The episode of 'What Do You Do When You Play?' airing on the 4th will be available at 6:25 PM on MBC, 5 minutes earlier than usual.
