Producer Kim Ji-woo opened his mouth about the poor ratings of his previous work 'Music Around the World's Born'.

Kim Ji-woo and producer Park Dong-bin, as well as cast members Gian 84, Pani Bottle, and Lee Si-eon attended the MBC entertainment presentation held at the MBC headquarters in Sangam, Mapo-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 8th.

Producer Kim Ji-woo confessed honestly that 'Around the Music' did not meet expectations. He said, `The burden of ratings is all PD's homework,' adding, `I do my best every season, feeling anxious."




It was then a new challenge after 'Taegye Ilju 3'"I thought deeply about what raw things I could show in the repeated travel formats", he explained.

Producer Kim added that he gained an important enlightenment while preparing for this 'Taegye Ilju 4'. He said "It's not just from a strange place or from a person that's raw."'The deepening relationship between the four (Gian 84, Panibotl, Lee Si-eon, Dex) and the feelings that come and go in it were real raw" he said.

In particular, he said "They got this close?' 'Share your feelings like this?' There are moments that I want to do"It will be possible for such a scene to reach viewers as a new wave of emotions as well."




The `Taegye Ilju' series is MBC's representative travel entertainment that began in 2022 and has been centered on Gian84's journey of the concept of unplanned and lifelong life. This season will be the most extreme journey ever set in the Himalayan alpine and Chama highlands.

Meanwhile 'Taegye Ilju 4' will premiere on MBC at 9:10 p.m. on the 11th.
