The October 9 broadcast of KBS2’s Happy Together – I’m Glad I’m Not Alone will feature its 11th episode, titled Final Stage in Hangang, where the 12 teams that advanced through the competition will compete for the ultimate championship. Woni will appear as a special MC alongside fellow RESCENE member Minami and Forestella members Ko Woo Rim and Kang Hyung Ho, joining hosts Yoo Jae Suk, Yoon Jong Shin, and Jang Hang Joon.
The emotional highlight of the episode comes from Kkotme Youth Choir, the competition’s oldest choir. As the group performed A Thousand Winds, Woni and Minami became deeply immersed in the music and were visibly moved to tears.
Woni confessed, “Actually, I was already crying before they even started singing.” She then offered heartfelt encouragement to the elderly performers, saying, “I want to tell these grandmothers that their lives are just beginning.”
The performance also moved the other cast members. Jang Hang Joon, who had never previously cried on the program, broke down in tears and admitted, “I’m usually a cold-hearted person, so I never expected myself to cry like this.” Ko Woo Rim shared a similar reaction, saying, “I rarely cry either, to the point that people call me someone without blood or tears. But this was a performance that made it impossible not to cry.”
Meanwhile, RESCENE has enjoyed a remarkable rise in popularity this year, partly thanks to the viral catchphrase “Geoje Yaho,” which originated on Woni’s personal channel. The group’s song LOVE ATTACK, the title track from their first mini-album SCENEDROME, released in August 2024, experienced a dramatic resurgence on the music charts and reportedly maintained the No. 1 position on Melon’s Top 100 for three months. On July 8, the group also released a remake of KARA’s Pretty Girl, which reached No. 2 on Melon’s Top 100 and earned them a first-place victory on a music show. RESCENE is now preparing to return with their fourth mini-album, PULSE, on November 3.
KBS2’s Happy Together – I’m Glad I’m Not Alone is scheduled to air on October 9 at 8:30 p.m. KST.
