Model and broadcaster Song Hae-na will be joining KBS 2TV‘s first Korean medical storytelling entertainment show, ‘Secret of a Celebrity Soldier’ as a guest for the ‘Coco Chanel episode’.

Song Hae-na, who participated in the recording of KBS2’s ‘Secret of a Celebrity Soldier’ on the 8th, said, “Coco Chanel is truly a dream stage for me. Also, Chanel is very knowledgeable about love. Since it‘s a combination of fashion and love, I thought I had to appear,” and revealed the reason for her guest appearance on the episode with Gabrielle Chanel, the founder of the luxury brand Chanel.

Lee Nak-joon, an otolaryngologist and the original author of the global hit drama ‘Severe Trauma Center’, asked a surprise question, “If Chanel appeared on a love program, would she be ‘Ok-soon’?” Here, Song Hae-na, who has been the MC of a dating program for many years, explained, “If you listen to today’s story, you will know that ‘this character is for sure’.”

Contrary to her image today as someone who turned the fashion world upside down, she was actually a woman who dreamed of becoming a singer and started her career as a nightclub singer. Lee Chan-won explained the appeal of Chanel at the time, saying, “She was neither pretty nor talented at singing, but they say men lined up for her.” Gabrielle Chanel was also called ‘Coco’ Chanel after her nickname from her favorite song at the time.

Also, the boyfriend she chose last, who enjoyed popularity as a nightclub singer, was revealed to be a playboy with an ordinary appearance and no artificiality, raising questions. Song Hae-na nodded, saying, “In fact, there are more ‘appropriate’ people who are playboys than people who are too handsome and pretty. People who attract people with their charm are also popular.”

Episode 14 of ‘Celebrity Soldiers‘ Secrets’, Korea’s first medical storytelling entertainment program that delves into the secret life and death of celebrities throughout history, will air on KBS 2TV at 8:30 PM on Tuesday, April 8.
