Why did Ahn Young-bin of KBS2‘s entertainment show ‘The Ttanttara’ shock Park Jin-young?
KBS 2TV’s new entertainment program ‘The Ttanttara’ (directed by Yang Hyeok / written by Choi Moon-kyung) is a new variety audition program presented by the original Ttanttara Park Jin-young in collaboration with KBS, a project to find a tanttara who can sing, dance, act, and entertain. This is an all-rounder audition show that discovers and nurtures ‘Ttanttara’ with star quality in all genres, including comedy, acting, singing, dancing, traditional Korean music, and trot.
The 3rd episode of ‘The Ttanttara’ that airs today (17th) will begin the competition among the 36 contestants who advanced to the 2nd round, and they will begin a training workshop with ‘The Ttanttara‘s Night’ as a prodigy MC.
Among them, 23-year-old Ahn Young-bin shows off a chicken dance that goes beyond imagination, astonishing Park Jin-young, Cha Tae-hyun, Kim Ha-neul, and Wendy. Ahn Young-bin, who introduced his stage as an interlude, said, “One day, I went to an audition, but that day, I didn’t do well and I wanted to run away,”and I wanted to be a chicken. He then reveals his vivid past experiences, saying, “I made it based on that moment.” Then, while singing, Ahn Young-bin takes out a raw egg to relax his throat because he feels nervous, and starts singing again. Soon, he lets out a “pak” sound and his body starts to twist, saying, “My body feels weird, tight,” and doesn’t know what to do. Then, the sound of the song suddenly changes to “Kkokkio,” and he begins to become one with the chicken.
Park Jin-young, who was watching this, can’t close his gaping mouth, and Cha Tae-hyun holds his stomach and bursts into laughter. Wendy then lets out a single exclamation, “Wow~,” and Kim Ha-neul says, “I couldn’t laugh. I thought it was so amazing, and I wouldn’t have been able to see it if it weren’t for a stage like this,” and Cha Tae-hyun says, “There’s no greater exclamation than this.” Finally, Shindong asks, “What would I do if that chicken came to me? He makes everyone laugh by saying, “I‘m scared.”
What would Ahn Young-bin’s stage be like after turning into a chicken be like? It will be revealed on the original broadcast of ‘The Ttanttara’ today (17th) Sunday at 9:20 PM.
Meanwhile, the unprecedented variety audition program ‘The Ttanttara’, in which Park Jin-young and KBS join hands to find the next generation of tanttara, airs every Sunday at 9:20 PM.
