"K-Pop Star" Season 1 winner Park Ji-min and "Voice Korea" Season 1 winner Son Seung-yeon will appear on MBC's "First Place."

As a result of star news coverage, Park Ji-min and Son Seung-yeon joined MBC's new music competition entertainment 'First Place', which will premiere on the 15th.

The "first place" is an "audition finish" where the final winners of previous music auditions that shook Korea will gather to determine the true throne. In addition to MBC's "Great Birth," winners of Mnet's "Superstar K2," "Superstar K3," "Voice Korea," JTBC's "Sing Again 2," "Phantom Singer," TV Chosun's "Tomorrow is the People's Singer," and SBS's "Our Ballad" will compete. MCs are Lee Min-jung and Boom, and Baek Ji-young, Park Ji-hyun, Kim Chae-won, and Heo Sung-tae will be on the panel.

Among them, "K-pop Star" Season 1 winner Park Ji-min and "Voice Korea" Season 1 winner Son Seung-yeon are also expected to join. Both were the first season winners of the program, which drew high buzz at the time.

Park Ji-min beat out prominent competitors such as Lee Hi, Baek A-yeon, Lee Seung-hoon, Lee Mi-shell, Park Je-hyung and Yoon Hyun-sang in season 1 of "K-pop Star," which aired in 2012. At that time, Park Ji-min performed Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" with his own voice and received praise from judge BoA Park Jin-young and Yang Hyun-seok, and later showed a great performance with excellent rhythm, rich voice, and attractive sensitivity. After winning the championship, Park joined JYP, worked as a duo with Baek Yerin (15&), and later began his solo career in 2015. After the expiration of his contract with JYP in 2019, Park Ji-min moved to Warner Music Korea in 2020 and resumed his activities under the name of Jamie.

Son Seung-yeon made her name well known by winning the season 1 of "Voice Korea" in 2012. At that time, Son Seung-yeon won the title with her overwhelming singing ability as she drew attention to the BMK's "Colored" stage. In particular, Son Seung-yeon has appeared in a number of music competition programs such as "Superstar K," "Top Band," "The Masked Singer," and "Immortal Songs" in addition to "Voice Korea," drawing attention to her performance at the "First Place."

Meanwhile, PD Kim Myung-jin, who directed the "First Place," answered the question about the cast at the "First Place" production presentation held on the 11th and said, "Superstar K2 winner Huh Gak, "Our Ballad" winner Lee Ye-ji and "Tomorrow is the People's Singer" winner Park Chang-geun will appear. The disclosure of participants is also one of the program's points to watch, so I can't tell you all about it," he said.
