Broadcaster Lee Hwi-jae eventually shed tears on the return broadcast.

The KBS 2TV entertainment program "Immortal Songs," which aired on the 28th, featured the "2026 Entertainment World King's Fair."

On this day, Lee Hwi-jae returned for the first time in four years, drawing attention. Asked what he has been up to, he said, "It's too long to talk, but I had a good time with my family," adding, "There were many mistakes, so it was a time to look back one by one."

Lee Hwi-jae looked very nervous. Kim Joon-hyun, who saw this, said, "I've never seen you so nervous."

"The lyrics fit my situation well," he said, adding that he selected singer Choi Ho-seop's "The Mask of Time."

In an interview with the production team, Lee Hwi-jae said, "I'm very worried. It's been a long time, and it wasn't usually a pressure because I was singing. Three weeks ago, I had sleep paralysis. I was recording and I had to talk about it, but I couldn't open my mouth. That's why I thought I rested for a long time."

In addition, Lee Hwi-jae said, "There were articles after the interview, and I expected it, but there were many malicious comments," adding, "So I texted the production team." He said, "It's okay not to go out if it's too hard because it seems to cause inconvenience." But thankfully, the production team gave me a lot of strength," he said.

Lee Hwi-jae, who has been looking back on the controversy so far, said, "Don't you know the best about being insufficient and making mistakes. "What did I make a mistake?" he said. "I can't turn back time now, so I thought that if you give me something now, all I have to do is do my best."

On stage, he received a warm cheer from Lee Hwi-jae. He told the audience, "It's been so long since I've said hello. Thank you and I'm sorry. There is a mixture of emotions. In fact, when I came to the broadcasting station, I said, "I didn't know that my name would appear (on the screen)."

Eventually, Lee Hwi-jae shed tears. He said, "The song I'm going to sing today is 'When Time Goes by'. I will sing it as plainly and honestly as possible," he said, before performing a sincere performance.

Meanwhile, Lee Hwi-jae once served as a top MC. However, he was embroiled in controversy over the noise conflict between neighbors and the suspicion of "eat and run" for toys at the amusement park surrounding his wife Moon Jung-won. The method of progress shown at past entertainment shows and award ceremonies was also on the cutting board.

Later, he suspended his activities after KBS 2TV's entertainment information program "Yonnyeon Live" in 2022, and it was revealed that he left for Canada with his family, raising rumors of retirement. It is said that Lee Hwi-jae has been living in and out of Korea and Canada.
