Actor Park Shin-yang reveals the song that helped him endure his difficult past due to thyroid disease.

The new MBC variety program "Songs That Helped Us Survive Today - Playlist 109" (hereinafter "Playlist 109"), which airs for the first time on the afternoon of the 21st, is a nationwide project collecting "survival songs" that lifted people up during tough moments, along with their personal stories behind each song, to complete a playlist of 109 tracks.

In the premiere episode, Lee Seok-hoon, Lee Jun, and Dindin meet actor and painter Park Shin-yang. The three MCs are visibly surprised by Park's appearance, as he is rarely seen on variety programs.

An unexpected past connection between Park Shin-yang and Lee Jun is also revealed. Lee Jun discloses that he once shared a music broadcast stage with Park Shin-yang on MBC in the past, while Park confirms that he remembers Lee Jun from that time. Although they thought it was their first meeting, the two have reunited after many years through "Playlist 109," raising curiosity about how they appeared together during that special episode.

Additionally, Park Shin-yang speaks about the difficult period he endured for over 20 years due to hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. He reveals that when his symptoms were severe, even stringing a few words together was not easy, and he had to endure poor physical conditions during filming. While he says he has improved significantly since then, he also shares that he continues to manage his condition consistently.

Furthermore, he personally performs a special song that brought him comfort during those difficult times. He also sings the "survival song" that helped him get through his hardships together with the MCs, delivering another emotional resonance. The program airs for the first time on the 21st at 9 p.m.
