"Our Ballad" has returned for its second season.

The production press conference for the SBS variety program "Our Ballad 2" was held on the morning of the 30th at the SBS Hall in Mokdong, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul. PD An Jung-hyun, Jung Jae-hyung, Cha Tae-hyun, Park Kyung-rim, Moon Geun-young, Joo Woo-jae, Roy Kim, and Jeong Seung-hwan attended.

When asked about the difference between "Our Ballad" and other audition programs, Jung Jae-hyung stated, "Rather than traditionally selecting people who sing well, we have tried to support the people we think are good with our own perspective, unlike other audition shows."

He added, "Cha Tae-hyun's sharp tongue is scary. Park Kyung-rim comforts and consoles the participants like a mother, helping viewers understand and empathize with them."

Jung Jae-hyung joked, "The new members will have to take responsibility for the ratings."

Cha Tae-hyun confessed, "As we continued through Season 2, my 'parental' feelings grew stronger, making it hard for me to give harsh evaluations. The participants seem more upgraded than last year, so I found it difficult to make choices as well."

He also said, "The newly joined Joo Woo-jae and Roy Kim talk a lot. After watching the first broadcast this time, we will see if we should make them talk less. Joo Woo-jae sheds so many tears that you wonder, 'Is that really true tears?'" Jung Jae-hyung added, "Woo-jae was doing method acting."

"Our Ballad 2" is the second season of "Our Ballad," which swept South Korea in a ballad boom. Participants with an average age of 17.9 years old, younger than in previous seasons, are set to showcase stages where they newly reinterpret famous ballads released between 1985 and 2025, demonstrating the power of music that spans all generations.

"Our Ballad" will air its first episode at 10 p.m. on October 5.
