Actress Kim Hee-seon shared anecdotes from her peak years in the 1990s.
In an episode of MBC’s variety show "What’s Up?" broadcast on the 14th, Kim Hee-seon was seen reminiscing about the entertainment industry of the 1990s alongside Yoo Jae-suk, Haha, Joo Woo-jae, and Heo Kyung-hwan.
On this day, the members immersed themselves in nostalgia while watching past videos of 1990s stars, including Kim Hee-seon. In particular, Kim Hee-seon recalled her days as a music show MC at the young age of 17.


Kim Hee-seon shared an experience where she had to leave her previous MC position before completing her term due to her then-inexperienced hosting skills, and also recounted her subsequent stint hosting SBS’s "Inkigayo."
Notably, an anecdote about her eating instant noodles during a short break in the middle of a live broadcast of "Inkigayo" caught viewers’ attention. Kim Hee-seon recalled thinking she had about 10 minutes of leeway to eat her noodles, but when her turn came up faster than expected, she hurriedly rushed back to the host’s desk.
The members then turned their attention to the unique way of speaking featured in the broadcast footage from that time. They marveled at how her speech patterns had changed since the 1990s, discussing the distinctive accent of that era, often referred to as the "Seoul dialect."
They also shared memories of that era by looking back on the fashion and broadcast atmosphere of popular stars at the time.
Kim Hee-seon elicited laughter as she opened up about everything from her experience as a music show MC in her teens to a hair-raising incident that occurred during a live broadcast. =Even within a changed cultural landscape, the familiar image of that era evoked nostalgia among viewers.
