'The Listen: The Season We Stayed' heads to Gwangyang.

In the episode of SBS's 'The Listen: The Season We Stayed' airing at 10:50 p.m. on the 14th, Lee Young-hyun, TAEYANG, Lee Seung-gi, EXO's Suho, Lee Ye-jun, Yoo Joo, and Kim Hee-jae are shown continuing their new musical journey by visiting Gwangyang, the 'City of Iron,' following Daejeon.

Lee Ye-jun and Kim Hee-jae, veterans of 'The Listen,' demonstrate a distinct presence from the moment they appear. In particular, Kim Hee-jae, who is participating in the third season of 'The Listen,' says, "I am the senior here on 'The Listen,'" subtly asserting his authority, which elicits laughter. The powerful combination of new and veteran members is completed with the addition of Lee Seung-gi, an original all-rounder who excels in singing, variety shows, and acting, and Yoo Joo, known for her clear and solid vocal tone.

On this day, the members visit 'Park1538,' the promotional hall of POSCO Gwangyang Steel Works, the world's largest single steel plant, to examine the history and future of South Korea's steel industry. The members enter a "hard study mode," even conducting their own review sessions to win first place in a quiz with prizes up for grabs. However, an unexpected twist quiz appears, plunging them into collective shock and injecting unforeseen tension into the scene, sparking curiosity. Viewers can find out what the quiz was that caught the members off guard through the broadcast.

Set against the backdrop of Gubongsan's 'Panorama Walk,' a new landmark in Gwangyang, this busking performance features seven artists blending with the breathtaking scenery of Gwangyang, delivering deep emotions and gentle comfort suited to an autumn night.

In particular, Suho presents his first live stage for "Let's Be Well, Us," a song with a rich original composition released through 'The Listen.' With a vocal tone that is smooth, plain, yet deeply resonant, along with delicate expression, he offers a charm different from the original track, set to add to the melancholic sensibility of an autumn night. "Let's Be Well, Us," whose digital single was pre-released last week, has received favorable reviews for Suho's new appeal, showcasing a wide spectrum from genres that are usually difficult to access to low vocal ranges, earning reactions described as "the rediscovery of Suho."

Additionally, at this busking performance, 'legendary vocalist' Lee Young-hyun reinterprets the acoustic collaboration original track "I Miss You So Much" with his own delicate and affectionate sensibility. It is reported that both the on-site audience and fellow singers were left with a deep lingering impression by Lee Young-hyun's live performance, which stands out for its persuasive vocals and profound emotional expression. Lee Young-hyun's "I Miss You So Much," to be released through 'The Listen,' will have its digital single revealed on the 18th.

Lee Seung-gi's reinterpretation of Buzz's original track "Don't Know Men" will be pre-released as a digital single at 6:00 p.m. on the 14th. The original song, which has been loved for a long time as a favorite karaoke song among men, is expected to offer a unique charm through Lee Seung-gi's signature refreshing and powerful vocals, building anticipation for his first live performance to be revealed in next week's broadcast.

Special stages that can only be seen on 'The Listen' tonight are also generating expectations. From TAEYANG X Lee Ye-jun's "Before Sunrise," a combination that will delight the ears and color an autumn night, to Suho X Yoo Joo's "Strange, You and I," where voices full of excitement blend together, and even Lee Ye-jun X Kim Hee-jae's "We Loved Like That," an emotional collaboration beyond imagination that even surprised Lee Young-hyun, a series of special duet stages will follow. Added to this are solo performances carrying distinct charms, such as "Old Song" sung by the male vocalists together, TAEYANG's "Today," Lee Seung-gi's "Kind Lie," and Yoo Joo's "Unsolved Case," promising abundant musical enjoyment.

A happening that burst into laughter on site before the duet stage also draws attention. Since the busking was held at the summit of Gubongsan, Suho, seeing Yoo Joo shivering in the chilly wind, exercised a 'heart-fluttering manner' by taking off his own outerwear without hesitation. However, the warmth lasted only briefly; Suho finished the duet stage clutching a hot pack in the strong wind, and an unexpected action made everyone burst into laughter. The 'bittersweet' situation that instantly brought the affectionate gentleman Suho back to reality can be seen through the broadcast.

A special guest also makes a surprise appearance at the Gwangyang busking site. Musical actress Kim Soo-ha, who is performing as TAEYANG's daughter in the musical "Healthy Kitchen," is that person. Kim Soo-ha performs Yoon Ha's "Comet" with her unique vocal tone and refreshing singing power, coloring the night in Gwangyang with a pleasant freshness.

At this busking site, various stories are revealed, from an incident(?) of audience members leaving midway to a couple facing a life-separating situation ahead of their 10th wedding anniversary, and parents struggling with conflict with their adolescent daughter. To the audience who came to the busking carrying their own stories, the members of 'The Listen' offer warm comfort through songs filled with sincerity. Additionally, an unexpected situation occurs where TAEYANG has to spend his own money to convey comfort, adding to the curiosity.
