Lee Hwi-jae, a broadcaster who resumes his career after four years, headed to the recording studio of "Immortal Songs" to avoid the reporters' cameras.

KBS 2TV's music and entertainment program "Immortal Songs" will be recorded at the KBS New Hall in Yeouido-dong, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul on the 16th. While the recording was organized as a special feature of the "2026 Entertainment World King's Fair," attention was drawn to Lee Hwi-jae's appearance, which had been suspended for the past four years.

In order to capture Lee Hwi-jae meeting with viewers for the first time in a long time, more reporters gathered at the recording "On the Way to Work" site. Celebrities named in the lineup, including Moon Se-yoon, Hong Seok-cheon, Park Sung-kwang, Song Il-guk, Cho Hye-ryeon, Park Joon-hyung, and Sanghoon Lee, were captured by reporters' cameras as they visited the scene from early morning to attend a camera rehearsal.

However, it is known that Lee Hwi-jae quietly entered the recording studio through another route to avoid the movement before the reporters waited. It seems to be conscious of the attention paid to the official schedule for the first time in a long time.

Lee Hwi-jae's appearance on the show came about four years after he left the KBS 2TV entertainment information program "Yeonjung Live" in April 2022. Lee Hwi-jae once served as a top MC, but his image was hit by allegations of noise conflicts between neighbors and "eat and run" over his wife Moon Jung-won. The method of progress shown at past entertainment shows and award ceremonies was also on the cutting board. Since then, he has suspended his activities after "Live Throughout the Year," and it was revealed that he left for Canada with his family, raising rumors of retirement.

Lee Hwi-jae hasn't been updated for a while since he went to Canada, but Moon Jung-won recently resumed his SNS activities after about four years, drawing attention again. It is said that Lee Hwi-jae has been living in and out of Korea and Canada.

Lee Hwi-jae's appearance is expected to be an opportunity to gauge his chances of returning. The PD, who is in charge of "Immortal Songs," explained about the special, "The concept is to set up a stage for entertainers who released an album but were not full-time singers."

In fact, Lee Hwi-jae was a singer in 1995 with his first album "Say Good Bye" and his second album "Blessing You" in 1997. Attention is focusing on what kind of story Lee Hwi-jae will bring up and what kind of stage he will perform on the broadcast stage in about four years. Attention is focusing on whether he will express his position on the controversy that has been raised so far.
