He contributed to the broadcast by providing information related to the opening ceremony and reacting to on-site conditions. That day, KBS’s coverage of the opening ceremony recorded the highest viewership among the three terrestrial broadcasters.

His activities as a singer are also ongoing. Gangnam has participated in the OSTs for various works, including tvN’s “Let’s Eat 2,” the Japanese version of “Marry My Husband,” “Spring Fever,” and the TVING original series “The Legend of the Mess Hall.” Recently, he sang the fourth OST, “Remember Me,” for the Disney+ and Channel A drama “Dive to You,” releasing both Korean and Japanese versions.

He has also been involved in music production. For the single “Chicken and Her,” he took on producing and composing, adding his name not only as a vocalist but also as a songwriter.

Gangnam, who has built his career based on variety shows and YouTube, is expanding his scope of activities to include music and sports broadcasting. Gangnam’s trajectory, as he continues his work in various fields based on the experience he has accumulated in broadcasting, is drawing attention.
