Strong Heart: Au revoir to Lee Seungi and Bonjour to Lee Dong Wook

Last Tuesday, Lee Seungi hosted his last ever Strong Heart episode with YG family. He concluded his MC's role on Strong Heart with a bang! 










If you are a VIP or Lee Seungi's fan (or both like me) and haven't seen it yet, what are you waiting for? Here's the eng-subbed links on kshownow.net :

Since they want you to click through ads before watching the video, I can't embed the videos without violating their policy. For me, it was worth the ad clicking since I don't understand without their translation.

Ok, back to SH. Since the audience of SH are so accustomed to Lee Seungi, the new MC will have big shoes to fill. During last week's episode, the two new MCs of SH were revealed and I was a bit surprised to see Lee Dong Wook as one of the new MCs, along with the comedian Shin Dong Yup!  

Lee Dong Wook is one of the well-known and respected actors in korean drama-land but is rarely seen in variety shows! I think he's a good actor and his early drama, "My Girl", is my all-time favourite drama!!! Even though, he acts well in rom-com, it's hard for me to imagine him hosting a variety show, playing a pivotal role in delivering funny lines! I think it's very brave of him to take on this role since he has a lot to lose if he doesn't do well in this show. On the other hand, if he succeeds, he could be the next Korean's household name! May be that's why he has taken this role. 

Why does SBS chose Lee Dong Wook and Shin Dong Yup? Upon closer inspection, this pairing is a deja vu! They want the same characteristics as the paring of Lee Seungi and Kang Woo Dong, a young good-looking actor hoobae with an experienced sunbae comedian! After all, that pairing worked out exceptionally! In the still pictures released by SBS, Lee Dong Wook and Shin Dong Yup look harmonious and having fun hosting SH. I really hope they will do well for Lee Dong Wook's sake! I'm looking forward to watching the new era of Strong Heart with a lot of anticipation! I will let you know about my reaction once I've seen it. In the meantime, check out the SBS still pictures of the new SH below:
