[MyDaily = Reporter Lee Seung-gil] Aina of Hats2Hats has wrapped up her stint as an MC on MBC's Show! Music Core (hereafter Music Core).

She was tapped as an MC at debut and drew strong attention from the start. From March 1, 2025, through May 2, 2026, she served for a year and two months, bringing her bubbly, upbeat energy to viewers every Saturday and injecting fresh vitality into the program.

Aina also appeared alongside her bandmates as a special group MC on Music Core, earning warm responses. When their single "RUDE!" claimed the group's first No. 1 on a terrestrial music show, she personally announced Hats2Hats as the trophy recipients, making the achievement feel all the more meaningful.

After successfully completing her Music Core duties, Aina said, "Serving as Music Core's MC taught me and showed me so much. Thanks to the tremendous support from our fans, my members and the Music Core family, I was able to finish my MC role happily and with gratitude. I will continue to show many new and varied sides of myself, so please look forward to them."

Meanwhile, Aina's group Hats2Hats is scheduled to perform at KCON JAPAN 2026 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, on May 8.
