[EPN NPinow reporter Go Nari] Trot singers Kang Hye-yeon and So Yumi appeared together in a video uploaded April 29 to the YouTube channel 'Noppakku Tak Jae-hoon,' drawing viewers' attention.
On the show, the two revealed that both started out in idol groups and have debuted three times in total before switching to trot. Host Tak Jae-hoon quipped, \"You two are persistent,\" prompting laughter from the set.
Early in the episode, conversation turned to So Yumi's first debut with VNT. When Shin Gyu-jin noted that her second group was Kiss & Cry, So Yumi smiled in response.
When So Yumi’s post‑trot album \"Please Shake Me\" came up, Tak Jae-hoon teased, \"What are you shaking?\" She shot back with a laugh, \"Maybe you're a little pervy, so you think of it that way,\" and the room erupted in laughter.
Tak followed, \"I thought the title 'Please Shake Me' meant it would move my heart.\" So Yumi replied, \"Anything that shakes is good,\" and when he asked Kang Hye-yeon the same question, she answered, \"My hair,\" keeping the mood playful.
So Yumi also revealed she'd been betrayed by a boyfriend she had been considering marrying. She said she still hopes to wed, but her preferences have changed with age: she now values height and broad shoulders and pays less attention to facial features. Kang Hye-yeon, by contrast, said looks do matter to her and even specified she prefers no double eyelids. Hearing that, Shin Gyu-jin playfully highlighted his own double eyelids, keeping the tone light.
The episode mixed candid anecdotes with humor, leaving the audience both amused and sympathetic to the singers' stories.
