The highlight of the show featured KISS OF LIFE, a rising girl group, with member Bell capturing attention with her candid and charming confession.
The Unexpected Proposal
Famed for being the daughter of the popular singer Sim Shinn, Bell amused the audience by recounting how her mother had playfully singled out Park Bo-gum as an ideal son-in-law. “Recently, my mom said, ‘Bring a son-in-law like Park Bo-gum. He’s perfect for me,'” Bell shared with a laugh. She continued, “I told her, ‘Mom, what are you talking about? He doesn’t even know me.'”
Park Bo-gum’s Humorous Response
Park Bo-gum, known for his charisma and humility, responded to the confession with humor. He playfully remarked, “What do you mean? It’s impossible for me not to know,” eliciting laughter from both the studio and viewers. Bell, feeling bashful, responded, “Please don’t look at me. I’m sorry,” thus adding to the lighthearted moment.
Music Blending Family and Passion
Bell also shared her musical journey, which has been significantly influenced by her father. “Growing up, I was profoundly impacted by my dad’s music. I decided that although I inherited talent from him, I wanted to pursue my career on my own terms. I began composing from a young age, and my debut happened with Purple K’s songs. Since then, I’ve written for many admired seniors like 아이들’s Miyeon and 르세라핌,” she noted.
A Gift to Her Idol
When Park Bo-gum asked if she had someone in mind to gift a well-crafted song, Bell didn’t hesitate. “It’s for you, Park Bo-gum sunbae-nim,” she answered, to the surprise of many. “The genre would be rock,” she added, further piquing everyone’s interest, including Park’s.
In conclusion, this unexpected encounter between Bell and Park Bo-gum provided not only a comedic interlude but a heartfelt glimpse into the life of an emerging artist influenced by family and aiming to carve out her own legacy in the music industry.
