Broadcaster Lee Hwi Jae is set to return to the television industry after four years.
According to KBS 2TV’s ‘Immortal Songs’ production team on March 5, Lee Hwi Jae will participate in a recording scheduled for March 16 at the KBS New Building Public Hall in Yeouido.
The recording will feature the ‘2026 Celebrity King of Singers Special,’ bringing together entertainers known for their strong vocal abilities. In addition to Lee Hwi Jae, the lineup includes Jo Hye Ryun, Hong Suk Chun, Park Joon Hyung, the musical ‘Haig’ team featuring Song Ilgook and Oh Manseok, Moon Seyoon, Kim Shinyoung, Cheon Dambi, as well as members from KBS 2TV’s ‘Gag Concert’ including Park Sungkwang, Jung Beomgyun, Lee Sanghoon, Seo Sungkyung and Lee Chanseok, along with Lalal.
The ‘Immortal Songs – 2026 Celebrity King of Singers Special’ will air across two episodes on March 28 and April 4.
Lee Hwi Jae had suspended his broadcasting activities after moving to Canada with his family in 2022, which led to speculation about retirement and immigration. Recently, his wife Moon Jung Won drew attention by sharing an update on her social media on March 3 for the first time in nearly four years since August 2022. With Lee Hwi Jae and Moon Jung Won also reportedly spotted in Korea, speculation about his return to broadcasting had been growing.
