SBS Strong Heart PD says Kang Ho Dong and Yoo Jae Suk's next generation MC will be SJ's Leeteuk

[dreamsbytheedge.livejournal.com]

Park PD met with reporters and he thinks that “after Kang Ho Dong and Yoo Jae Suk, fewer comedians and more singers will be MCs”. Out of the singers he thinks "Leeteuk will be the most successful.”

Right now there are two top MCs. As for a second MC, more singers will be a MC over comedians because comedians aren’t as popular.

The reason the second MC will be singers is because they can sing, dance and act. They are better at a variety of things compared to comedians. Although he is usually a second MC, Leeteuk has the potential to be a main MC. So there is a high percentage he will be the main MC soon.

Boom MCed with Leeteuk on “Strong Heart”. Even though he left for the army, Leeteuk does his little “search” corner a very smart and funny way that people like. There have been a lot of reporters who want to interview Leeteuk.

Leeteuk has said before that he wanted to have his own talk show called the “Leeteuk Show” when he is 40 years old.

Park PD said that Leeteuk MCed well when he MCed for SBS Popular Song for a couple of weeks. Also, he thinks he will be successful on “Strong Heart” and will soon become the best main MC someday.

sorry leeteuk, but I would choose jaesuk or hodong over you as an MC any day of the week.

this.

[downpour.livejournal.com]

i... guess? i mean, he was pretty decent on love fighter, but i guess i can't help but compare him in terms with yoo jae suk and kang ho dong. oh well, i guess only time will tell~

[ellystage.livejournal.com]

Kang Ho Dong & Yoo Jae Suk > Leeteuk (I still love you though!).

Leeteuk has a lot to do.

[hp-eternalglory.livejournal.com]

Leeteuk has a lot to do.
MTE.
i wonder how he gets any rest :/

[bubble-monkey9.livejournal.com]

I like Leeteuk as a MC. He's not as eccentric as YJS & KHD though. Actually, I'm not a big fan of KHD. lol He irritates me with all his yelling.

unforch, i gotta agree with ya there :\
sometimes he makes me cringe
but he *is* pretty entertaining otherwise :P

[black-silver.livejournal.com]

when he is 40 years old

*heart attack*

[proleptical.livejournal.com]

well, he is almost there.


i kid i kid, teukie.

ugh, seriously, thought, the korean age difference = fail. if i ever go to korea i'm gonna tell everyone my regular age not my korea age, lmao.

[black-silver.livejournal.com]

LMFAO don't even joke about that omg i got secondhand D:!!!!

[beauty0fparting.livejournal.com]

he's more of a jaesuk than a hodong. which i think is a good thing. ^^

[lotsoflov-e.livejournal.com]

leeteuk will only get better in years to come~
idgi why some people dont like kang hodong, he always makes me laugh~

[jaele.livejournal.com]

I know some people who just find his...loudness annoying.
Lol I ♥ him though :)

[jaele.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind Leeteuk, I suppose.
But he'd need to step up his game for me to start comparing him to Kang Hodong or Yoo Jaesuk :P

[xiiaoker.livejournal.com]

Teukigayo ! (:
Teukie is really meant to be a good mc i guess.
From before till now~~

Thanks for sharing !

[aunts.livejournal.com]

LOL Teuk just seems really good at leading a show and hosting. Not as ECCENTRIC as the aforementioned two. BUT HEY, WE'LL SEE~ After his army service OH GOD HOW LONG UNTIL HE GOES TT_TT

[0ne0ishiivie.livejournal.com]

hey it's not like they're all retiring TOMORROW. Just that teuk bb has a lot of potential to be successful as a main MC in the future! I'm happy for him cause he loves his MC duties. I'm sure he loves hearing that the industry's best has this much faith in him.

iawtc

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

i wonder if leeteuk would be as charming and "familiar" as jaesuk, cuz that's what i love most about him. jaesuk just has this thing where you WANT to be friends with him and you want him to be on your side even though his looks aren't his strongest points. to me, at least. if leeteuk can have that effect on me then we are solid.

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

also i thought Park PD meant Park Police Department when i first read it haha

[yunsias.livejournal.com]

Eh...not Boom? I would have thought Teuk is the third generation or something. Still, I love him. &hearts

[katzsong.livejournal.com]

How about BoomTeuk! ^_^v

[pinefir.livejournal.com]

yey for eeteuk :D

[voleur.livejournal.com]

(: yayy

[ageneshi.livejournal.com]

OHAI OHNO I LOVE YOU ♥

[honeydice.livejournal.com]

I think Teuk would be really successful in years to come ♥

[chibi-rei.livejournal.com]

It's possible, but my votes are all for Wooyoung. Boy is gonna be a hella awesome MC someday.

[slayerizedcarol.livejournal.com]

holy fuck yes do want that xD

[locofruitcake.livejournal.com]

first thought: NOT BOOM? D: D: D: D: D:

second thought: ohhh, singers



teukie must be really happy to hear this comparison. though i think he has a reeaaally long way to go to reach KHD/YJS' level, there's no harm in a little encouragement now :'D

[ichigo-246.livejournal.com]

Yay for Teukie. :)

His hair in the pic. xD

[katzsong.livejournal.com]

Congrats for Angel Teuk!!! ^_^v
Still a long way to go, but I believe he will make it ( and still have more time to come up with a name other than "Leeteuk Show"...=P)

[peefaparty.livejournal.com]

I am not surprised, since Leeteuk is one of the few idols who MC's really well and he is not dependent on "acting crazy, stupid or eccentric" to host a good show. He is good in moderating a variety show, knows how to divide screen time between guests, knows who doesn't speak that much (and gets them to speak) and doesn't take attention away from guests.

Besides, being a good MC is not about the MC but about the guests and if you look at Kang Ho Dong, Yoo Jae Seuk and Shin Dong Yup, they always make the show about the guests and not themselves which is how Teukie does his MCing. :) And he manages to be funny without overdoing it.

People like Wooyoung, Heechul, Kangin are funny and eccentric but they are too dependent on having a crazy personality while MCing a show and they frequently shift focus from the guests to themselves (doing stupid and crazy things) whenever they do variety shows.

[ahxian94.livejournal.com]

whatever you said (:

[miraculequinox.livejournal.com]

This whole post <3 Yup, Teuk's good at holding the scene and not making things get awkward. He's also really articulate and I just really enjoy the things he say in general :3

[gabbeeee.livejournal.com]

[weerainbow.livejournal.com]

I think Teukie has loads of potential! He's still relatively a newbie but I think in years to come he could definitely be a top MC.

[b-rokenheels.livejournal.com]

He is... indeed ^^

[itangeisha.livejournal.com]

Naice =)
But the show is quite new, i hope they'll wait a bit..
+ Teukkie alone? =(
But, he'll end as a MC, we all know :)

+ after Boom and Teuk's MS, they have to host something together.
FO-EH-VAA.

[maisoui.livejournal.com]

I've always thought he would MC in his later career. I hope he sings more before then, though, because I like that side of him.

lmao oh god, the Leeteuk Show. XDD

[daesung-fanatic.livejournal.com]

I only know of Jaesuk as the National MC

....will he still be the National MC if he isn't MCing.....that...one program....what's it called again???

[slayerizedcarol.livejournal.com]

yaaaaaaay Leetuek! yeees he's got some time to keep on building all that good experience and skills but he's got potential :D remind me to come back in like 20 years for that Leeteuk show yeah thanks lol

[katchi12.livejournal.com]

Still YOO JAESUK :) But i agree, Leeteuk for the next generation :)

[mystic-majestic.livejournal.com]

Teukie certainly has potential to be a great MC one day. ^_^
