The futsal challenge of South Korean soccer legends, who also wear balls and donate, predicted a stronger comeback with the joining of Seol Ki-hyun, Cho Won-hee and Lee Chan-won along with the news of KBS New Year's special.
KBS's new sports entertainment show 「'Bolundier' is a compound word of BALL (football) + VOLUNTER (volunteer), and it is a public entertainment program in which Korean legendary soccer stars and general public's club teams donate by staging a 「Football Match」. In fact, 'Bolundier' accumulated 11 million won in donations through a total of 10 contents from October 11 to December 13 last year, and donated all of it to the National Cancer Center to support the treatment of childhood cancer patients.
In the midst of this, 'Polundier', which has only been seen on KBS Sports YouTube, will meet with more viewers with a special program for the Lunar New Year holiday. In particular, the news that Lee Chan-won, the main character of the 2024 KBS Entertainment Awards, will debut as a soccer commentator through 'All-Rounder Artist'Bolundier' has raised explosive expectations even before the broadcast. Earlier, Lee Chan-won demonstrated his ability as a baseball commentator with his deep baseball knowledge and a force as good as an expert. Whether he will be able to make a successful debut as a soccer commentator can be confirmed on KBS2 'Polundier' on the 27th and 28th.
Existing members Lee Young-pyo, Hyun Young-min, Kim Young-kwang, Baek Ji-hoon, Jeon Autumn and Kim Dong-cheol will stay firmly in the squad. In the absence of Jung Dae-se, Lee Jung-jin and Nam Woo-hyun, Seol Ki-hyun, the main player of the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup semifinal and Hwang Hee-chan's Wolverhampton Wanderers FC senior, and former national team member Cho Won-hee, a former Premier Leaguer YouTuber and currently active as a commentator, were recruited. With all the unprecedented soccer world 'named stars', attention is focusing on whether their heyday can be reproduced here.
Meanwhile, 'Bolundier' caught the eye by releasing two posters full of the cast's various charms. In the background of the futsal stadium, Lee Young-pyo, Seol Ki-hyun, Hyun Young-min, Kim Young-kwang, Cho Won-hee, Baek Ji-hoon, Jeon Autumn, Lee Chan-won, and Nam Hyun-jong, who turned into neat commentator mode, give off passionate energy with clenched fists and thumbs-up poses as if vowing to win. In another poster, players with quite serious expressions showed their determination.
A special feature on the story of Taegeuk Warriors who dream of social contribution through a soccer ball will air on KBS2 at 6:25 p.m. on the 27th and 7:20 p.m. on the 28th.
