[Edaily Starin Gim Ga Yeong Reporter] MBN’s mega-hit trot audition show “Legend of the Unknown” is now accepting applications for Season 2.
MBN announced on the 7th, “We are officially kicking off production on ‘Legend of the Unknown 2,’” adding, “Thanks to the overwhelming support we received for Season 1, we’re returning with an even more expansive universe and fiercer competition.”
They continued, “We plan to present the most intense trot audition show yet, discovering unknown singers and crowning the sole survivor as a legend,” adding, “We ask for the keen interest and support of prospective participants for this season, which will see the birth of a new protagonist to carry on the legacy of the first-ever legend.”
The production team of “Unknown Legend” released a recruitment teaser featuring the entire Top 7 from Season 1: Seong-ri, Haru, Jang Han-byul, Hwang Yoon-sung, Jeong Yeon-ho, Lee Chang-min, and Iru-ne. In the teaser, “First-Generation Legend” Seong-ri asks, “Do you know what we all have in common?” Hwang Yun-seong and Jang Han-byul joke, “Good looks?” and “Sex appeal?” Seong-ri replies seriously, “No. Being unknown.” Iru-ne agrees, saying, “I was unknown, too,” while Haru expresses her gratitude for *Legend of the Unknown*, adding, “But *Legend of the Unknown* changed our lives.” Lee Chang-min, who carved out a new life as a trot singer through “Legend of the Unknown,” actively encouraged participation in Season 2 by saying, “Now it’s your turn.” Finally, led by Jeong Yeon-ho, the Top 7 all shouted together, “‘Legend of the Unknown’ Season 2—take on the challenge right now!”
“Legend of the Unknown” is a massive male trot audition program. It garnered attention with the appearance of Season 1 contestants such as Seong-ri, Haru, Jang Han-byul, Hwang Yoon-sung, Jeong Yeon-ho, Lee Chang-min, and Iru-ne. Buoyed by the success of Season 1, Season 2 is now in production and generating high anticipation.
