[Edaily Starin Gim Ga Yeong Reporter] Singer Lee So-ra will appear on tvN’s “You Quiz on the Block” to share her life story.

Episode 351 of tvN’s “You Quiz on the Block,” airing on the 15th, features Detective Son Hee-min, who works on the front lines of drug crime investigations; TVING baseball commentators Hwang Jae-kyun, Yoon Seok-min, Jeong Geun-woo, and Lee Taek-geun; Professor Jeong Il-young, who has rapidly risen to prominence as a mentor to the MZ generation; and singer Lee So-ra, who is making her return after seven years.
Lee So-ra, who welcomed Yoo Jae-suk as a guest on her show “Lee So-ra’s Proposal” 25 years ago, returns this time as a guest on “You Quiz” to share her special reflections. In particular, she is expected to bring laughter by recalling the behind-the-scenes story of Yoo Jae-suk’s legendary performance—where he once made everyone laugh by accidentally forgetting the lyrics. Lee So-ra expressed her trust in Yoo Jae-suk, saying, “If I were to appear on a show, I thought ‘You Quiz’ would be the one,” and Yoo Jae-suk added to the heartwarming moment by responding, “Just as you hugged me 25 years ago, today I’ll hug you back.” Lee So-ra also reveals what prompted her to re-emerge into the public eye after more than six years of seclusion. She’ll share stories from the time she paused her career due to vocal cord nodules, as well as the story of how she resolved to change her life amid a health crisis—noting that “my weight ballooned to 90–100 kg and my blood pressure reached 190.” She’ll also reveal how she’s become a “happiness evangelist” by embracing a vibrant style instead of all-black outfits and facing daily life with a positive mindset.
Viewers will also get a glimpse into Lee So-ra’s musical world, where she has crafted countless classic breakup ballads by pouring her own love stories directly into her lyrics. In particular, she shares the behind-the-scenes story of her new song—her first in seven years—and elicits empathy with a bittersweet confession of unrequited love, revealing, “Actually, there was someone I had a crush on.” Additionally, her performance of “The Wind Blows”—a song capturing memories of a love so intense she could barely breathe—along with her signature live renditions, which Yoo Jae-suk praised as “heart-wrenching,” will leave a deep impression on the audience. In addition to Lee So-ra’s diverse and comforting talk—which has brought solace to many as a radio DJ—her closing remarks, delivered for the first time in 20 years, are set to leave a lasting impression. Her honest confession that “I was worried about being forgotten by people,” along with her heartfelt sentiments toward fans and stories about her close friend Jeong Ji-chan, who was present at the recording, are expected to draw significant attention.
