[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Lim Juhyung] Park Hyeyoung PD, the wife of DJ Bae Cheolsu, appeared on broadcast for the first time. Park PD is also the first PD of MBC FM4U's 'Bae Cheolsu's Music Camp' (Music Camp), where Bae Cheolsu has appeared for the past 30 years.

On the afternoon of the 26th, MBC's 'Series M' aired a segment showing broadcaster Yoo Heeyeol meeting and talking with Park PD. Park PD, who appeared for the first time on the show, revealed the reason for her broadcast appearance, saying, "Since I was the very first PD of (Music Camp), I couldn't refuse the interview."

Regarding why she recruited Bae Cheolsu during the production of 'Music Camp,' Park PD explained, "When selecting the DJ at that time, we set conditions: the person had to be involved in music, not too young, preferably over 30 years old." She added, "Someone recommended Bae Cheolsu then, so I decided to make an audition tape."

When Yoo Heeyeol asked, "Did you think Bae Cheolsu would do well (on the show)?", Park PD recalled, "I had no idea at all. He just pleaded strongly at first that he really wanted to be the DJ." She continued, "On the day we made the audition tape, he prayed in front of a photo of his late father, saying, 'Please let me do well.' He worked very hard," recalling the situation at that time.
