Singer Tablo will be making his first variety show appearance in 2 years.
SBS ‘Strong Heart‘ PD Park Sang Hyuk informed Newsen on February 29th, “Tablo will be featuring on the YG special on March 15th. All the YG artists will be in attendance for the filming.”
The fact that the episode will be a YG special is enough to garner more attention, but this episode is especially noteworthy as it will be Tablo’s first variety show appearance since his controversy.
In 2010, Tablo’s college credentials were being questioned and some doubt arose of his graduation fromStanford University. Following the rumors that suggested he received a fake college degree, Tablo quietly left the entertainment scene and went through what he calls the most difficult period of his life.
After proving his graduation and clearing his good name, he signed on with his wife Kang Hae Jung‘s label YG Entertainment and released his first solo album ‘Fever’s End‘ last October and stood on stage at SBS ‘Inkigayo‘.
Tablo chose ‘Strong Heart’ for his variety program appearance after his comeback, as he was invited to be a guest on the very first episode of ‘Strong Heart’.
Interestingly enough, the episode will be bittersweet as it will also be MC Lee Seung Gi‘s last shoot. Lee Seung Gi will be leaving his ‘Strong Heart’ post to focus on his new MBC drama, ‘The King 2 Hearts‘.
