[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Singer Kim Don-kyu, formerly of the group 015B, has joined as a new friend on 'Burning Youth.'

On the broadcast of SBS variety show 'Burning Youth' on the 2nd, the cast members were shown traveling to Yanggu-gun, Gangwon Province.

In that episode, the production team gave the first hint for the 'new friend' as 'Director Bong Joon-ho.'

The second hint was 'Jung Jae-wook,' and the third hint was '5 consecutive weeks at number 1 on Gayo Top Ten in 1994.'

The new friend introduced by the production team that day was Kim Don-kyu.

Introducing himself, Kim Don-kyu said, "I have been in the industry for 27 years but have only appeared on TV about 10 times. So naturally, people probably don't know me."

He added, "I don't really have much acquaintance with the members of Burning Youth. I don't have close friends here, so I'm worried about how to get close to them."

Also, while touching up his makeup himself, he said, "I just applied this, but I bought it after coming to this neighborhood. It's my first time doing something like this," which brought laughter.
