‘Virtual Gayo Top Ten’ Alexa, revived after 25 years as MC for KBS’ ‘Gayo Top Ten’

[스페셜타임스 정시환 기자] Hello, this is the video news team of Special Times, an internet media company.

This news is related to ‘Virtual Gayo Top Ten’ Alexa and KBS’ ‘Gyo Top Ten’ MCs, who were revived after 25 years.

KBS announced that ‘G-B Label’s singer Alexa will join as the MC for KBS’ ‘Virtual Song Top Ten’. ‘Virtual Song Top Ten’, which is revived on YouTube after 25 years of ending, is a world wide music broadcast based on global charts. In a virtual space called ‘Quantum Oasis’, it has its own worldview of a meeting between a creator, a K-pop artist, and a co-creator, a fan. MC Alexa’s ‘virtual character’ appears with infinite intelligence in this worldview.

Director Yoon Go-woon, the executive producer of ‘Virtual Song Top Ten’, said, ‘Alexa was the first K-pop artist to borrow the concept of ‘artificial intelligence in a multi-universe’, and also held a metaverse fan meeting for the first time as a K-pop artist. He was cast because of his antagonistic move and the point that ‘Virtual Song Top Ten’ is aiming for.” Alexa also said, ‘I am so honored and excited to be taking on the role of MC in the new first revival of ‘Kyo Top Ten’, a KBS legend music show. ‘ he said.

Meanwhile, Alexa recently appeared as the only K-pop artist out of 56 contestants at NBC’s ‘American Song Contest’ in the US, and performed the song ‘Wonderland’ on behalf of her hometown of Oklahoma. Since then, ‘Wonderland’ marked the birth of a ‘global super rookie’ by ranking 2nd on the Finnish iTunes chart, 1st on the Swedish iTunes K-pop chart, and 1st on the US iTunes K-pop chart as of the 24th. In addition, it is proving the topic of discussion on various social media with superior number of views that are several times different than competitors.

In response, GB Label CEO Kim Jun-hong is honored and heartbroken to be able to show off the status of K-Pop in the ‘American Song Contest’, an ambitious work of the NBC channel in the United States. Twenty years have passed since I have been producing various K-pop music videos and living at the forefront of K-pop like a war. As someone who has always been involved in K-pop yesterday and today, I would say this every time I see someone skeptical about the future of K-pop. He said, ‘K-pop will not go backwards in the future, and the era of more evolved K-pop 3.0 will come’. Now, Alexa will do everything in its power to make that dream come true.’ I will do my best to promote K-Pop to the world with ‘Kyo Top Ten’.”
