With Minhyuk, Naeun and Jaehyun making their exit, fans are thankful that the trio made this show great

Monsta X’s Minhyuk, April’s Naeun and NCT’s Jaehyun are going to be the longest-running hosts of SBS Inkigayo. They helped the show transition smoothly from the live-audience ambiance to no audience last year, but now their time has come to an end. Here’s when MinNaHyun will be emceeing for the last time and how you can live stream it.

The K-pop trio has already won the hearts of K-pop fans with their charming presence and positive attitude. Parting ways with Inkigayo, the music show’s Producing Director (PD) talked about what it meant to have these globally popular K-pop stars host the show for a year and four months.

The music show’s PD Jung Ik Seung stated: “Over the past 20 years, the longest-running MCs who lasted together until the end without partial change are Minhyuk, Naeun, and Jaehyun. With ups and downs as they started as MCs when there were live broadcasts with audiences but experiencing the switch to no audience following COVID-19, I am so thankful that they relayed positive energy to ‘Inkigayo’ viewers for one year and four months," Soompi reported.
