KBS ‘Duet Across the Sea’
Singers Park Ki-young and KCM embark on an extreme journey to find their respective partners in ‘Duet Across the Sea’, which will premiere on Thursday, February 26 at 9:50 p.m. on KBS 2TV.
KBS 2TV’s ‘Duet Across the Sea’ is an ‘extreme music journey of overseas stars and K-pop stars’ in which South Korea’s nationally representative artists Park Ki-young and KCM travel to different cultures and, within a set time, form a duet with a local musician. Park Ki-young heads to the Netherlands, and KCM to Vietnam, teaming up with renowned local musicians. From producing a duet track to staging guerrilla concerts, they are expected to carry out a global music project.
Joining them as ‘travel companions’ are ‘mood-maker’ Miki Kwang-soo and ‘PR fairy’ and global content creator Jo Maeryeok. With quick wit and bright energy, Miki Kwang-soo is expected to serve as an on-the-spot savior who communicates with the heart even with 0% foreign-language ability and capably draws audiences. Jo Maeryeok, who already has 1 million subscribers thanks to compelling storytelling and ‘travel·culture·music content’, will also dive into local streets and cafes to conduct guerrilla promotions. In addition, will act as head of promotions by communicating with global fans via SNS and their own channel. Anticipation is building to see what kind of chemistry Park Ki-young and KCM will show with their ‘travel companions’ Miki Kwang-soo&Jo Maeryeok.
Meanwhile, the released ‘Duet Across the Sea’ poster powerfully captures the identity of a program that becomes one through music beyond borders and cultures. As they will be holding guerrilla concerts abroad, the poster captures a live scene where audience and artists breathe as one, raising expectations by previewing a vivid duet stage. In addition, the phrase ‘Succeed in the duet mission within 100 hours!’ intuitively conveys the global project of completing everything from producing a duet song with a local artist to a concert within a set time, adding tension. Another poster features the silhouettes of a guitarist with a guitar and a vocalist holding a microphone, arousing curiosity about which famous local singer will collaborate with Park Ki-young and KCM.
The global music project ‘Duet Across the Sea’, an international co-production involving the Netherlands, Vietnam, and Canada, will premiere on Thursday, February 26, 2026 at 9:50 p.m. on KBS2, and will also be presented via KBS World and the channels of overseas broadcasters.
