‘The Seasons-10CM’s Sseu-dam Sseu-dam’ has wrapped up its 25-week musical journey enjoyed together with viewers.
On the final episode of the KBS 2TV music talk show ‘The Seasons-10CM’s Sseu-dam Sseu-dam’, which aired on the night of the 6th, WOODZ, Lee Dong-hwi, MeloMance’s Kim Min-seok, Daybreak’s Lee Won-seok·Lee Ji-hyung·and Soran’s Ko Young-bae appeared, and special moments unfolded to bring a close to the six-month journey.
The first guest, WOODZ, presented MC 10CM with a bouquet, making the final broadcast feel real. Returning with his first full-length album containing as many as 17 tracks, WOODZ confessed his thirst for music, saying, “Inside I had a rebellious streak that went, ‘I can do things like this too.’” He added with a laugh, “I originally put in 20 songs but took out three,” revealing he had compromised with just the right amount of rebellion. WOODZ, who sometimes fills two hours on live streams with karaoke content, cited military events as the secret behind his wide-ranging song choices. “Since I served as a vocalist in a military band, I had to prepare event songs tailored to each age group. At a kindergarten graduation on base, I sang 10CM’s ‘Phonecert’,” he shared, offering a unique anecdote.
Despite his outstanding vocal ability, WOODZ drew attention by revealing that he in fact came from a practical dance track at an arts high school. Declaring, “Dance is about momentum,” he launched into a parade of freewheeling moves, and after watching, 10CM acknowledged, “You really are a dance major,” while also quipping, “But please come back as a rock star,” sending everyone into fits of laughter. WOODZ then ignited the stage with the title track ‘NA NA NA (Na Na Na)’ from his new full album, unleashing a powerful rock spirit that shook the venue.

The ten-million-viewer actor Lee Dong-hwi took the audience aback by appearing in alien makeup as his character from the soon-to-be-released film ‘Method Acting’. Undimmed by the shocking visuals, he showcased formidable singing with a performance of ‘Stars’ from the musical ‘Les Miserables’, drawing a standing ovation and calls for an encore. He explained, “My major in school included many classes where we sang musical numbers, and I also took classical vocal lessons. I sang this to prove to my parents that the lesson fees were not wasted.”
Even amid candid conversation, Lee Dong-hwi’s alien makeup kept making its presence felt. 10CM said, “I have no intention of crying even once before today’s recording ends,” and asked Lee to perform tears by method acting in his place. Lee replied, “Will that not make it even more so because of me?” then instantly summoned the emotion, delivering hearty laughter right to the end.
MeloMance’s Kim Min-seok visited ‘The Seasons’ to share 10CM’s final broadcast despite his voice being in less-than-ideal condition. Hiding his gratitude under a teasing tone, 10CM asked, “Why do you keep following me around these days?” Kim answered, “You seem cool on the outside but are warm inside, so juniors naturally follow you,” bringing a satisfied smile.
Having appeared in the early days of ‘10CM’s Sseu-dam Sseu-dam’ last September, Kim Min-seok praised 10CM, now the longest-serving MC, saying, “Your eyes are different from back then. I could feel nerves at the time, but now you are overflowing with composure.” He especially added, “Over the six months as MC you revealed so many unexpected sides, which I really liked,” proving himself an avid viewer of ‘The Seasons’. For his final stage, he sang 10CM’s ‘Not That’, expressing respect for his senior artist.

10CM’s inseparable ‘best friends’Daybreak’s Lee Won-seok, Lee Ji-hyung, and Soran’s Ko Young-baealso joined as the final guests. Lee Won-seok said, “On the last episode, the MC’s truly close friends show up,” mentioning pairings like ‘Lee Young-jiproducer Na Young-seok’ and ‘Park Bo-gumIU’. 10CM asked, “Are you saying your level is the same as theirs?” and Ko Young-bae cracked a self-deprecating joke: “As MC, is it not right that this makes you think you should work even harder?” prompting laughter.
A tribute video was also unveiled for 10CM, who set a new record as the longest-serving MC in the history of ‘The Seasons’. Noting that 10CM delivered 85 collaboration stages across 25 episodes, Lee Won-seok acknowledged, “Not just anyone can be an MC,” adding, “It is hugely meaningful that an indie musician hosted a network music program. You gave great courage to the next generation,” offering his respect.
Lee Ji-hyung also referenced the ‘Indie 30th Anniversary Life Music’ segment, adding, “The very fact that 10CM introduced it and shared the stage carries great meaning.” Ko Young-bae then brought 10CM to center stage and led a big round of applause, and together they offered a final goodbye with a performance of ‘A Fiery Farewell’.
Afterward, 10CM switched to his main-artist mode and gifted a special concert to the audience on site and viewers at home. A wellspring of beloved songs, he set the last Friday night ablaze with back-to-back stages of ‘Phonecert’, ‘Do You Like Spring’, ‘Gradation’, ‘Secret Love’, and ‘To Reach You’.
