Go Hyun-jung begins work on new talk show GoShow

Top actress Go Hyun-jung (Daemul, Queen Seon-deok) is embarking on a new project: a talk show for SBS called GoShow, which just filmed its first episode over the weekend on March 24.

Already there’s been a bit of buzz, mostly surrounding speculation of possible high-profile guests. Episode 1’s guest list was announced in previous weeks, and features some big-name stars like Jo In-sung and Chun Jung-myung, both former co-stars (Jo in Spring Days and Chun in What’s Up Fox). LeeSsang’s Gil (also of Infinity Challenge) will be the third guest.

The show and its fixed panel were also the subject of a Vogue photo shoot, which is posted here (love the splashy red). The supporting hosts are ballad singer Yoon Jong-shin (who was a judge on Superstar K2 and 3), comedian Jung Hyung-don (We Got Married), and MC Kim Young-chul.

This is an interesting choice for Go, since A-listers rarely appear on variety or talk shows even as guests, much less as hosts. It’s not unheard of; veteran film actor Park Joong-hoon hosted his own talk show, The Park Joong-hoon Show, and Kim Jung-eun hosted Chocolate, but I believe both shows suffered from somewhat low ratings.

Still, I suppose I can also see the appeal for Go, who is a 20-year industry veteran with a number of memorable drama and film roles already under her belt, a Daesang, and a well-regarded acting reputation. This kind of project offers a change of pace: The show airs once a week on Friday nights, and is relatively low-pressure while allowing her to chat in a free-form, open arena.

GoShow airs its first episode on April 6.

Jo In Sung of WHIB?

I want to see that interview!

Hopefully, someone asks him why he isn't getting back in to a drama/movie with Ha Ji Won yet! :D

Gah, I'm stalking JIS again and he really looks a lot like Jang Geun Seok's older, hotter hyung. (minus The Hair)

Here, found a blog filled with JIS goodies:

Even more speculation about Go Hyun Jung and Jo In Sung's close relationship is bound to come now. And it's only recently that he changed over to her management.

I'm reluctant to watch a show that includes Jung Hyung-don. I watched him in WGM and he was unbelievably gross - and that was before he became paired with one of the SNSD girls for the show.
Dude was a total load - bad enough that his virtual marriage was cancelled after 3 short (loooong) months.

Me too!!!
He was such a royal douchebag to his wife on WGM that I forever see him asshole Jung Hyung-don. The guy puts me off anything he's in now and I tend to avoid his shows. I don't know if it was for laughs or what but on WGM he was just so cruel to his wife.

idk about wgm, but now jung hyung don is one of the most popular in infinity challenge. he's hardworking and has a very earnest attitude on the show. he did not spectacular when he started his career, but indeed hardwork will pay you!

Love her! Wish her the best of luck in everything she does.
My heart breaks knowing she has been separated from her kids because of a bery bery bery bad divorce from a chaebol.

I hope the A listers she draws will bring high ratings.

I wish the divorce was in the US. She would have won or shared custody with the father.

Huge fan of Go Hyun Jung, but I have my doubts whether she could be a good talk show host. She kinda goes into a nervous, giggly mess during fun interviews.

You'll never know! Google again 1-2-3 months after the airing date. Someone might feel compelled to do the translation.

I'm very excited to see her interview with JIS!! That would be awesome since they've been really close friends. I just found out that he transferred from Sidus to GHJ's agency. Interesting.

Yes, and I think its rating was and still is high... He is awkward though XD (still inexperienced) and got a lot of help from other more experienced coMCs.
Probably it will be the same with her too

I think he's very charming on win win. doesn't he more or less play straight man. I saw one episode of the newer version with new cast members ( I can't remember their names now!!!) but I thought the new guy had the wrong energy and comedy style. But it was the first episode. I miss winwin!

Wouldn't call Yoon Jong-shin a 'ballad singer' - he's a singer songwriter type and if he does ballads they come with something else on the side as well.

Love this woman, though, when she talks freely and drops the filter she's amazing. Hope we see the start of a great, candid talk show.

I was hoping for drama news from her. I guess it's still possible but maybe much later in the year.
