Old school idol Tony An is taking his first big step into reality variety shows: he's been chosen to be the MC for MBC's 'Death Camp 24 Hours'! 'Death Camp 24 Hours', which aired its first episode on October 8th, is a variety program that reveals a 24-hour "survival experience" filmed at a designated location. Starring celebrities like Ji Suk Jin, Hwang Hyun Hee, Yang Se Hyung, Lee Kyun, Jung Juri, Han Young, this program features various missions to be completed in the wilderness; that is, a survival race to the top. The production staff carefully admitted, "He completely shattered our expectations of being picky like other old school idol stars and showed us that he was willing to work hard, even during the toughest missions. He wasn't afraid to go beyond his image that he built all these years, and showed great determination in completing 24 hours of rigorous shooting in the wild. We are certain that we will succeed." Tony An then reciprocated the compliment with, "I have high expectations because this is my first time on a real variety program, especially when it's being shot outdoors. I've actually been wanting to do something like this so I don't mind it being rigorous. I think it will be fun. I want to show the real Tony An, whether I look stupid or cool. I want to create a new image." For updated scoops on MBC's 'Death Camp 24hours', stay tuned to allkpop! Source & Photo: Naver
