Mnet M! Countdown's comeback has been catching a number of people's attention, but this will definitely get your attention: it's been confirmed that members from kpop's hottest groups, 2AM, 2PM, CNBLUE and MBLAQ will be hosting this music show! Starting on February 18, M! Countdown will feature 2PM's Nichkhun, Junho & Chansung, 2AM's Jo Kwon & Jinwoon, CNBLUE's Min Hyuk and MBLAQ's Lee Joon & G.O, dubbed the "MCD GUYZ (??? ???)"... talk about testosterone overdose! Mnet will implement a rotation system in which a combination of three or four MCs will be featured each episode, taking a step away from the fixed duo-trio system that we see on other shows. This distinct approach undoubtedly creates a unique stage system that will be anticipated by its audience. CP Kim Giung said,
"These 8 guys represent and are icons of Korea's music industry in the 20th century ... Advocating a global music show (mnet is going to be broadcast globally), we thought that these MC's would be able to make our domestic music industry a hot trend by being accurate and quick on their feet."The February 18 broadcast will also feature a special MC performance stage with all eight members, which is already highly anticipated; this episode is expected to be overwhelmed with viewers. Furthermore, the "Icons of the 20th Century" had a photoshoot in early February for the fashion magazine Singles. The shoot took up fourteen pages of the eight idols and included a funny interview. The Singles issue will be released on the 19th, a day after M!Countdown's first broadcast on the 18th. Who's ready to see these eight idols converge on one stage this Thursday? It's great to know that this isn't just an epic collaboration, but one of many to come. Stay tuned to allkpop for more on the Mnet M! Countdown comeback!
