With Lee Hyori making her singing debut in Fin.K.L. and YoonA also rising to fame from Girls' Generation as well as starring on variety shows, many are looking forward to their relationship on camera.

Ma PD explained, "Both people aren't closely acquainted with each other however they did meet in a previous broadcast session.  Since Lee Hyori and YoonA are famous girl group members, YoonA immediately accepted the request to appear on the program."

The PD added, "We would like YoonA to work and rest comfortably during her stay here."

Meanwhile, the second season of 'Hyori's Bed & Breakfast' began filming today.  Visitors are expected to stay at Lee Hyori-Lee Sang Soon's Jeju Island home starting on January 9.
