The Trot Show(2021)

Trot music has been around listeners for decades, providing consolation and cheer people up. On the verge of the second hot wave of trot music, MISS TROT searches the next big superstar. Aspiring female vocalists from all over Korea compete to win the prize: big prize money and a chance to record a hit single. To be the next queen of trot music, the contestants must prove not only that they can sing trot, but also they love and cherish the genre. The show is hosted by Kim Sung-joo feat twelve music masters, from the best K-pop vocalist, mega-songwriter to trot music lovers.

Vying for a coveted spot as trot music's next big thing, 100 singers show off all they've got to capture the celebrity judges' hearts.

The top seven contestants of this trot survival show will be selected as national representatives for the "Trot Girls Japan" survival show. The top seven are scheduled to face each other at the Korea-Japan singer king competition in 2024.

In this singing competition, contestants perform in front of the legends of trot music in hopes of becoming the next rising star in the genre.

"Korea-Japan King of Singers" serves as a competitive arena where the top 7 trot representatives from Korea and Japan go head-to-head in a survival format that transcends borders. With teams composed of the crème de la crème from MBN's "King of Singers" and Fuji TV's "Trot Girls Japan", the show has masterfully orchestrated a series of performances that not only showcase the singers' incredible talents but also reflect the deep emotional resonance and cultural significance of trot music in both countries.

When she's not making ends meet, Choi Choon Hee hones her skills in trot music, an old-fashioned, but heartfelt genre. Her luck turns when she pairs up with Jang Joon Hyun, an arrogant songwriter who excels in pop hits, as well as Jo Geun Woo, a shrewd talent CEO. Choon Hee's star burns hot, but between work and love, can she overcome the haters and trot her way into success?
