Jang Han-na, a renowned cellist and president of the Seoul Arts Center, revealed an anecdote from her past with Kang Ho-dong, explaining why she had not appeared on entertainment talk shows for a long time.
On the 11th, MBC's variety program 'Radio Star' featured appearances by Jang Han-na, Kim Hyun-chul, Forestella's Go Woo-rim, and Hari Mu.
That day, Jang Han-na recalled her appearance on MBC's 'Hwanggeum Eo-jang - Mureup-pak Do-sa' 17 years ago. She expressed delight at seeing Yoo Se-yoon, who had appeared with her at the time, saying, "That was my first variety show." She then added, "Before filming began, Mr. Kang Ho-dong said, 'Variety shows are done with sincerity. Let's go until the sun rises in the early morning,'" and revealed, "So after that, I didn't do any more entertainment talk shows," eliciting laughter.
Jang Han-na also disclosed the process of her recent appointment as president of the Seoul Arts Center. She said, "I suddenly received a phone call offering me the position of president of the Seoul Arts Center," and added, "Having lived as a performer for 32 years, I was truly surprised by such an unexpected offer."
Regarding the reason she accepted the presidency, she explained, "They said they wanted me to help the Seoul Arts Center leap from being Korea's premier institution to becoming the world's top cultural and artistic institutional investor through the experience and network I have built globally."
Jang Han-na also demonstrated her passion for her duties since taking office. She stated, "I want to get to work early. There are many things I want to do and many things I must do," adding, "The term as president is three years. There is no time. We have to move quickly."
Additionally, she revealed plans to establish an orchestra through a national audition, stating, "There are many outstanding specialists, but they need a stage where they can pursue it as a profession. I plan to travel around the country to find them."
Meanwhile, Jang Han-na was appointed as the 18th president of the Seoul Arts Center this year. She is the first female president and the youngest president since the center's opening.
