According to the recently released trailer for tvN's 'Surprising Saturday,' the show, which will be broadcast in Korea on the 10th, will feature many guests representing various generations to commemorate the 400th episode.

This will be Rei's fourth appearance, and she boasts a deep connection with the show, participating in this meaningful 400th special and showing exceptional adaptability as a 'family' member. Notably, Rei, who appeared with IVE members in 2022, 2023, and will again in 2025, will appear this time as a solo guest, showcasing her variety sense once more. The released trailer highlights her excellent catchiness and variety sense, declaring her escape from the 'leftover zone' and attracting attention. Furthermore, she shows chemistry with co-star Wonhee as a senior-junior pair, forming what is called the 'guinea pig zone.' They display a cute synergy, bringing joy to viewers.

IVE Rei),' proving her unique vocal color and solid skills. Through her solo YouTube channel 'Rei Trying,' she showcases diverse content, and last year, she popularized the 'Explosive Guinea Pig' challenge in IVE's 'ATTITUDE,' winning the 'Best Trend Leader' award at the 'TikTok Awards Korea 2025.' She has once again proven her worth as an 'icon of the MZ generation.' Additionally, her group IVE achieved significant success last year with their 3rd and 4th mini-albums, setting a record of '7 consecutive million sellers.' Following that, they started their second world tour 'SHOW WHAT I AM' last October, continuing the tour until 2026, further solidifying the 'IVE syndrome.' Expectations are high for how Rei, who has always captured people's hearts with her unique color, will present herself in this 400th special of 'Surprising Saturday.'
