[Seoul=RNX News] Reporter Kim Ye-eun = At the MBN reality music show ‘Unforgettable Duet’ production presentation, the ‘Jang Yoon-jung good story’ ‘main character mother and daughter’ will be revealed.

On the upcoming 3rd (Wed) at 10:20 PM, MBN ‘Unforgettable Duet’ will be broadcast, a reality music show where a participant losing memory due to dementia and people remembering him create a touching duet stage. 

After receiving rave reviews just after one episode aired last year during the Chuseok holiday and winning the ‘Content Asia Awards 2025’ Silver Prize, it gained attention as a global empathy project. 

With Jang Yoon-jung as the MC, Jo Hye-ryun, Son Tae-jin, and Oh My Girl Hyojung joining as panels, Sohyang will appear as the ‘Memory Singer’, raising expectations.

This broadcast will feature singer Na Mi-ae, who won a trot survival program after 30 years of obscurity and has been actively working since then, along with her 94-year-old mother who has played the role of a dependable manager by her side. 

Particularly, they are the protagonists of the ‘Jang Yoon-jung good story’ that became a topic of discussion during the production presentation held on the 5th of last month, when Jo Hye-ryun revealed that “Jang Yoon-jung, upon learning of Na Mi-ae’s wedding, did not forget to send a congratulatory gift and wreath”, focusing attention on the appearance of Na Mi-ae and her mother who captivated Jang Yoon-jung’s heart.

Na Mi-ae warmly expresses affection to her mother, who always says to her “My daughter Na Mi-ae” every time she sees her. Her mother shows a bright smile at her daughter’s cuteness, and Jo Hye-ryun can’t hide her pleased smile saying, “Daughters are the best. Daughters are the best.”

Subsequently, the ‘Broadcast Room’, Na Mi-ae and her mother’s playground, is revealed, drawing attention. It’s a practice room set up to spend more time with her mother who has been diagnosed with dementia, where Na Mi-ae sits side by side with her mother on the sofa, holding hands and singing together. 

Jang Yoon-jung, watching the two sing together, exclaims, “Already, the two of you were filming ‘Unforgettable Duet’ at home.”

Meanwhile, Na Mi-ae reveals a behind-the-scenes story of her trot survival win by saying, “Mom got shingles but still came to my trot survival finals performance”, showing her mother’s exceptional love, prioritizing her daughter, bringing the studio to tears.

The story of a love-filled mother and daughter that amazed Jang Yoon-jung is drawing vertical interest in ‘Unforgettable Duet’.
